Abstract(in English) This paper proposes a computational model for spoken dialogues, which can solve the problems of understanding and generating utterances. These problems are "ill-posed" in the sense that they have too many degrees of freedom. The model is based on bi-directional theory framework, which uses both upward and downward information flows achieved by the internal forward and inverse models of understanding and generation. By running these processes simultaneously rather than sequentially, we can resolve the ill-posedness of the problems. We will introduce fundamental structure of the system and give an analysis of such phenomena as ellipsis, inversion, and repairs.
