In this procedure, a model is first trained on counterfeited data synthesised from an out-of-domain dataset, and then fine tuned on a small set of in-domain utterances with a discriminative objective function ...
Corpus-based evaluation results show that the proposed procedure can achieve competitive performance in terms of BLEU score and slot error rate while significantly reducing the data needed to train generators ...

Two data-driven methods for generating paraphrases in dialogue are presented: (a) by sampling from the Nbest list of realisations produced by BAGEL's FLM reranker; and (b) by learning a structured perceptron ...
However, learning to map a single input to a set of surface realisations is a nontrivial machine learning problem. ...

In task-oriented dialogue (ToD), a user holds a conversation with an artificial agent to complete a concrete task. ...
We find that the most critical factor preventing the creation of truly multilingual ToD systems is the lack of datasets in most languages for both training and evaluation. ...
