Challenge: Existing studies have tried to introduce discrete or Gaussian-based latent variables to address the one-to-many problem, but the diversity is limited.
Approach: They propose a diffusion model to enhance the diversity of dialogue generation by using continuous latent variables instead of discrete ones.
Outcome: The proposed model greatly enhances diversity of dialog response while keeping the coherence.
