Towards a Fully Unsupervised Framework for Intent Induction in Customer Support Dialogues

28 Jul 2023  ·  Rita Costa, Bruno Martins, Sérgio Viana, Luisa Coheur ·

State of the art models in intent induction require annotated datasets. However, annotating dialogues is time-consuming, laborious and expensive. In this work, we propose a completely unsupervised framework for intent induction within a dialogue. In addition, we show how pre-processing the dialogue corpora can improve results. Finally, we show how to extract the dialogue flows of intentions by investigating the most common sequences. Although we test our work in the MultiWOZ dataset, the fact that this framework requires no prior knowledge make it applicable to any possible use case, making it very relevant to real world customer support applications across industry.
