Dynamic Memory Enhanced Transformer for End-to-end Task-Oriented Dialogue System
share
Recent studies try to build task-oriented dialogue system in an end-to-end manner and the existing works make great progress on this task. However, there are still two issues need to consider: (1) How to effectively represent the knowledge bases and incorporate it into dialogue system. (2) How to efficiently reason the knowledge bases given queries. To solve these issues, we design a novel Transformer-based Dynamic Memory Network (DMN) with a novel Memory Mask scheme, which can dynamically generate the context-aware knowledge base representations, and reason the knowledge bases simultaneously. Furthermore, we incorporate the dynamic memory network into Transformer and propose Dynamic Memory Enhanced Transformer (DMET), which can aggregate information from dialogue history and knowledge bases to generate better responses. Through extensive experiments, our method can achieve superior performance over the state-of-the-art methods.
