Although current Graph Neural Network (GNN) based models achieved good performances in Dialogue Intent Classification (DIC), they leaf the inherent domain-specific knowledge out of consideration, leading to the lack of ability of acquiring fine-grained semantic information. In this paper, we propose a Knowledge-Enhanced Multifactor Graph (KEMG) Model for DIC. We firstly present a knowledge-aware utterance encoder with the help of a domain-specific knowledge graph, fusing token-level and entity-level semantic information, then design a heterogeneous dialogue graph encoder by explicitly modeling several factors that matter to contextual modeling of dialogues. Experiment results show that our proposed method outperforms other GNN-based methods on a dataset collected from a real-world online customer service dialogue system on the e-commerce website, JD.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
