Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) We are developing a spoken dialog system for reminiscence therapy. We propose an example-based dialog system featuring an adaptation method which customizes the dialog for each user. We generate phrases adapted to the user by calculating the cosine similarity between words and substituting user-related words for highly similar words in the original example phrases. We manually evaluated the naturalness of the generated phrases and found that the system could generate natural-sounding phrases. Word2vec can give word distributed representations enabling to calculate addition and subtraction. Using this feature, we were able to derive replacement of words for the example phrases by applying operations to the words used in the original phrases, improving the success rate for generating natural-sounding phrases.
