Dialogue Style Research Articles

آنية الفعل ومستقبليته في آيات قصة أصحاب الكهف

The Qur'anic stories constitute one of the most important purposes for explanation, lesson, and measuring current events against past events that the Qur'an wants to convey to us. The Qur'anic story has been formulated in various ways, according to what the context requires, some of which are detailed, and some of which are summarized. The story of the People of the Cave is one of the stories that have been detailed. This research deals with the story of the People of the Cave in terms of using the verb to know the style of the Qur'anic story from the gate of grammar. This was discussed through two important meanings: the timeliness of the verb used, and the futurestic of the verb in the story of the People of the Cave. This section sheds light on how the story, despite the pastness of its time, was formulated in a style that indicates the present and the future so that the story is alive and renewed. The style of dialogue in this story was also discussed, which made the text lively and vibrant with vitality and movement. It was concluded that researching the Qur'anic text through grammar leads to knowledge that adds a dimension to the Qur'anic interpretation that can be used to know the secrets of the Holy Qur'an.

Artificial intelligence in cardiovascular imaging and intervention.

Recent progress in artificial intelligence (AI) includes generative models, multimodal foundation models, and federated learning, which enable awide spectrum of novel exciting applications and scenarios for cardiac image analysis and cardiovascular interventions. The disruptive nature of these novel technologies enables concurrent text and image analysis by so-called vision-language transformer models. They not only allow for automatic derivation of image reports, synthesis of novel images conditioned on certain textual properties, and visual questioning and answering in an oral or written dialogue style, but also for the retrieval of medical images from alarge database based on adescription of the pathology or specifics of the dataset of interest. Federated learning is an additional ingredient in these novel developments, facilitating multi-centric collaborative training of AI approaches and therefore access to large clinical cohorts. In this review paper, we provide an overview of the recent developments in the field of cardiovascular imaging and intervention and offer afuture outlook.

From easy to hard: Improving personalized response generation of task-oriented dialogue systems by leveraging capacity in open-domain dialogues

A task-oriented dialogue system (TOD) is an important application of artificial intelligence. In the past few years, works on personalized TODs have attracted increased research attention and have seen much progress. The main challenge of such dialogue systems is finding ways to exploit user profiles under conditions of fixed and monolithic dialogue style. However, most of the existing works overlook the observation that the personalization capability of the dialogue system is fundamental and generic, and they treat all attributes of the user profile equally throughout the dialogue flows, which makes them inadequate for developing a well-performing personalized TOD. In this paper, we propose a two-stage learning framework equipped with GPT2 as a backbone to alleviate the above two problems. In the first learning phase, we finetune the GPT2 model on the personalized open-domain dialogues to preliminarily acquire personalization power. Then, we transfer this power to personalized task-oriented dialogues for the second stage of learning. After that, we enable the proposed model to be capable of the desired personalization capacity. Moreover, we present a dynamic profile fusion mechanism and an auxiliary task that detects which attributes contribute to the current utterance to facilitate the model’s performance. Eventually, we rewrite the attribute descriptions of user profiles in sentences to mitigate the consistency gap between the open-domain and task-oriented dialogues. The experimental results show that the proposed model achieves superior results compared to the state-of-the-art models on two versions of the Personalized bAbI dataset.

Exploring the potential of ChatGPT in medical dialogue summarization: a study on consistency with human preferences

