Abstract: | Multi-turn dialogue is the major manifestation of a conversation. Compared with single-turn dialogue, response selection is more complex as the context varies. We stress the importance of dialogue history and apply the pre-trained model BERT to assign proper weight to each utterance of a dialogue. Previous works take all the dialogue history as context to measure the matching degree of a context-response pair, causing the quadratic computational cost and truncation of longer sequences exceeding the length limitation of BERT. We propose a sentence-based method to deal with the aforementioned problems, obtaining the sentence embedding of a single unit utterance of dialogue and forming a classification token of a context-response pair. We discuss how to obtain a sentence embedding with high quality and to design the input representations in response selection. The results show that the average of the first-last layer output exhibits the best performance for obtaining a sentence representation. The proposed method, concatenating the sentence embeddings of context with the token embeddings of response candidates, is nearly on a par with the token embedding based SOTA method. Notably, the processable length of dialogue history is enlarged about ten times with a low computational cost, potentially reducing chatbot response time and inspiring user engagement. |
