A dataset intended for fully trainable natural language generation (NLG) systems in task-oriented spoken dialogue systems (SDS), covering the English public transport information domain. It includes preceding context (user utterance) along with each data instance (pair of source meaning representation and target natural language paraphrase to be generated).
Taking the form of the previous user utterance into account for generating the system response allows NLG systems trained on this dataset to entrain (adapt) to the preceding utterance, i.e., reuse wording and syntactic structure. This should presumably improve the perceived naturalness of the output, and may even lead to a higher task success rate.
Crowdsourcing has been used to obtain natural context user utterances as well as natural system responses to be generated.
This is a dataset for natural language generation (NLG) in task-oriented spoken dialogue systems with Czech as the target language. It originated as a translation of the English San Francisco Restaurants dataset by Wen et al. (2015).
It includes input dialogue acts and the corresponding output natural language paraphrases in Czech. Since the dataset is intended for recurrent neural network based NLG systems using delexicalization, inflection tables for all slot values appearing verbatim in the text are provided.
