February has been completely dedicated to the evaluation of our system with external non-expert users (Task 4.3), and to additional testing of the wizard component (Task 4.2).

UNIRM1 has worked on the design of an experimental evaluation with non-expert participants. Based on the experience acquired through the first exploratory evaluation.The whole process has been split into a new lexical corpus collection, this time based on a web-based architecture to guarantee access to a large audience, and the setup of a usability study involving 12 people that will take place in April.

MV has successfully evaluated the new wizard component through internal validation and testing.

UNIRM1 will present Speaky for Robots at “Robots on Tour”, on March 9th 2013, and at RomeCup, on March 22nd 2013.
