Adversarial learning for neural dialogue generation

J Li, W Monroe, T Shi, S Jean, A Ritter… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2017 - arxiv.org
In this paper, drawing intuition from the Turing test, we propose using adversarial training for
open-domain dialogue generation: the system is trained to produce sequences that are …

Deep reinforcement learning for dialogue generation

J Li, W Monroe, A Ritter, M Galley, J Gao… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2016 - arxiv.org
Recent neural models of dialogue generation offer great promise for generating responses
for conversational agents, but tend to be shortsighted, predicting utterances one at a time …

A simple, fast diverse decoding algorithm for neural generation

J Li, W Monroe, D Jurafsky - arXiv preprint arXiv:1611.08562, 2016 - arxiv.org
In this paper, we propose a simple, fast decoding algorithm that fosters diversity in neural
generation. The algorithm modifies the standard beam search algorithm by adding an inter …

The dialogue dodecathlon: Open-domain knowledge and image grounded conversational agents

K Shuster, D Ju, S Roller, E Dinan, YL Boureau… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2019 - arxiv.org
We introduce dodecaDialogue: a set of 12 tasks that measures if a conversational agent can
communicate engagingly with personality and empathy, ask questions, answer questions by …

Scientific information extraction with semi-supervised neural tagging

Y Luan, M Ostendorf, H Hajishirzi - arXiv preprint arXiv:1708.06075, 2017 - arxiv.org
This paper addresses the problem of extracting keyphrases from scientific articles and
categorizing them as corresponding to a task, process, or material. We cast the problem as …

Coherent dialogue with attention-based language models

H Mei, M Bansal, M Walter - Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on …, 2017 - ojs.aaai.org
We model coherent conversation continuation via RNN-based dialogue models equipped
with a dynamic attention mechanism. Our attention-RNN language model dynamically …

Self-supervised dialogue learning

J Wu, X Wang, WY Wang - arXiv preprint arXiv:1907.00448, 2019 - arxiv.org
The sequential order of utterances is often meaningful in coherent dialogues, and the order
changes of utterances could lead to low-quality and incoherent conversations. We consider …