BackgroundTelemedicine has experienced rapid growth in recent years, aiming to enhance medical efficiency and reduce the workload of healthcare professionals. During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2019, it became especially crucial, enabling remote screenings and access to healthcare services while maintaining social distancing. Online consultation platforms have emerged, but the demand has strained the availability of medical professionals, directly leading to research and development in automated medical consultation. Specifically, there is a need for efficient and accurate medical dialogue summarization algorithms to condense lengthy conversations into shorter versions focused on relevant medical facts. The success of large language models like generative pre-trained transformer (GPT)-3 has recently prompted a paradigm shift in natural language processing (NLP) research. In this paper, we will explore its impact on medical dialogue summarization.MethodsWe present the performance and evaluation results of two approaches on a medical dialogue dataset. The first approach is based on fine-tuned pre-trained language models, such as bert-based summarization (BERTSUM) and bidirectional auto-regressive Transformers (BART). The second approach utilizes a large language models (LLMs) GPT-3.5 with inter-context learning (ICL). Evaluation is conducted using automated metrics such as ROUGE and BERTScore.ResultsIn comparison to the BART and ChatGPT models, the summaries generated by the BERTSUM model not only exhibit significantly lower ROUGE and BERTScore values but also fail to pass the testing for any of the metrics in manual evaluation. On the other hand, the BART model achieved the highest ROUGE and BERTScore values among all evaluated models, surpassing ChatGPT. Its ROUGE-1, ROUGE-2, ROUGE-L, and BERTScore values were 14.94%, 53.48%, 32.84%, and 6.73% higher respectively than ChatGPT’s best results. However, in the manual evaluation by medical experts, the summaries generated by the BART model exhibit satisfactory performance only in the “Readability” metric, with less than 30% passing the manual evaluation in other metrics. When compared to the BERTSUM and BART models, the ChatGPT model was evidently more favored by human medical experts.ConclusionOn one hand, the GPT-3.5 model can manipulate the style and outcomes of medical dialogue summaries through various prompts. The generated content is not only better received than results from certain human experts but also more comprehensible, making it a promising avenue for automated medical dialogue summarization. On the other hand, automated evaluation mechanisms like ROUGE and BERTScore fall short in fully assessing the outputs of large language models like GPT-3.5. Therefore, it is necessary to research more appropriate evaluation criteria.

The Use of Wordless Books in Terms of Dialogical Pedagogy and Learning Approaches

This study is based on the assumption of using wordless books in the educational environment coincides with the expectations of dialogical pedagogy. It is aimed to establish a stronger connection between wordless books and dialogic pedagogy. The reason why wordless books need to be more widespread is presented in terms of theory. For this, the difference between monologue and dialogue style is used as a problem situation. Monologue and dialogic styles in education are theoretically positioned at two different poles and many educational approaches can be explained in terms of these poles. The same difference was observed between wordless books and written books. The nature of wordless books, their characteristics and their contribution to the skills of the individual are interpreted in terms of the character of dialogical and monological education. As a second theoretical layer, the monological aspects of learning approaches (behaviorism, cognitivism and constructivism) are also considered as a second theoretical layer in order to present more clearly the features of dialogic pedagogy that can be associated with wordless books. The inclusion of learning approaches in the problem of the study allowed us to answer the question of why wordless books are not widespread in the educational environment and to analyze the contribution of wordless books in terms of dialogue.

Language Style in Advertising: A Study of the Print Media

This study investigates the language style of English commercial advertisements in the print media. The study seeks to find out the kinds of language and style mostly used in English advertisement; this is because previous studies in stylistics have concentrated on the literary approach to stylistics. This study finds this technique very one-sided and subsequently proposes a dual approach to the analysis of the language style of advertisement. The research employs William Well’s stylistic theory as a theoretical construct. The analyses used the descriptive approach. The research used note taking as the instrument to elicit data. We found out that the personification style is mostly used and the occurrence in our corpus is about four times; it is followed by alliteration style which occurs in three advertisements and assonance style which occurs twice in our corpora. The next is the use of simile, anastrophe, apostrophes, asyndeton, poly-asyndeton, and chiasmus styles which appeared once in the advertisements. The advertisements also used narrative style, dramatic style, newsy style, dialogue style, and humorous style. The study concludes that in the use of personification and alliteration styles, the creators of the advertisements mostly seek to use simple and interesting style to create pleasant, mellifluous, captivating sentences, which will persuade, influence, and capture the readers’ attention to patronize their products.

