Prompt-based Generative Approach towards Multi-Hierarchical Medical Dialogue State Tracking
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
Then we propose a Prompt-based Generative Approach which can generate slot values with multi-hierarchies incrementally using a top-down approach. ...
Therefore, we first define a multi-hierarchical state structure. We annotate and publish a medical dialogue dataset in Chinese. ...
The task of defining, extracting, and maintaining such a structure is called Dialogue State Tracking (DST) in task-oriented dialogue systems. ...
