Dialogue Act Classification

23 papers with code • 5 benchmarks • 8 datasets

Dialogue act classification is the task of classifying an utterance with respect to the function it serves in a dialogue, i.e. the act the speaker is performing. Dialogue acts are a type of speech acts (for Speech Act Theory, see Austin (1975) and Searle (1969)).

A Universality-Individuality Integration Model for Dialog Act Classification

no code yet • 13 Apr 2022

Experiments were made over two most popular benchmark data sets SwDA and MRDA for dialogue act classification, and the results show that extracting the universalities and individualities between cues can more fully excavate the hidden information in the utterance, and improve the accuracy of automatic dialogue act recognition.

Speaker Clustering in Textual Dialogue with Utterance Correlation and Cross-corpus Dialogue Act Supervision

no code yet • ACL ARR January 2022

We propose a textual dialogue speaker clustering model, which groups the utterances of a multi-party dialogue without speaker annotations, so that the real speakers are identical inside each cluster.
