The WOOL Platform's roots are in the scientific community, with its initial version being developed in the context of a European Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation project. On this page, we provide an overview of the scientific literature and other material that either describes (parts of) the WOOL technology, or uses the WOOL Platform for studies on conversational-based human computer interaction.