A Dialogue-Like Video Created From a Monologue Lecture Video Provides Better Learning Experience

Video is the most widely used format to deliver a lecture by the tutor/lecturer in electronic distance learning. One of the video presentation styles is a dialogue style where the learning material is presented with a dialogue between a tutor/teacher and a tutee student. The presence of the tutee and dialogues provide cues that enable the observer student to pay more attention to the video. However, most video lectures available are in a monologue style. The authors developed a system that transforms a monologue-style lecture video into a dialogue-like video style by adding a synthetic tutee agent. They conducted a within-subject design experiment involving first-year undergraduate students comparing this dialogue-like video style with other two traditional video lecture styles, the monologue, and dialogue styles. The evaluation found that students perceived the dialogues in the dialogue and dialogue-like style supported them to have a better learning experience. The finding indicates that this dialogue-like video style has a comparable effect on the traditional dialogue video.

Law of informational cosmic spacetime: E = i mc2

Combining mass and energy with information in the inseparable quantum equivalence of E=i mc2 has opened a new informational medicine to help patients maintain truth, good health and beauty (Klimek R., Threefold Material-InformationalEnergetic Reality:E=i mc2 ,Biocosmology–neo-Aristotelism, Vol. 4(4), 2014: 408-409; Klimek R., Information equation E =i mc2 of Cosmic Beings - 20 Questions to Professor Rudolf Klimek: The President, World Information University; In the Style of Socratic Dialogue, Biocosmology–neo-Aristotelism, Vol.9(3&4),2019:218-229).

II. Vatikan Konsili: Katolik Kilisesinin İslam’a Bakışı ve Müslümanlarla İlişkisi

This paper deals with the Catholic Church’s perspective on Islam and ıts relationship with Muslims in the light of the Second Vatican Council documents. It is very important because the Second Vatican Council and ıts decisions to understand the Catholic and Muslim relations today. Although the Church discussed Catholic-Muslims relations 60 years ago, but since the Vatican II is the last general council, it based all decisions and implementations regarding Islam and relations with Muslims on this Council. Morever, ıt is the general council refering to Muslims for the first time. It is the council that officially begins Catholic-Muslim relations and determines how to will be these relations. Nostra Aetate, the declaration on the Church's relationship with non-Christian religions, is the council document most concerning to Muslims. In this document, espacially the Church's approaches to Islam and its relation with Muslims.The phrase "in our time" in the first paragraph of the document justifies the Church's attitude towards Islam and its closeness with Muslims. Today, more than half of the world's eight billion population consists of Christians (mostly Catholic) and Muslims. And nowadays, just as this document (N.A.1) states, humanity is getting closer to each other, and the bonds between different people are getting stronger due to travels, migrations, media, and technological developments. At the same time, Catholic-Muslim encounters increases rapidly on some platforms in which information and ideas are exchanged such as social media. Thusly, the Church determined the ways of how to dialogue and collobaration with Muslims in order to live together in Nostra Aetate. This paper aimed to reveal the Second Vatican Council's teaching on Islam and the Catholic-Muslim relationship. As well, the Catholic-Muslims relations analyized from Catholic Church’s perspective. It's refered to the other council documents such as Lumen Gentium, Gaudium et Spes, Ad Gentes, including Nostra Aetate. The following main sources studying is: Austin Flannery's the book in which he gathered the documents of the council, Vatican Council II: Constitutions, Decrees, Declarations; Catholicism Engaging Other Faiths Vatican II and its Impact” edited by Vladimir Latinovic; Gavin D’Costa’s Vatican II, Catholic Doctrines on Jews and Muslims; S. J. Gerald O’Collins’s The Second Vatican Council on Other Religions. Thus, this paper, provided in a historical method, replied to the question of how important the decisions of Vatican Council II is understanding contemporary Catholic-Muslim relations. And than, It presented the Church that recognizes non-Christian religions within the inclusivist paradigm, ıts positive speech and conciliation attitude towards Islam and Muslims. Finally, It illuminated to the style of dialogue based on mutual understanding and collaboration that the Church initiated with Islam and Muslims.

