1. **[Key-Value Retrieval Networks for Task-Oriented Dialogue](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/eric-2017-key-value-retrieval-networks-task/)** *(2017 · 568 citations)* The paper addresses a problem of task-oriented dialogue agents. Such agents find it hard to make natural use of information from a knowledge base (KB) while remaining fully differentiable. Researchers from Stanford and Ford Research propose the Key-Value Retrieval Network. It is an LSTM-based seq2seq model with…
2. **[The Pragmatics of Indirect Commands in Collaborative Discourse](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/lamm-2017-pragmatics-indirect-commands-collaborative-discourse/)** *(2017 · 1 citation)* In the Cards corpus (1,266 transcripts of a two-player game: collect six consecutive cards of one suit, hold at most three each) the authors study commands that name neither an action nor an agent: locative statements such as «there is a 5h in the very top left corner», after which the partner goes and picks the card…
