End-to-End Task-Oriented Dialog Modeling With Semi-Structured Knowledge Management

Antoine Bosselut, Silin Gao

Current task-oriented dialog (TOD) systems mostly manage structured knowledge (e.g. databases and tables) to guide the goal-oriented conversations. However, they fall short of handling dialogs which also involve unstructured knowledge (e.g. reviews and doc ...

A methodology to design measurement systems when multiple model classes are plausible

Ian Smith, Numa Joy Bertola, Sai Ganesh Sarvotham Pai

The management of existing civil infrastructure is challenging due to evolving functional requirements, aging and climate change. Civil infrastructure often has hidden reserve capacity because of conservative approaches used in design and during constructi ...

Une approche computationnelle du cadastre napoléonien de Venise

Frédéric Kaplan, Isabella Di Lenardo, Raphaël Barman, Federica Pardini

At the beginning of the 19th century, the Napoleonic administration introduced a new standardised description system to give an objective account of the form and functions of the city of Venice. The cadastre, deployed on a European scale, was offering for ...

Adaptive Laser Welding Control: A Reinforcement Learning Approach

Giulio Masinelli, Silvio Zanoli

Despite extensive research efforts in the field of laser welding, the imperfect repeatability of the weld quality still represents an open topic. Indeed, the inherent complexity of the underlying physical phenomena prevents the implementation of an effecti ...

Secrecy by Design With Applications to Privacy and Compression

Yanina Yurina Shkel

Secrecy by design is examined as an approach to information-theoretic secrecy. The main idea behind this approach is to design an information processing system from the ground up to be perfectly secure with respect to an explicit secrecy constraint. The pr ...

Studying Summarization Evaluation Metrics in the Appropriate Scoring Range

Maxime Jean Julien Peyrard

In summarization, automatic evaluation metrics are usually compared based on their ability to correlate with human judgments. Unfortunately, the few existing human judgment datasets have been created as by-products of the manual evaluations performed durin ...

Consolidation of database check constraints

Nikola Obrenovic

Independent modeling of various modules of an information system (IS), and consequently database subschemas, may result in formal or semantic conflicts between the modules being modeled. Such conflicts may cause collisions between the integrated database s ...

A Simple Theoretical Model of Importance for Summarization

Maxime Jean Julien Peyrard

Research on summarization has mainly been driven by empirical approaches, crafting systems to perform well on standard datasets with the notion of information Importance remaining latent. We argue that establishing theoretical models of Importance will adv ...
