Personalized Dialogue Generation with Diversified Traits
Endowing a dialogue system with particular personality traits is essential to
deliver more human-like conversations. However, due to the challenge of
embodying personality via language expression and the lack of large-scale
persona-labeled dialogue data, this research problem is still far from
well-studied. In this paper, we investigate the problem of incorporating
explicit personality traits in dialogue generation to deliver personalized
dialogues.
To this end, firstly, we construct PersonalDialog, a large-scale multi-turn
dialogue dataset containing various traits from a large number of speakers. The
dataset consists of 20.83M sessions and 56.25M utterances from 8.47M speakers.
Each utterance is associated with a speaker who is marked with traits like Age,
Gender, Location, Interest Tags, etc. Several anonymization schemes are
designed to protect the privacy of each speaker. This large-scale dataset will
facilitate not only the study of personalized dialogue generation, but also
other researches on sociolinguistics or social science.
Secondly, to study how personality traits can be captured and addressed in
dialogue generation, we propose persona-aware dialogue generation models within
the sequence to sequence learning framework. Explicit personality traits
(structured by key-value pairs) are embedded using a trait fusion module.
During the decoding process, two techniques, namely persona-aware attention and
persona-aware bias, are devised to capture and address trait-related
information. Experiments demonstrate that our model is able to address proper
traits in different contexts. Case studies also show interesting results for
this challenging research problem.Comment: Please contact [zhengyinhe1 at 163 dot com] for the PersonalDialog

Context-Aware Embeddings for Automatic Art Analysis
Automatic art analysis aims to classify and retrieve artistic representations
from a collection of images by using computer vision and machine learning
techniques. In this work, we propose to enhance visual representations from
neural networks with contextual artistic information. Whereas visual
representations are able to capture information about the content and the style
of an artwork, our proposed context-aware embeddings additionally encode
relationships between different artistic attributes, such as author, school, or
historical period. We design two different approaches for using context in
automatic art analysis. In the first one, contextual data is obtained through a
multi-task learning model, in which several attributes are trained together to
find visual relationships between elements. In the second approach, context is
obtained through an art-specific knowledge graph, which encodes relationships
between artistic attributes. An exhaustive evaluation of both of our models in
several art analysis problems, such as author identification, type
classification, or cross-modal retrieval, show that performance is improved by
up to 7.3% in art classification and 37.24% in retrieval when context-aware
embeddings are used
Context-Aware Zero-Shot Recognition
We present a novel problem setting in zero-shot learning, zero-shot object
recognition and detection in the context. Contrary to the traditional zero-shot
learning methods, which simply infers unseen categories by transferring
knowledge from the objects belonging to semantically similar seen categories,
we aim to understand the identity of the novel objects in an image surrounded
by the known objects using the inter-object relation prior. Specifically, we
leverage the visual context and the geometric relationships between all pairs
of objects in a single image, and capture the information useful to infer
unseen categories. We integrate our context-aware zero-shot learning framework
into the traditional zero-shot learning techniques seamlessly using a
Conditional Random Field (CRF). The proposed algorithm is evaluated on both
zero-shot region classification and zero-shot detection tasks. The results on
Visual Genome (VG) dataset show that our model significantly boosts performance
with the additional visual context compared to traditional methods
Automatic Detection of Vague Words and Sentences in Privacy Policies
Website privacy policies represent the single most important source of
information for users to gauge how their personal data are collected, used and
shared by companies. However, privacy policies are often vague and people
struggle to understand the content. Their opaqueness poses a significant
challenge to both users and policy regulators. In this paper, we seek to
identify vague content in privacy policies. We construct the first corpus of
human-annotated vague words and sentences and present empirical studies on
automatic vagueness detection. In particular, we investigate context-aware and
context-agnostic models for predicting vague words, and explore
auxiliary-classifier generative adversarial networks for characterizing
sentence vagueness. Our experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of
proposed approaches. Finally, we provide suggestions for resolving vagueness
and improving the usability of privacy policies.Comment: 10 page
ConXsense - Automated Context Classification for Context-Aware Access Control
We present ConXsense, the first framework for context-aware access control on
mobile devices based on context classification. Previous context-aware access
control systems often require users to laboriously specify detailed policies or
they rely on pre-defined policies not adequately reflecting the true
preferences of users. We present the design and implementation of a
context-aware framework that uses a probabilistic approach to overcome these
deficiencies. The framework utilizes context sensing and machine learning to
automatically classify contexts according to their security and privacy-related
properties. We apply the framework to two important smartphone-related use
cases: protection against device misuse using a dynamic device lock and
protection against sensory malware. We ground our analysis on a sociological
survey examining the perceptions and concerns of users related to contextual
smartphone security and analyze the effectiveness of our approach with
real-world context data. We also demonstrate the integration of our framework
with the FlaskDroid architecture for fine-grained access control enforcement on
the Android platform.Comment: Recipient of the Best Paper Awar
