Long-Tailed Question Answering in an Open World
Yi Dai, Hao Lang, Yinhe Zheng +2
Real-world data often have an open long-tailed distribution, and building a unified QA model supporting various tasks is vital for practical QA applications. However, it is non-tri…
Domain Incremental Lifelong Learning in an Open World
Yi Dai, Hao Lang, Yinhe Zheng +3
Lifelong learning (LL) is an important ability for NLP models to learn new tasks continuously. Architecture-based approaches are reported to be effective implementations for LL mod…
SpokenWOZ: A Large-Scale Speech-Text Benchmark for Spoken Task-Oriented Dialogue Agents
Shuzheng Si, Wentao Ma, Haoyu Gao +7
Task-oriented dialogue (TOD) models have made significant progress in recent years. However, previous studies primarily focus on datasets written by annotators, which has resulted…
CGoDial: A Large-Scale Benchmark for Chinese Goal-oriented Dialog Evaluation
Yinpei Dai, Wanwei He, Bowen Li +5
Practical dialog systems need to deal with various knowledge sources, noisy user expressions, and the shortage of annotated data. To better solve the above problems, we propose CGo…
SPACE-3: Unified Dialog Model Pre-training for Task-Oriented Dialog Understanding and Generation
Wanwei He, Yinpei Dai, Min Yang +4
Recently, pre-training methods have shown remarkable success in task-oriented dialog (TOD) systems. However, most existing pre-trained models for TOD focus on either dialog underst…
SPACE-2: Tree-Structured Semi-Supervised Contrastive Pre-training for Task-Oriented Dialog Understanding
Wanwei He, Yinpei Dai, Binyuan Hui +6
Pre-training methods with contrastive learning objectives have shown remarkable success in dialog understanding tasks. However, current contrastive learning solely considers the se…
GALAXY: A Generative Pre-trained Model for Task-Oriented Dialog with Semi-Supervised Learning and Explicit Policy Injection
Wanwei He, Yinpei Dai, Yinhe Zheng +9
Pre-trained models have proved to be powerful in enhancing task-oriented dialog systems. However, current pre-training methods mainly focus on enhancing dialog understanding and ge…
Task-Oriented Dialogue System as Natural Language Generation
Weizhi Wang, Zhirui Zhang, Junliang Guo +3
In this paper, we propose to formulate the task-oriented dialogue system as the purely natural language generation task, so as to fully leverage the large-scale pre-trained models…
Transferable Dialogue Systems and User Simulators
Bo-Hsiang Tseng, Yinpei Dai, Florian Kreyssig +1
One of the difficulties in training dialogue systems is the lack of training data. We explore the possibility of creating dialogue data through the interaction between a dialogue s…
Preview, Attend and Review: Schema-Aware Curriculum Learning for Multi-Domain Dialog State Tracking
Yinpei Dai, Hangyu Li, Yongbin Li +4
Existing dialog state tracking (DST) models are trained with dialog data in a random order, neglecting rich structural information in a dataset. In this paper, we propose to use cu…
A Survey on Dialog Management: Recent Advances and Challenges
Yinpei Dai, Huihua Yu, Yixuan Jiang +3
Dialog management (DM) is a crucial component in a task-oriented dialog system. Given the dialog history, DM predicts the dialog state and decides the next action that the dialog a…
Elastic CRFs for Open-ontology Slot Filling
Yinpei Dai, Yichi Zhang, Hong Liu +3
Slot filling is a crucial component in task-oriented dialog systems that is used to parse (user) utterances into semantic concepts called slots. An ontology is defined by the colle…
Deep learning for language understanding of mental health concepts derived from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Lina Rojas-Barahona, Bo-Hsiang Tseng, Yinpei Dai +5
In recent years, we have seen deep learning and distributed representations of words and sentences make impact on a number of natural language processing tasks, such as similarity,…
Tracking of enriched dialog states for flexible conversational information access
Yinpei Dai, Zhijian Ou, Dawei Ren +1
Dialog state tracking (DST) is a crucial component in a task-oriented dialog system for conversational information access. A common practice in current dialog systems is to define…
