Speech Aware Dialog System Technology Challenge (DSTC11)
Hagen Soltau, Izhak Shafran, Mingqiu Wang +6
Most research on task oriented dialog modeling is based on written text input. However, users interact with practical dialog systems often using speech as input. Typically, systems…
AnyTOD: A Programmable Task-Oriented Dialog System
Jeffrey Zhao, Yuan Cao, Raghav Gupta +6
We propose AnyTOD, an end-to-end, zero-shot task-oriented dialog (TOD) system capable of handling unseen tasks without task-specific training. We view TOD as a program executed by…
Beyond the Imitation Game: Quantifying and extrapolating the capabilities of language models
Aarohi Srivastava, Abhinav Rastogi, Abhishek Rao +448
Language models demonstrate both quantitative improvement and new qualitative capabilities with increasing scale. Despite their potentially transformative impact, these new capabil…
Show, Don't Tell: Demonstrations Outperform Descriptions for Schema-Guided Task-Oriented Dialogue
Raghav Gupta, Harrison Lee, Jeffrey Zhao +3
Building universal dialogue systems that operate across multiple domains/APIs and generalize to new ones with minimal overhead is a critical challenge. Recent works have leveraged…
Description-Driven Task-Oriented Dialog Modeling
Jeffrey Zhao, Raghav Gupta, Yuan Cao +6
Task-oriented dialogue (TOD) systems are required to identify key information from conversations for the completion of given tasks. Such information is conventionally specified in…
A Unified Approach to Entity-Centric Context Tracking in Social Conversations
Ulrich Rückert, Srinivas Sunkara, Abhinav Rastogi +2
In human-human conversations, Context Tracking deals with identifying important entities and keeping track of their properties and relationships. This is a challenging problem that…
