Challenge: Recent studies have focused on developing persona consistent dialogue models . order sensitivity affects the quality and consistency of generated response .
Approach: They propose a model-agnostic framework to improve persona consistent dialogue response generation by concatenating persona texts and dialogue history as a single input sequence.
Outcome: The proposed framework outperforms existing models on the Persona-Chat dataset and shows that it is more robust under different persona orders and more consistent with the persona profile.

A Personalized Dialogue Generator with Implicit User Persona Detection (2022.coling-1)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing models for personalized dialogue generation tend to be self-centered, with little care for the user in the dialogue.
Approach: They propose a personalized dialogue generator by detecting an implicit user persona and using conditional variational inference to model the user's potential persona with no external knowledge.
Outcome: The proposed model improves both automatic metrics and human evaluations by focusing on the user's persona and posterior-discriminated regularization.
