A Summarized History-based Dialogue System for Amnesia-Free Prompt Updates

In today's society, information overload presents challenges in providing optimal recommendations. Consequently, the importance of dialogue systems that can discern and provide the necessary information through dialogue is increasingly recognized. However, some concerns existing dialogue systems rely on pre-trained models and need help to cope with real-time or insufficient information. To address these concerns, models that allow the addition of missing information to dialogue robots are being proposed. Yet, maintaining the integrity of previous conversation history while integrating new data remains a formidable challenge. This paper presents a novel system for dialogue robots designed to remember user-specific characteristics by retaining past conversation history even as new information is added.

A Dialogue Robot System to Improve Credibility in Sightseeing Spot Recommendations

Various studies have been conducted on human-supporting robot systems. These systems have been put to practical use over the years and are now seen in our daily lives. In particular, robots communicating smoothly with people are expected to play an active role in customer service and guidance. In this case, it is essential to determine whether the customer is satisfied with the dialog robot or not. However, it is not easy to satisfy all of the customer's requests due to the diversity of the customer's speech. In this study, we developed a dialog mechanism that prevents dialog breakdowns and keeps the customer satisfied by providing multiple scenarios for the robot to take control of the dialog. We tested it in a travel destination recommendation task at a travel agency.
