- Abstract summary: Negotiation is a complex social interaction that encapsulates emotional encounters in human decision-making.
Virtual agents that can negotiate with humans are useful in pedagogy and conversational AI.
We analyze the extent to which emotion attributes extracted from the negotiation help in the prediction.

- Abstract: Negotiation is a complex social interaction that encapsulates emotional
encounters in human decision-making. Virtual agents that can negotiate with
humans are useful in pedagogy and conversational AI. To advance the development
of such agents, we explore the prediction of two important subjective goals in
a negotiation - outcome satisfaction and partner perception. Specifically, we
analyze the extent to which emotion attributes extracted from the negotiation
help in the prediction, above and beyond the individual difference variables.
We focus on a recent dataset in chat-based negotiations, grounded in a
realistic camping scenario. We study three degrees of emotion dimensions -
emoticons, lexical, and contextual by leveraging affective lexicons and a
state-of-the-art deep learning architecture. Our insights will be helpful in
designing adaptive negotiation agents that interact through realistic
communication interfaces.

Many real dialogues are interactive, meaning an agent's utterances will influence their conversational partner, elicit information, or change their opinion.
We use this fact to rewrite and augment existing suboptimal data, and train via offline reinforcement learning (RL) an agent that outperforms both prompting and learning from unaltered human demonstrations.
Our results in a user study with real humans show that our approach greatly outperforms existing state-of-the-art dialogue agents.

We introduce a two-stage automatic data generation framework to create CAPE, a Chinese dataset named Cognitive Appraisal theory-based Emotional corpus.
This corpus facilitates the generation of dialogues with contextually appropriate emotional responses by accounting for diverse personal and situational factors.
Our study shows the potential for advancing emotional expression in conversational agents, paving the way for more nuanced and meaningful human-computer interactions.

SemEval-2024 Task 3, named Multimodal Emotion Cause Analysis in Conversations, aims at extracting all pairs of emotions and their corresponding causes from conversations.
Under different modality settings, it consists of two subtasks: Textual Emotion-Cause Pair Extraction in Conversations (TECPE) and Multimodal Emotion-Cause Pair Extraction in Conversations (MECPE)
In this paper, we introduce the task, dataset and evaluation settings, summarize the systems of the top teams, and discuss the findings of the participants.

Mixed-Motive Human-Agent Interactions [24.266490660606497]
We find that self-play RL fails to learn the value of compromise in a negotiation.
We modify the training procedure in two novel ways to design agents with diverse personalities and analyze their performance with human partners.
We find that although both techniques show promise, a selfish agent, which maximizes its own performance while also avoiding walkaways, performs superior to other variants by implicitly learning to generate value for both itself and the negotiation partner.

Lack of external knowledge makes empathetic dialogue systems difficult to perceive implicit emotions and learn emotional interactions from limited dialogue history.
We propose to leverage external knowledge, including commonsense knowledge and emotional lexical knowledge, to explicitly understand and express emotions in empathetic dialogue generation.
