A Knowledge-Grounded Multimodal Search-Based Conversational Agent
Multimodal search-based dialogue is a challenging new task: It extends
visually grounded question answering systems into multi-turn conversations with
access to an external database. We address this new challenge by learning a
neural response generation system from the recently released Multimodal
Dialogue (MMD) dataset (Saha et al., 2017). We introduce a knowledge-grounded
multimodal conversational model where an encoded knowledge base (KB)
representation is appended to the decoder input. Our model substantially
outperforms strong baselines in terms of text-based similarity measures (over 9
BLEU points, 3 of which are solely due to the use of additional information
from the KB
A Relation-Based Page Rank Algorithm for Semantic Web Search Engines
With the tremendous growth of information available to end users through the Web, search engines come to play ever a more critical role. Nevertheless, because of their general-purpose approach, it is always less uncommon that obtained result sets provide a burden of useless pages. The next-generation Web architecture, represented by the Semantic Web, provides the layered architecture possibly allowing overcoming this limitation. Several search engines have been proposed, which allow increasing information retrieval accuracy by exploiting a key content of Semantic Web resources, that is, relations. However, in order to rank results, most of the existing solutions need to work on the whole annotated knowledge base. In this paper, we propose a relation-based page rank algorithm to be used in conjunction with Semantic Web search engines that simply relies on information that could be extracted from user queries and on annotated resources. Relevance is measured as the probability that a retrieved resource actually contains those relations whose existence was assumed by the user at the time of query definitio
