This paper presents an end-to-end response selection model for Track 1 of the 7th Dialogue System Technology Challenges (DSTC7). This task focuses on selecting the correct next utterance from a set of candidates given a partial conversation. We propose an end-to-end neural network based on enhanced sequential inference model (ESIM) for this task. Our proposed model differs from the original ESIM model in the following four aspects. First, a new word representation method which combines the general pre-trained word embeddings with those estimated on the task-specific training set is adopted in order to address the challenge of out-of-vocabulary (OOV) words. Second, an attentive hierarchical recurrent encoder (AHRE) is designed which is capable to encode sentences hierarchically and generate more descriptive representations by aggregation. Third, a new pooling method which combines multi-dimensional pooling and last-state pooling is used instead of the simple combination of max pooling and average pooling in the original ESIM. Last, a modification layer is added before the softmax layer to emphasize the importance of the last utterance in the context for response selection. In the released evaluation results of DSTC7, our proposed method ranked second on the Ubuntu dataset and third on the Advising dataset in subtask 1 of Track 1.

We present our work on Track 2 in the Dialog System Technology Challenges 7 (DSTC7). The DSTC7-Track 2 aims to evaluate the response generation of fully data-driven conversation models in knowledge-grounded settings, which provides the contextual-rel
evant factual texts. The Sequenceto-Sequence models have been widely used for end-to-end generative conversation modelling and achieved impressive results. However, they tend to output dull and repeated responses in previous studies. Our work aims to promote the diversity for end-to-end conversation response generation, which follows a two-stage pipeline: 1) Generate multiple responses. At this stage, two different models are proposed, i.e., a variational generative (VariGen) model and a retrieval based (Retrieval) model. 2) Rank and return the most related response by training a topic coherence discrimination (TCD) model for the ranking process. According to the official evaluation results, our proposed Retrieval and VariGen systems ranked first and second respectively on objective diversity metrics, i.e., Entropy, among all participant systems. And the VariGen system ranked second on NIST and METEOR metrics.
Retrieval-based dialogue systems select the best response from many candidates. Although many state-of-the-art models have shown promising performance in dialogue response selection tasks, there is still quite a gap between R@1 and R@10 performance.
To address this, we propose to leverage linguistic coordination (a phenomenon that individuals tend to develop similar linguistic behaviors in conversation) to rerank the N-best candidates produced by BERT, a state-of-the-art pre-trained language model. Our results show an improvement in R@1 compared to BERT baselines, demonstrating the utility of repairing machine-generated outputs by leveraging a linguistic theory.
Popular QA benchmarks like SQuAD have driven progress on the task of identifying answer spans within a specific passage, with models now surpassing human performance. However, retrieving relevant answers from a huge corpus of documents is still a cha
llenging problem, and places different requirements on the model architecture. There is growing interest in developing scalable answer retrieval models trained end-to-end, bypassing the typical document retrieval step. In this paper, we introduce Retrieval Question-Answering (ReQA), a benchmark for evaluating large-scale sentence-level answer retrieval models. We establish baselines using both neural encoding models as well as classical information retrieval techniques. We release our evaluation code to encourage further work on this challenging task.
Building ASR models across many languages is a challenging multi-task learning problem due to large variations and heavily unbalanced data. Existing work has shown positive transfer from high resource to low resource languages. However, degradations
on high resource languages are commonly observed due to interference from the heterogeneous multilingual data and reduction in per-language capacity. We conduct a capacity study on a 15-language task, with the amount of data per language varying from 7.6K to 53.5K hours. We adopt GShard [1] to efficiently scale up to 10B parameters. Empirically, we find that (1) scaling the number of model parameters is an effective way to solve the capacity bottleneck - our 500M-param model already outperforms monolingual baselines and scaling it to 1B and 10B brought further quality gains; (2) larger models are not only more data efficient, but also more efficient in terms of training cost as measured in TPU days - the 1B-param model reaches the same accuracy at 34% of training time as the 500M-param model; (3) given a fixed capacity budget, adding depth works better than width and large encoders do better than large decoders; (4) with continuous training, they can be adapted to new languages and domains.
Person search aims at jointly solving Person Detection and Person Re-identification (re-ID). Existing works have designed end-to-end networks based on Faster R-CNN. However, due to the parallel structure of Faster R-CNN, the extracted features come f
rom the low-quality proposals generated by the Region Proposal Network, rather than the detected high-quality bounding boxes. Person search is a fine-grained task and such inferior features will significantly reduce re-ID performance. To address this issue, we propose a Sequential End-to-end Network (SeqNet) to extract superior features. In SeqNet, detection and re-ID are considered as a progressive process and tackled with two sub-networks sequentially. In addition, we design a robust Context Bipartite Graph Matching (CBGM) algorithm to effectively employ context information as an important complementary cue for person matching. Extensive experiments on two widely used person search benchmarks, CUHK-SYSU and PRW, have shown that our method achieves state-of-the-art results. Also, our model runs at 11.5 fps on a single GPU and can be integrated into the existing end-to-end framework easily.
