In putting together the accepted papers for the workshop, we encountered an uncommon but very welcome turn of events: we received many more papers with high recommendations from our Program Committee than we had anticipated. If we had kept the number of papers accepted to the maximum of previous SIGdial Workshops, several papers that had received all recommendations of accept would have been rejected. Given the abundance of favorably rated papers, we felt strongly that they should be given a chance for presentation. Besides the 18 full papers that were accepted for long presentation (out of 46 submitted), we therefore also accepted a number of papers for short presentation and created two poster sessions, to accommodate the extra girth. In addition, 5 out of 18 submitted short papers and demo descriptions were accepted as such. This was all in keeping with the tradition and purpose of the SIGdial venue to showcase promising new research approaches in discourse and dialogue, as well as state-of-the-art implementations.", "cite_spans": [], "ref_spans": [], "eq_spans": [], "section": "Introduction", "sec_num": null } ], "back_matter": [], "bib_entries": { "BIBREF1": { "ref_id": "b1", "title": "Making Grounding Decisions: Data-driven Estimation of Dialogue Costs and Confidence Thresholds Gabriel Skantze", "authors": [], "year": null, "venue": "", "volume": "", "issue": "", "pages": "", "other_ids": {}, "num": null, "urls": [], "raw_text": "Making Grounding Decisions: Data-driven Estimation of Dialogue Costs and Confidence Thresholds Gabriel Skantze . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .", "links": null }, "BIBREF2": { "ref_id": "b2", "title": "On the Training Data Requirements for an Automatic Dialogue Annotation Technique Carlos D.
