June 2022 • Thanh Tran, Kai Wei, Weitong Ruan, Ross McGowan, Nathan Susanj, Grant P. Strimel
Recent years have seen significant advances in multi-turn Spoken Language Understanding (SLU), where dialogue contexts are used to guide intent classification and slot filling. However, how to selectively incorporate dialogue contexts, such as previous utterances and dialogue acts, into multi-turn SLU still remains a substantial challenge. In this work, we propose a novel contextual SLU model for multi-turn intent classification and slot filling tasks. We introduce an adaptive global-local context fusion mechanism…
