Learn to Focus: Hierarchical Dynamic Copy Network for Dialogue State Tracking

2021-07-25 · Linhao Zhang, Houfeng Wang

Recently, researchers have explored using the encoder-decoder framework to tackle dialogue state tracking (DST), which is a key component of task-oriented dialogue systems. However, they regard a multi-turn dialogue as a flat sequence, failing to focus on useful information when the sequence is long. In this paper, we propose a Hierarchical Dynamic Copy Network (HDCN) to facilitate focusing on the most informative turn, making it easier to extract slot values from the dialogue context. Based on the encoder-decoder framework, we adopt a hierarchical copy approach that calculates two levels of attention at the word- and turn-level, which are then renormalized to obtain the final copy distribution. A focus loss term is employed to encourage the model to assign the highest turn-level attention weight to the most informative turn. Experimental results show that our model achieves 46.76% joint accuracy on the MultiWOZ 2.1 dataset.
