基于信息状态的主动对话管理,提升任务型对话成功率

Collaborative and Proactive Management of Task-Oriented Conversations

  • 构建信息状态驱动的对话管理框架,融合预设槽位与文本成分
  • 在MultiWOZ测试中实现最高信息量与成功率,优于已有方法
  • 适合需要精准任务规划的智能助手研发人员参考

任务型对话系统(TOD)通过自然语言交互完成特定任务。随着大语言模型(LLMs)在自然语言处理中的优异表现,当前多数TOD以LLM为核心。然而,主动规划对任务完成至关重要,现有系统常忽视目标感知的规划机制。本文提出一种基于信息状态的对话管理模型,引入构造性中间信息以增强规划能力。首先定义预设槽位和文本部分的信息成分来建模用户偏好;随后识别关键情境并构建对应的信息成分,生成有限的信息状态;再设计对话动作以实现状态转移及操作流程;最终建立更新策略。该模型利用LLM的上下文学习能力实现,通过指定预设槽位生成数据库查询,并按文本成分的匹配度顺序返回实体,确保偏好与结果一致。在MultiWOZ完整测试集上评估,单轮对话仅涉及一个领域,实验显示在信息量和任务成功率上达到最优,显著优于先前方法。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Task oriented dialogue systems (TOD) complete particular tasks based on user preferences across natural language interactions. Considering the impressive performance of large language models (LLMs) in natural language processing (NLP) tasks, most of the latest TODs are centered on LLMs. While proactive planning is crucial for task completion, many existing TODs overlook effective goal-aware planning. This paper creates a model for managing task-oriented conversations, conceptualized centered on the information state approach to dialogue management. The created model incorporated constructive intermediate information in planning. Initially, predefined slots and text part informational components are created to model user preferences. Investigating intermediate information, critical circumstances are identified. Informational components corresponding to these circumstances are created. Possible configurations for these informational components lead to limited information states. Then, dialogue moves, which indicate movement between these information states and the procedures that must be performed in the movements, are created. Eventually, the update strategy is constructed. The created model is implemented leveraging in-context learning of LLMs. In this model, database queries are created centered on indicated predefined slots and the order of retrieved entities is indicated centered on text part. This mechanism enables passing the whole corresponding entities to the preferences in the order of congruency. Evaluations exploiting the complete test conversations of MultiWOZ, with no more than a domain in a conversation, illustrate maximal inform and success, and improvement compared with previous methods.
