Papers
- DarwinTOD: LLM-Driven Lifelong Self-evolution for Task-oriented Dialog Systems (2026)
Task-oriented dialog (TOD) systems usually stay frozen after deployment. Pipeline designs pass errors from one module to the next, end-to-end LLM systems do not learn from use, and continual learning still depends on periodic retraining with curated data. DarwinTOD tackles this by letting a TOD system improve itself… - DyBBT: Dynamic Balance via Bandit-inspired Targeting for Dialog Policy with Cognitive Dual Systems (2026)
Deep RL dialog policies for task-oriented systems usually explore with fixed rules such as ϵ-greedy. These rules ignore how the value of exploring shifts over the course of a conversation. Evolutionary alternatives like EIERL scale poorly, and LLM deliberation is too costly to run at every turn. DyBBT treats the… - HiCoLoRA: Addressing Context-Prompt Misalignment via Hierarchical Collaborative LoRA for Zero-Shot DST (2026)
The paper addresses zero-shot dialog state tracking (zs-DST), in which a task-oriented dialog system must fill slots for domains it never saw during training.