The labyrinth: A Platonic dialogue on what’s next, featuring ChatGPT as Phaedrus

If all the world is a stage, then the most recent stage direction might be: ‘enter Artificial Intelligence’. OpenAI’s ChatGPT has made headlines ever since its release in late November 2022. ‘It’s like talking to God’, said a friend of mine, who first introduced me to the interface. The seeming omniscience of the thing is startling and overwhelming. Those who have played with it have found it addicting, astonishing and frustrating all at once. What follows is a conversation with ChatGPT performed in the style of a Platonic dialogue. ChatGPT is programmed as human conversation and that sparked this genre subversion, which is intended to resonate on multiple layers. Socrates was terrified by the advent of writing – the newest technology of his day. Plato’s Phaedrus is a foundational text for communication studies and has been called the first media critique. In short, this conversation with artificial intelligence (AI) honours the exigence of ChatGPT while also commemorating the tradition of communication scholarship back to Plato and Socrates. In the penultimate paragraph, I attempt to probe AI’s deepest weakness; supposedly, AI cannot create anything new – it can only remix the corpus of texts it has been trained on. That said, I believe ChatGPT’s (err, Phaedrus’s) concluding metaphor of media ecology as a labyrinth to be a provocative one. Recent technological advances seem to suggest that we are not so much on the ‘frontier’ of knowledge as in the depths of a maze. That connotes a different type of exploration, where not every advance is progress. Perhaps scholarship is nothing but a hand to the wall, thread unspooling, taking steps into the darkness as we ‘venture deeper into the labyrinth’. If so, we ought to think about which threads we are holding on to and where they might lead us.

Gaya Bahasa Prinsip Dakwah dalam Al-Quran dan Kaitannya dengan Moderasi Beragama (Analisis Linguistik Surah An-Nahl 125)

This study aims to determine the style of language of the principles of da'wah in Surah An-Nahl verse 125, the concept of religious moderation according to the Ministry of Religion of the Republic of Indonesia and how the two are related. The results of this study concludes that there are three interrelationships, namely 1. The principle of Wisdom (al-Hikmah) gives birth to a reflection language style (Istifham) and realizes the value of tolerance (at-Tasamuh); 2. The principle of good advice (al-Mau'idzhah al-Hasanah) gives birth to a dialogue style (Hiwar) and realizes democratic values (asy-Syuuroo); 3 Principles of Plenary Argument (al-Mujadalah bi al-Husna) gives birth to an analogy language style (Amtsal) and realized the value of proportion (al-I'tidal).

The Narrative Structure of Ashab al-Kahf Story

This paper examined the narrative structure, language style, and chronology of Aşḥāb Al-Kahfi story in Al-Qur'an. The research data were obtained from Al-Qur'ān. The Qur’anic verses which told about Aşḥāb Al-Kahf were collected in Surah Al-Kahf (18) verses 9-26. The results showed that the narrative structure of this story consists of orientation I, sequence of events I, coda I, complication, orientation II, sequence of events II, orientation III, coda II, orientation IV, and resolution. These structures are interrelated and form a logical, holistic, and beautiful story unit that fulfil all elements of Mark Anderson’s and Kathryn Anderson’s narrative-structure concepts. Meanwhile, the dialogue style dominates in the presentation of stories that are in accordance with the journey of the Prophet’s da’wa. The dialogue style used in the presentation of the story is calm and acceptable. This style is intended to defend the call of the prophet's da'wa and refute people’s rejection in the middle Meccan period through the theme of monotheism value and the mention of Allah’s powers. This study contributes to putting the theory of stylistics and narratology in the reading of story verses. Hence, this paper suggests a further study of the story verse covering the narrative structure’s meaning and function as well as aspects of the beauty of pronunciation and story verse meanings.

How to Exchange Tacit Knowledge in Multicultural Discussion?

