Building Task-Oriented Visual Dialog Systems Through Alternative Optimization Between Dialog Policy and Language Generation (D19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Current approaches to visual dialog learning involve an end-to-end framework that maps the multi-modal context to a deep vector and in order to decode a natural dialog response. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that trains a RL policy for image guessing and a seq2seq model to improve dialog quality. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework achieves state-of-the-art performance on a guessWhich task . it can be applied to a wide range of tasks including assisting blind people . |
LEGOEval: An Open-Source Toolkit for Dialogue System Evaluation via Crowdsourcing (2021.acl-demo)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Currently, researchers use automatic metrics and human evaluation to evaluate dialogue systems. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a Python API to easily evaluate dialogue systems using Amazon Mechanical Turk. |
| Outcome: | The open-source toolkit provides a fast, consistent method for reproducing human evaluation results. |
