- Abstract: Purpose: The purpose of this article is to propose, based on a model of an
interaction semantics, a certain understanding of the ''meaning'' of the
exchanged characters within an interaction.
Methodology: Based on a model of system interaction, I structure the model of
interaction semantics similar to the semantics of a formal language: first, I
identify adequate variables in my interaction model to assign values to, and
second, I identify the interpretation function to provide meaning. Thereby I
arrive at a model of interaction semantics which, in the sense of the late
Ludwig Wittgenstein, can do without a 'mental' mapping from characters to
concepts.
Findings: The key findings are a better understanding of the tight relation
between the informatical approach to model interactions and game theory; of the
central 'chicken and egg' problem, any natural language has to solve, namely
that to interact sensibly, we have to understand each other and to acquire a
common understanding, we have to interact with each other, which I call the
'simultaneous interaction and understanding (SIAU)' problem; why ontologies are
less 'semantic' then their proponents suggest; and how 'semantic'
interoperability is to be achieved.
Value: The main value of the proposed model of interaction semantics is that
it could be applied in many different disciplines and therefore could serve as
a basis for scientists of natural sciences and humanities as well as engineers
to understand each other more easily talking about semantics, especially with
the advent of cyber-physical systems.

We show how these primitives can be combined into a set of interaction patterns.
The motivation behind this is to provide a compact generalisation of existing practices.
We discuss how this approach can be used towards a design space for Human-AI interactions.

MindDial is a novel conversational framework that can generate situated free-form responses with theory-of-mind modeling.
We introduce an explicit mind module that can track the speaker's belief and the speaker's prediction of the listener's belief.
Our framework is applied to both prompting and fine-tuning-based models, and is evaluated across scenarios involving both common ground alignment and negotiation.

We propose a framework that integrates deep learning into the human-in-the-loop interactive sensemaking pipeline.
Deep learning extracts meaningful representations from raw data, which improves semantic interaction inference.
Semantic interactions are exploited to fine-tune the deep learning representations, which then improves semantic interaction inference.

Humans have a rich representation of the entities in their environment.
If robots need to interact successfully with humans, they need to represent entities, attributes, and generalizations in a similar way.
In this work, we address the problem of how to obtain these representations through human-robot interaction.

Taking explicit contextualized semantics as a complementary input, the inferential module of SAIN enables a series of reasoning steps over semantic clues.
Our model achieves significant improvement on 11 tasks including machine reading comprehension and natural language inference.
