A dialogue is essentially a multi-turn interaction among interlocutors. Effective evaluation metrics should reflect the dynamics of such interaction. Existing automatic metrics are focused very much on the turn-level quality, while ignoring such dynamics. To this end, we propose DynaEval, a unified automatic evaluation framework which is not only capable of performing turn-level evaluation, but also holistically considers the quality of the entire dialogue. In DynaEval, the graph convolutional network (GCN) is adopted to model a dialogue in totality, where the graph nodes denote each individual utterance and the edges represent the dependency between pairs of utterances. A contrastive loss is then applied to distinguish well-formed dialogues from carefully constructed negative samples. Experiments show that DynaEval significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art dialogue coherence model, and correlates strongly with human judgements across multiple dialogue evaluation aspects at both turn and dialogue level.

An automated metric to evaluate dialogue quality is vital for optimizing data driven dialogue management. The common approach of relying on explicit user feedback during a conversation is intrusive and sparse. Current models to estimate user satisfac
tion use limited feature sets and rely on annotation schemes with low inter-rater reliability, limiting generalizability to conversations spanning multiple domains. To address these gaps, we created a new Response Quality annotation scheme, based on which we developed turn-level User Satisfaction metric. We introduced five new domain-independent feature sets and experimented with six machine learning models to estimate the new satisfaction metric. Using Response Quality annotation scheme, across randomly sampled single and multi-turn conversations from 26 domains, we achieved high inter-annotator agreement (Spearmans rho 0.94). The Response Quality labels were highly correlated (0.76) with explicit turn-level user ratings. Gradient boosting regression achieved best correlation of ~0.79 between predicted and annotated user satisfaction labels. Multi Layer Perceptron and Gradient Boosting regression models generalized to an unseen domain better (linear correlation 0.67) than other models. Finally, our ablation study verified that our novel features significantly improved model performance.
Dialogue Act (DA) classification is the task of classifying utterances with respect to the function they serve in a dialogue. Existing approaches to DA classification model utterances without incorporating the turn changes among speakers throughout t
he dialogue, therefore treating it no different than non-interactive written text. In this paper, we propose to integrate the turn changes in conversations among speakers when modeling DAs. Specifically, we learn conversation-invariant speaker turn embeddings to represent the speaker turns in a conversation; the learned speaker turn embeddings are then merged with the utterance embeddings for the downstream task of DA classification. With this simple yet effective mechanism, our model is able to capture the semantics from the dialogue content while accounting for different speaker turns in a conversation. Validation on three benchmark public datasets demonstrates superior performance of our model.
Non-task oriented dialogue systems have achieved great success in recent years due to largely accessible conversation data and the development of deep learning techniques. Given a context, current systems are able to yield a relevant and fluent respo
nse, but sometimes make logical mistakes because of weak reasoning capabilities. To facilitate the conversation reasoning research, we introduce MuTual, a novel dataset for Multi-Turn dialogue Reasoning, consisting of 8,860 manually annotated dialogues based on Chinese student English listening comprehension exams. Compared to previous benchmarks for non-task oriented dialogue systems, MuTual is much more challenging since it requires a model that can handle various reasoning problems. Empirical results show that state-of-the-art methods only reach 71%, which is far behind the human performance of 94%, indicating that there is ample room for improving reasoning ability. MuTual is available at https://github.com/Nealcly/MuTual.
Training machines to understand natural language and interact with humans is an elusive and essential task in the field of artificial intelligence. In recent years, a diversity of dialogue systems has been designed with the rapid development of deep
learning researches, especially the recent pre-trained language models. Among these studies, the fundamental yet challenging part is dialogue comprehension whose role is to teach the machines to read and comprehend the dialogue context before responding. In this paper, we review the previous methods from the perspective of dialogue modeling. We summarize the characteristics and challenges of dialogue comprehension in contrast to plain-text reading comprehension. Then, we discuss three typical patterns of dialogue modeling that are widely-used in dialogue comprehension tasks such as response selection and conversation question-answering, as well as dialogue-related language modeling techniques to enhance PrLMs in dialogue scenarios. Finally, we highlight the technical advances in recent years and point out the lessons we can learn from the empirical analysis and the prospects towards a new frontier of researches.
For multi-turn dialogue rewriting, the capacity of effectively modeling the linguistic knowledge in dialog context and getting rid of the noises is essential to improve its performance. Existing attentive models attend to all words without prior focu
s, which results in inaccurate concentration on some dispensable words. In this paper, we propose to use semantic role labeling (SRL), which highlights the core semantic information of who did what to whom, to provide additional guidance for the rewriter model. Experiments show that this information significantly improves a RoBERTa-based model that already outperforms previous state-of-the-art systems.
