Corpus of Verbal Response Mode Annotated Utterances

This corpus is a pragmatically-annotated set of utterances. It contains 1,368 annotated utterances from 14 dialogues and several sets of isolated utterances. They are transcripts of spoken dialogues from various domains. Each utterance is annotated with two VRM categories that classify both its literal and pragmatic meaning.

VRM stands for Verbal Response Modes; it is a taxonomy of speech acts for classifying the literal and pragmatic meaning of utterances.

The 8 VRMs are: disclosure, edification, advisement, confirmation, question, acknowledgement, interpretation, reflection.

It is a useful resource for dialogue act recognition and speech act recognition. It was for example used in a project to create tools that enable the detection and connection of speech acts across email messages.
