Goal-Oriented Dialogue Policy Learning from Failures

Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2019
Reinforcement learning methods have been used for learning dialogue policies. However, learning an effective dialogue policy frequently requires prohibitively many conversations. This is partly because of the sparse rewards in dialogues, and the very few successful dialogues in early learning phase.

Goal-Oriented Gaze Estimation for Zero-Shot Learning [PDF]

2021 IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR), 2021
Zero-shot learning (ZSL) aims to recognize novel classes by transferring semantic knowledge from seen classes to unseen classes. Since semantic knowledge is built on attributes shared between different classes, which are highly local, strong prior for localization of object attribute is beneficial for visual-semantic embedding.

Goal-Oriented Sensitivity Analysis of Hyperparameters in Deep Learning

Journal of Scientific Computing, 2023
Tackling new machine learning problems with neural networks always means optimizing numerous hyperparameters that define their structure and strongly impact their performances. In this work, we study the use of goal-oriented sensitivity analysis, based on the Hilbert-Schmidt Independence Criterion (HSIC), for hyperparameter analysis and optimization ...

Perceptions of classroom goal structures, personal achievement goal orientations, and learning strategies

The Japanese journal of psychology, 2005
We examined the relations among students' perceptions of classroom goal structures (mastery and performance goal structures), students' achievement goal orientations (mastery, performance, and work-avoidance goals), and learning strategies (deep processing, surface processing and self-handicapping strategies).

Examining hotel salespeople's new membership programme sales performance [PDF]

, 2014
Promoting new membership programmes can be a rewarding, yet challenging task for hotels. However, high-performance sales teams can improve consumer perceptions of new membership programmes in the market and allow hotels to remain competitive. Few studies

Action research and democracy [PDF]

, 2013
This contribution explores the relationship between research and learning democracy. Action research is seen as being compatible with the orientation of educational and social work research towards social justice and democracy.

Learning Bifunctional Push-Grasping Synergistic Strategy for Goal-Agnostic and Goal-Oriented Tasks

2023 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), 2023
Both goal-agnostic and goal-oriented tasks have practical value for robotic grasping: goal-agnostic tasks target all objects in the workspace, while goal-oriented tasks aim at grasping pre-assigned goal objects. However, most current grasping methods are only better at coping with one task.

The significance of motivation in student-centred learning : a reflective case study [PDF]

, 2008
The theoretical underpinnings of student-centred learning suggest motivation to be an integral component. However, lack of clarification of what is involved in motivation in education often results in unchallenged assumptions that fail to recognise that ...

Learning Goal-oriented Dialogue Policy with opposite Agent Awareness

Proceedings of the 1st Conference of the Asia-Pacific Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics and the 10th International Joint Conference on Natural Language Processing, 2020
Most existing approaches for goal-oriented dialogue policy learning used reinforcement learning, which focuses on the target agent policy and simply treat the opposite agent policy as part of the environment. While in real-world scenarios, the behavior of an opposite agent often exhibits certain patterns or underlies hidden policies, which can be ...
