Enhancing Multi-turn Dialogue Modeling with Intent Information for E-Commerce Customer Service
international conference natural language processing(2020)
摘要
Nowadays, it is a heated topic for many industries to build intelligent conversational bots for customer service. A critical solution to these dialogue systems is to understand the diverse and changing intents of customers accurately. However, few studies have focused on the intent information due to the lack of large-scale dialogue corpus with intent labelled. In this paper, we propose to leverage intent information to enhance multi-turn dialogue modeling. First, we construct a large-scale Chinese multi-turn E-commerce conversation corpus with intent labelled, namely E-IntentConv, which covers 289 fine-grained intents in after-sales domain. Specifically, we utilize the attention mechanism to extract Intent Description Words (IDW) for representing each intent explicitly. Then, based on E-IntentConv, we propose to integrate intent information for both retrieval-based model and generation-based model to verify its effectiveness for multi-turn dialogue modeling. Experimental results show that extra intent information is useful for improving both response selection and generation tasks.
