Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Persuasive automated dialogue systems are a popular way to influence people's behavior and decision making. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a context-aware persuasion strategy selection module to persult users . they also propose a persuasiveness prediction model to automatically evaluate the persuasiveness of generated text. |
| Outcome: | The proposed system can achieve better performance on several automated evaluation metrics than baseline models. |

PEPDS: A Polite and Empathetic Persuasive Dialogue System for Charity Donation (2022.coling-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Empathy plays a crucial role in mediating the persuasive effects as it evokes cognitive and emotional processing conducive to persuasion. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a maximum likelihood estimate loss based model to design an efficient reward function consisting of five sub rewards viz. persuasion, emotion, Politeness-Strategy Consistency, Dialogue-Coherence and Non-repetitiveness. |
| Outcome: | The proposed system increases the rate of persuasive responses with emotion and politeness acknowledgement compared to the current state-of-the-art dialogue models while maintaining the linguistic quality. |

| Challenge: | Persuasive dialogue models rely on utterance semantic matching and a key aspect has been ignored . compared with utterrance semantics, conversation strategies are high-level concepts, which can be informative and provide complementary information to achieve effective persuation. |
| Approach: | They propose to model conversation semantics and strategies to match them using a BERT-like module and an auto-regressive predictor. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model improves state-of-the-art by 5% on a small and 37% on 'large' datasets. |
Empathetic Persuasion: Reinforcing Empathy and Persuasiveness in Dialogue Systems (2022.findings-naacl)

| Challenge: | Existing models for persuasive dialogue lack emotion annotated data, so we use transformers to provide emotion based feedbacks to our RL agent. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a language model to generate empathetic persuasive dialogues . they annotate existing data with emotions and build transformers to provide feedbacks based on emotion. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model increases the rate of generating persuasive responses compared to state-of-the-art models while maintaining the language quality. |
Persuading across Diverse Domains: a Dataset and Persuasion Large Language Model (2024.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Persuasive dialogue requires multi-turn following and planning abilities to achieve the goal of persuating users. |
| Approach: | They propose a general method to learn a persuasive model based on LLMs through intent-to-strategy reasoning, which summarizes the intent of user’s utterance and reasons next strategy to respond. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method outperforms baselines on automatic evaluation metric Win-Rate and human evaluation on two datasets. |

| Challenge: | Emotional expressions can be used to express the speaker’s emotion more directly than using only emotion expression in the text. |
| Approach: | They built a speech dialogue corpus in a persuasive scenario that uses emotional expressions to build a system with emotional expression. |
| Outcome: | The proposed system can express the speaker's emotion more directly than using only emotion expression in the text, and the results show that the collected emotional expressions with their speeches have higher emotional expressiveness for expressing the system's emotions to users. |