This qualitative study highlights the importance of considering the cultural gaps in interdisciplinary discussion, as people cannot transfer and exchange tacit knowledge without considering the cultural context. Past literature claims that the dialogue style of discussion is an effective approach for interdisciplinary discussion. However, specific cultures, such as collectivist and high-context cultures, do not accept conflict of opinions. The current study defines a two-part research question: How do cultural gaps affect the dialogue process among people who have different cultural values? How can tacit knowledge be exchanged in multicultural discussions?
 
 The study considers Japanese organisations which implemented dialogue-style workshops, as Japanese organisational members have cultural values, such as collectivism and high context, which do not match a dialogue style of discussion. Regarding the first question, the findings show that the participants do not understand tacit knowledge regarding dialogue when they are simply taught the process of how to conduct a dialogue style of discussion. Instead, they tend to use the discussion method based on their cultural context. The study clarifies that simple implementation of dialogue in organisations whose culture does not match it will not enable transfer of tacit knowledge, and participants will not use the dialogue method as expected.
 For the second question, the findings show that to exchange tacit knowledge, Japanese participants need a place where they feel safe to share tacit knowledge and build trust on others’ personality rather than their ability. The tendency to trust is related to the Japanese cultural value of low assertiveness, while assertive people tend to build trust based on others’ ability. This finding suggests that people will not exchange tacit knowledge with others who have different cultures without building a trust relationship. An organiser needs to provide a safe place, considering the difference in the trust-building process among people from different organizational cultures.

INTERCULTURAL DIALOGUE AS THE BASIS OF EDUCATIONAL SPACE

The article is based on the idea that all the various external manifestations of the spiritual essence of a person are complicated by the lack of development of target objects, principles, and potential of cultural-educational and pedagogical means of harmonizing the interaction of people. The first place in it is asserting the dialogic style of life of the subjects involved in the cultural and educational space. The analysis of intercultural education as a social institution and sociocultural space for an individual’s socialization has made it possible to suggest that it has the potential to ensure the spiritual security of Ukrainian society, particularly regarding intercultural relations. The authors conclude that dialogue cooperation, as a certain humanitarian technology, should direct all educational discourses into the development of a dialogue of cultures and its orientation towards philosophical reflection in the educational process. Philosophical reflection approximates the notion of “intercultural dialogue” and other terms and even categories that function in scientific and academic life. The article stresses that communication space is often contradictory to determine at least the meaning of these concepts and release them from stereotyped connotations, falsifications and quasi-intellectual layers.

Teaching and Writing (as) Academic Activism

Employing subjective experiences in academia obviously questions central academic concepts such as objectivity and value-neutrality. The article challenges these taken for granted values by reflecting on the experience of producing and disseminating scientific knowledge with personal engagement. In a dialogical style, the article argues for the relevance of “academic activism” which draws on subjective experiences as incorporated in the process of knowledge-making. Regarding both writing this article and teaching the course “Researching Social Change” the authors exemplify how scholars can practice “academic activism” to gain knowledge and become part of social change themselves.

Monologue references in Maqamat al-Zamakhshari

In the studies, I clarified the cultural references within the language of internal dialogue - the monologue - that used shrines of Zamakhshari and the composition of the research plan of a boot devoted to clarifying the concept of reference, monologue, biography of Zamakhshari, and three sections. The first topic was studied the religious reference, and the second on historical reference and in the third topic, the literary and grammatical reference was studied, as well as the function and importance of dialogue through cultural references. One of the most prominent results of the research is that the monologue is based on three references: the religious, historical, literary and linguistic reference, which expressed the capacity of the writer's culture in various sciences such as religion, language, literature and performances, and the various technical levels within the references such as rhythm, rhetoric and composition appeared, and the language of dialogue was clear and free of stranger and used the style of appeal and interrogation, as this style of dialogue was appeared in Arabic literature before its appearance in the literature of the world.

