- End-to-end speech-to-dialog-act recognition (2020 · 11 citations)
Recognizing dialog acts (DAs) from speech usually works as a pipeline. An ASR system writes a transcript, and a separate classifier, trained on clean human transcripts, labels it. Recognition mistakes then spread downstream, and acoustic cues such as pauses are discarded. The authors replace this chain with a single… - Joint Learning of Dialog Act Segmentation and Recognition in Spoken Dialog Using Neural Networks (2017 · 10 citations)
Spoken dialog systems work on ASR output or transcripts, which have no punctuation. Before an utterance can be assigned a dialog act (DA) such as Greeting or Statement, it must first be split into DA units. Zhao and Kawahara treat this splitting as word-level sequence labeling with an "IE" scheme (inside / end of… - A Unified Neural Architecture for Joint Dialog Act Segmentation and Recognition in Spoken Dialog System (2018 · 8 citations)
Spoken dialog systems need to know both where each dialog act (DA) begins and ends inside a turn and which act it is, such as Statement, Backchannel or Yes-No-Question.
