• Title: DARER: Dual-task Temporal Relational Recurrent Reasoning Network for Joint Dialog Sentiment Classification and Act Recognition
• Authors: Bowen Xing and Ivor W. Tsang
• Abstract summary: Task of joint dialog sentiment classification (DSC) and act recognition (DAR) aims to simultaneously predict the sentiment label and act label for each utterance in a dialog. We put forward a new framework which models the explicit dependencies via integrating textitprediction-level interactions. To implement our framework, we propose a novel model dubbed DARER, which first generates the context-, speaker- and temporal-sensitive utterance representations.

• Abstract: The task of joint dialog sentiment classification (DSC) and act recognition (DAR) aims to simultaneously predict the sentiment label and act label for each utterance in a dialog. In this paper, we put forward a new framework which models the explicit dependencies via integrating \textit{prediction-level interactions} other than semantics-level interactions, more consistent with human intuition. Besides, we propose a speaker-aware temporal graph (SATG) and a dual-task relational temporal graph (DRTG) to introduce \textit{temporal relations} into dialog understanding and dual-task reasoning. To implement our framework, we propose a novel model dubbed DARER, which first generates the context-, speaker- and temporal-sensitive utterance representations via modeling SATG, then conducts recurrent dual-task relational reasoning on DRTG, in which process the estimated label distributions act as key clues in prediction-level interactions. Experiment results show that DARER outperforms existing models by large margins while requiring much less computation resource and costing less training time. Remarkably, on DSC task in Mastodon, DARER gains a relative improvement of about 25% over previous best model in terms of F1, with less than 50% parameters and about only 60% required GPU memory.

  We propose a novel Dialogue and Event Relation-Aware Graph Convolutional Neural Network for Multimodal Emotion Recognition (DER-GCN) method.

  The joint task of Dialog Sentiment Classification (DSC) and Act Recognition (DAR) aims to predict the sentiment label and act label for each utterance in a dialog simultaneously. We propose a Bi-directional Multi-hop Inference Model (BMIM) that iteratively extract and integrate rich sentiment and act clues in a bi-directional manner. BMIM outperforms state-of-the-art baselines by at least 2.6% on F1 score in DAR and 1.4% on F1 score in DSC.

Our results show that while sequential multi-task learning can be tuned to be good at the first of two target tasks, it performs less well on the second and additionally struggles with overfitting.

  We propose Dialogue Meaning Representation (DMR), a flexible and easily extendable representation for task-oriented dialogue. Our representation contains a set of nodes and edges with inheritance hierarchy to represent rich semantics for compositional semantics and task-specific concepts. We propose two evaluation tasks to evaluate different machine learning based dialogue models, and further propose a novel coreference resolution model GNNCoref for the graph-based coreference resolution task.
