Abstract
Provided is a computer-implemented method, system, and computer program product for generating a goal-oriented dialogue from a grounding document. A processor may analyze a corpus of text. The processor may identify, based on the analyzing, one or more semantic structures that can be used to simulate a dialogue. The processor may generate, based on the identifying, a simulated dialogue, the simulated dialogue including one or more utterances from a simulated agent and one or more utterances from a simulated user to form a dialogue flow.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method for generating a goal-oriented dialogue, the method comprising:
- analyzing a corpus of text;
- identifying, based on the analyzing, one or more semantic structures that can be used to simulate a dialogue;
- and
- generating, based on the identifying, a simulated dialogue, wherein the simulated dialogue comprises one or more utterances from a simulated agent and one or more utterances from a simulated user to form a dialogue flow.
A system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a computer-readable storage medium communicatively coupled to the processor and storing program instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform a method comprising:
- analyzing a corpus of text, wherein the corpus of text comprises a grounding document having a set of semantic structures and a historic dialogue act;
- identifying, based on the analyzing, one or more semantic structures that can be used to simulate a dialogue;
- and
- generating, based on the identifying, a simulated dialogue, wherein the simulated dialogue comprises one or more utterances from a simulated agent and one or more utterances from a simulated user to form a dialogue flow.
A computer program product comprising a computer-readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform a method comprising:
- analyzing a corpus of text, wherein the corpus of text comprises a grounding document having a set of semantic structures and a historic dialogue act;
- identifying, based on the analyzing, one or more semantic structures that can be used to simulate a dialogue;
- and
- generating, based on the identifying, a simulated dialogue, wherein the simulated dialogue comprises one or more utterances from a simulated agent and one or more utterances from a simulated user to form a dialogue flow.
