- An End-to-end Approach for Handling Unknown Slot Values in Dialogue State Tracking (2018 · 187 citations)
Most dialogue state trackers assume a fixed ontology that lists every value a slot can take. In industrial settings this list is often unavailable, very large, or constantly changing. End-to-end trackers that work without an SLU module therefore cannot output values they have never been told about. Xu and Hu address… - WebAgent-R1: Training Web Agents via End-to-End Multi-Turn Reinforcement Learning (2025 · 36 citations)
Reinforcement learning has improved LLMs mostly on single-turn problems like math. Web agents are harder to train this way: they must make long sequences of decisions on changing pages, and earlier RL approaches for this setting depended on offline or off-policy pipelines with extra components.
