GIVEWelcome to the Challenge on Generating Instructions in Virtual Environments

The second installment of the GIVE Challenge (GIVE-2) has been completed. We are grateful to the more than 1800 players from 39 countries who participated. As a small thank you, three randomly selected participants will receive $50 Amazon.com gift vouchers within the next few days.

The purpose of the GIVE Challenge was to evaluate how well natural language generation (NLG) systems can give instructions that help users perform a task in a virtual 3D world. In GIVE-2, seven NLG systems from the following institutions were evaluated:
  • Complutense University of Madrid, Spain;
  • Dublin Institute of Technology, Ireland;
  • Heidelberg University, Germany;
  • INRIA Grand-Est, France;
  • Saarland University, Germany; and
  • Trinity College Dublin, Ireland.

Your participation has helped researchers evaluate and improve their work. At some future time, we will invite you to participate in a new round of the GIVE Challenge, and you can come back to check whether they managed to make these systems better.
