• Abstract: The knowledge-grounded dialogue task aims to generate responses that convey information from given knowledge documents. However, it is a challenge for the current sequence-based model to acquire knowledge from complex documents and integrate it to perform correct responses without the aid of an explicit semantic structure. To address these issues, we propose a novel graph structure, Grounded Graph ($G^2$), that models the semantic structure of both dialogue and knowledge to facilitate knowledge selection and integration for knowledge-grounded dialogue generation. We also propose a Grounded Graph Aware Transformer ($G^2AT$) model that fuses multi-forms knowledge (both sequential and graphic) to enhance knowledge-grounded response generation. Our experiments results show that our proposed model outperforms the previous state-of-the-art methods with more than 10\% gains in response generation and nearly 20\% improvement in factual consistency. Further, our model reveals good generalization ability and robustness. By incorporating semantic structures as prior knowledge in deep neural networks, our model provides an effective way to aid language generation.

  We propose a novel Graph-based Structure-Aware Prompt Learning Model for commonsense reasoning, named G-SAP. In particular, an evidence graph is constructed by integrating multiple knowledge sources, i.e. ConceptNet, Wikipedia, and Cambridge Dictionary. The results reveal a significant advancement over the existing models, especially, with 6.12% improvement over the SoTA LM+GNNs model on the OpenbookQA dataset.

  End-to-end task-oriented dialogue systems aim to generate system responses directly from plain text inputs. One is how to effectively incorporate external knowledge bases (KBs) into the learning framework; the other is how to accurately capture the semantics of dialogue history. We address these two challenges by exploiting the graph structural information in the knowledge base and in the dependency parsing tree of the dialogue.
