User Simulation for Spoken Dialog System Development
Abstract:
In this talk, I will present my thesis study on investigating how to
evaluate and how to build user simulations to help dialog system
development. When evaluating user simulations, I use both human judges and
automatic evaluation measures to assess the simulation model qualities.
When building user simulations, I examine three factors that impact
simulation models in the tasks of dialog strategy learning and dialog
system development.
The talk is based on the author's ACL 2009 paper.
