Model-Agnostic Meta-Learning (MAML) for Dialogue State Tracking

This repo implements the model-agnostic meta-learning (MAML) for dialogue state tracking (DST). It achieves better performance than TRADE in the few-shot setting. It also implements the multi-task learning (MTL-DST) as the baseline. This code has been written using PyTorch >= 1.0.

This project has a similar idea to MERET. Our project is preliminarily named recallable meta-learning for DST (RM-DST), which can not only fast adapt to a low-resource new domain, but also employ a recallable mechanism to maintain the high performance in old tasks. If you are interested in the work, you can contact me for the draft. The overview of RM-DST is as follows:

Download the MultiWOZ dataset and the processed dst version.

❱❱❱ python3 create_data.py

Dependency

Check the packages needed or simply run the command

❱❱❱ pip install -r requirements.txt

If you run into an error related to Cython, try to upgrade it first.

❱❱❱ pip install --upgrade cython

Unseen Domain DST

Training

❱❱❱ python3 myTrain_maml_DND.py -dec=TRADE -bsz=32 -dr=0.2 -lr=0.001 -le=1 -exceptd=${domain}

MTL-DST

Training

❱❱❱ python3 myTrain_MTL.py -dec=TRADE -bsz=32 -dr=0.2 -lr=0.001 -le=1 -exceptd=${domain} -add_name=MTL
