[Slides from the lecture] (sorry, didn't manage to get the recording to work)
During the exercise session, I will present the optional project, which is about building an IR-based chatbot trained on a corpus of movies and TV subtitles. I will also present how to build a neural network for NLP tasks using Keras.
On Thursday, we talked about
- dialogue management
- system design and evaluation
- ethical issues.
Other course materials:
- "Dialogue" chapter from the 2nd edition of Jurafsky & Martin's SLP book (see in particular the chapter on the Markov Decision Process Architecture).
- "Probabilistic models of dialogue" chapter from my own PhD thesis.
