چکیده

This paper presents our approach to dialog state tracking for the Dialog State Tracking Challenge task. In our approach we use discriminative general structured conditional random fields, instead of traditional generative directed graphic models, to incorporate arbitrary overlapping features. Our approach outperforms the simple 1-best tracking approach.

Sequential Labeling for Tracking Dynamic Dialog States

This paper presents a sequential labeling approach for tracking the dialog states for the cases of goal changes in a dialog session. The tracking models are trained using linear-chain conditional random fields with the features obtained from the results of SLU. The experimental results show that our proposed approach can improve the performances of the sub-tasks of the second dialog state track...

Dialog state tracking using long short-term memory neural networks

Neural network based approaches have recently shown stateof-art performance in the Dialog State Tracking Challenge (DSTC). In DSTC, a tracker is used to assign a label to the state at each moment in an input sequence of a dialog. Specifically, deep neural networks (DNNs) and simple recurrent neural networks (RNNs) have significantly improved the performance of the dialog state tracking. In this...

Joint segmentation and classification of dialog acts using conditional random fields

This paper investigates the use of conditional random fields for joint segmentation and classification of dialog acts exploiting both word and prosodic features that are directly available from a speech recognizer. To validate the approach experiments are conducted with two different sets of dialog act types under both reference and speech to text conditions. Although the proposed framework is ...

Zero-shot semantic parser for spoken language understanding

Machine learning algorithms are now common in the state-ofthe-art spoken language understanding models. But to reach good performance they must be trained on a potentially large amount of data which are not available for a variety of tasks and languages of interest. In this work, we present a novel zero-shot learning method, based on word embeddings, allowing to derive a full semantic parser fo...

Semantic parsing using word confusion networks with conditional random fields

A challenge in large vocabulary spoken language understanding (SLU) is robustness to automatic speech recognition (ASR) errors. The state of the art approaches for semantic parsing rely on using discriminative sequence classification methods, such as conditional random fields (CRFs). Most dialog systems employ a cascaded approach where the best hypotheses from the ASR system are fed into the fo...