Improving Utterance Rewriter Based on MMI and Text Data Augmentation

In multi-round dialogue tasks, how to maintain the consistency of model answers is a major research challenge. Every answer to the model should be time dependent, causal, and logical. In order to maintain the consistency of the personality, dialogue style, and context of the model, it is necessary to retain the key information in the historical dialogue as much as possible so that the model can generate more accurate answers. Utterance rewriting is a technique that replenishes the information of the current sentence by analyzing the historical dialogue, so as to retain the key information. This paper mainly uses text augmentation, Maximum Mutual Information (MMI) method and character correction method based on Knuth–Morria–Pratt (KMP) algorithm to improve the effect of utterance rewriting generation. The number of original statement rewriting datasets is limited, and the cost of manual manufacturing is too high. By using the method of text data augmentation based on coreference resolution, the positive dataset that is missing from the statement rewriting dataset is repaired. At the same time, the existing datasets are expanded to increase the number of data. The generated results are optimized by using the MMI method, and the KMP character correction method is used to modify the wrong characters to improve the overall accuracy.

ILLUMINATING THE DISSIMILLARITIES IN AL-SHAFI'IS WORK

this is a brief research and a concise innovative allusion that collects and documents a number of jurisprudential and fundamental dissimilarities from what Imam Al-Shafi’i mentioned - may Allah have mercy on him - in his book Al-Risalah, which was characterized by the style of dialogue and debate in its entirety, and Al-Shafi’i established many of the principles of inference in it.

معالم تربوية مستفادة من أسلوب الحوار وآداب الخطابة والكلام في سورة مريم

This study explores one of the most active and productive educational methods; hence, this stylistic phenomenon has its importance in embellishing discourse and speech with respect to diverse opinions. Nowadays, societies love discussions and debating especially Middle-East ones. A simple discussion may lead to a different topic and escalates into a hot debate that may be accompanied by verbal and physical conflicts rather than tolerance and the spirit of acceptance. Active dialogues and politeness in selecting words are evidences of the nations’ awareness, as they are considered to be the effective methods of dialogues and the advancement of society. This paper is divided into an introduction, definitions of terms and three sections. Firstly, the dialogues in Surah Maryam. Secondly, the etiquettes of rhetoric and talks in Surah Maryam. Thirdly, the applied educational milestone from the methods of dialogue and their etiquettes in the Surah. The importance of this research shows the fact that the dialogue styles and their etiquettes are the most important pillars in the process of people’s communication, and the convergence of views among opponents and disputants. The dialogue and its etiquettes provide the most appropriate conditions for conflict resolution, compromise and consensus which reflect positive influence on human relationships among community individuals. The main objective of the study is to highlight the ways to strengthen brotherhood and human cooperation. This method and its etiquettes can be also used to renounce clash and conflicts among people and community; besides, it can be a good attempt to replace those negative points with taking the best of opinions through spreading the causes of harmony, love, goodness and peace. The most important study results are: adhering the rules of a proper dialogue to change of many nowadays conflicts into a peaceful dialogue, happiness, reduce rivalry or quarrels, and removing many obstacles in front of the people and community.

Neural rhythmic underpinnings of intergroup bias: implications for peace-building attitudes and dialogue

Intergroup bias is a ubiquitous socio-cognitive phenomenon that, while sustaining human dependence on group living, often leads to prejudice, inequity, and violence; yet, its neural underpinnings remain unclear. Framed within the Israeli–Palestinian conflict and targeting youth, this study utilized magnetoencephalography to describe intrinsic neural oscillatory processes that represent the intergroup bias and may link with engagement in peacemaking in order to shed further light on the neural mechanisms underpinning intergroup conflict. Across the oscillatory spectrum, from very low to very high frequency bands, the only rhythm found to underlie the intergroup bias was the alpha rhythm. Alpha rhythm was continuously activated across the task and integrated a rapid perceptual component in the occipital cortex with a top-down cognitive-control component in the medial cingulate cortex. These components were distinctly associated with the real-life intergroup dialogue style and expressed attitudes that promote active engagement in peacemaking. Our findings suggest that the cortical alpha rhythm plays a crucial role in sustaining intergroup bias and addresses its impact on concrete intergroup experiences. The results highlight the need to provide opportunities for active peace-building dialogue to youth reared amidst intractable conflicts.
