An End-to-End Neural Dialog State Tracking for Task-Oriented Dialogs

Dialog state tracking in spoken dialog system is the task that tracks the flow of a dialog and grasps what a user wants from the utterance precisely. Since the dialog success is related to catching the want of the user, dialog state tracking is a necessary component for spoken dialog systems. This paper proposes a neural dialog state tracker with the attention mechanism for focusing on valuable words and the hierarchical softmax for efficient training of the tracker. In addition, the proposed tracker combines a natural language understanding module and a dialog state module in an end-to-end style. As a result, the error propagation within a dialog system is minimized. To prove the effectiveness of the proposed model, we do experiments on dialog state tracking in the human-human task-oriented dialogs. Our experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms both the neural tracker without the attention mechanism and that without the hierarchical softmax.
