Doc2Dial (Doc2Dial: Document-grounded Dialogue)

For goal-oriented document-grounded dialogs, it often involves complex contexts for identifying the most relevant information, which requires better understanding of the inter-relations between conversations and documents. Meanwhile, many online user-oriented documents use both semi-structured and unstructured contents for guiding users to access information of different contexts. Thus, we create a new goal-oriented document-grounded dialogue dataset that captures more diverse scenarios derived from various document contents from multiple domains such ssa.gov and studentaid.gov. For data collection, we propose a novel pipeline approach for dialogue data construction, which has been adapted and evaluated for several domains.
