Neural Belief Tracker: Data-Driven Dialogue State Tracking

no code implementations • ACL 2017 • Nikola Mrkšić, Diarmuid Ó Séaghdha, Tsung-Hsien Wen, Blaise Thomson, Steve Young

One of the core components of modern spoken dialogue systems is the belief tracker, which estimates the user's goal at every step of the dialogue.
