Challenge: Sequence to sequence (Seq2Sequeq) models fail to meet the diverse requirements for different conversation scenarios, such as customer service and chatbot.
Approach: They propose two optimized criteria for Sequence to sequence (Seq2Sequeq) to meet different conversation scenarios, i.e., maximum generated likelihood for specific-requirement scenario, and conditional value-at-risk for diverse-requrement scenarios.
Outcome: The proposed models satisfies diverse requirements for different conversation scenarios and yields better performances than existing models.
