Argumentation system for intelligent assistants using fuzzy-based reasoning

Abstract

This paper addresses the issue of building intelligent assistant that is able to maintain sustainable conversation with the user while taking into account his emotional, personality aspects, and, at the same time, maintaining high level focus. The approach makes use four meta-features; namely, topic, emotion, personality and dialogue-act. A sequence-tosequence recurrent neural network approach was used to learn answer prototypes from Reddit.com sport corpus, while an ANFIS based approach was developed to extrapolate from the limited configurations used by the neural network to various dialogue utterances.
