Longitudinal Invariance Analysis of the Short Grit Scale in Chinese Young Adults
Frontiers in Psychology, 2020 The current study examined the longitudinal measurement invariance (LMI) of the Short Grit Scale (Grit-S) in a survey sample of Chinese young adults (N = 233, 48.9% male, mean age = 19.36 years, SD = 0.90 years) who completed the Grit-S twice over a 3 ...

Rethinking Action Spaces for Reinforcement Learning in End-to-end Dialog Agents with Latent Variable Models [PDF]
North American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics, 2019 Defining action spaces for conversational agents and optimizing their decision-making process with reinforcement learning is an enduring challenge. Common practice has been to use handcrafted dialog acts, or the output vocabulary, e.g.

Stated consideration and attribute thresholds in mode choice models: a hierarchical ICLV approach
European Journal of Transport and Infrastructure Research, 2021 Consideration of alternatives, as many other aspects related to the decision-making process, is not observable and challenging to measure. Even when supplementary information is collected during stated choice experiments, its use as an additional ...

PLATO: Pre-trained Dialogue Generation Model with Discrete Latent Variable [PDF]
Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics, 2019 Pre-training models have been proved effective for a wide range of natural language processing tasks. Inspired by this, we propose a novel dialogue generation pre-training framework to support various kinds of conversations, including chit-chat ...
