Title
A methodology for turn-taking capabilities enhancement in Spoken Dialogue Systems using Reinforcement Learning.
Abstract
•We propose a new methodology to improve turn-taking capabilities in a Spoken Dialogue System using Reinforcement Learning.•We describe a new incremental Dialogue System Architecture and a new incremental dialogue simulator.•We train a Reinforcement Learning policy with the simulator.•We show that it outperforms the handcrafted and the non-incremental baseline strategies.•We validate these results in a live study with real users.
