Unsupervised Dialog Structure Learning
@inproceedings{Shi2019UnsupervisedDS, title={Unsupervised Dialog Structure Learning}, author={Weiyan Shi and Tiancheng Zhao and Zhou Yu}, booktitle={NAACL-HLT}, year={2019} }
Learning a shared dialog structure from a set of task-oriented dialogs is an important challenge in computational linguistics. The learned dialog structure can shed light on how to analyze human dialogs, and more importantly contribute to the design and evaluation of dialog systems. We propose to extract dialog structures using a modified VRNN model with discrete latent vectors. Different from existing HMM-based models, our model is based on variational-autoencoder (VAE). Such model is able to… Expand
