Report from the NSF Future Directions Workshop on Automatic Evaluation of Dialog: Research Directions and Challenges
Shikib Mehri, Jinho Choi, Luis Fernando D'Haro +13
This is a report on the NSF Future Directions Workshop on Automatic Evaluation of Dialog. The workshop explored the current state of the art along with its limitations and suggeste…
Variational Cross-domain Natural Language Generation for Spoken Dialogue Systems
Bo-Hsiang Tseng, Florian Kreyssig, Pawel Budzianowski +4
Cross-domain natural language generation (NLG) is still a difficult task within spoken dialogue modelling. Given a semantic representation provided by the dialogue manager, the lan…
MultiWOZ -- A Large-Scale Multi-Domain Wizard-of-Oz Dataset for Task-Oriented Dialogue Modelling
Paweł Budzianowski, Tsung-Hsien Wen, Bo-Hsiang Tseng +4
Even though machine learning has become the major scene in dialogue research community, the real breakthrough has been blocked by the scale of data available. To address this funda…
Large-Scale Multi-Domain Belief Tracking with Knowledge Sharing
Osman Ramadan, Paweł Budzianowski, Milica Gašić
Robust dialogue belief tracking is a key component in maintaining good quality dialogue systems. The tasks that dialogue systems are trying to solve are becoming increasingly compl…
Neural User Simulation for Corpus-based Policy Optimisation for Spoken Dialogue Systems
Florian Kreyssig, Inigo Casanueva, Pawel Budzianowski +1
User Simulators are one of the major tools that enable offline training of task-oriented dialogue systems. For this task the Agenda-Based User Simulator (ABUS) is often used. The A…
Uncertainty Estimates for Efficient Neural Network-based Dialogue Policy Optimisation
Christopher Tegho, Paweł Budzianowski, Milica Gašić
In statistical dialogue management, the dialogue manager learns a policy that maps a belief state to an action for the system to perform. Efficient exploration is key to successful…
