APP:Adaptive Prototypical Pseudo-Labeling for Few-shot OOD Detection

Detecting out-of-domain (OOD) intents from user queries is essential for a task-oriented dialogue system. Previous OOD detection studies generally work on the assumption that plenty of labeled IND intents exist. In this paper, we focus on a more …

Disentangling Confidence Score Distribution for Out-of-Domain Intent Detection with Energy-Based Learning

Detecting Out-of-Domain (OOD) or unknown intents from user queries is essential in a task-oriented dialog system. Traditional softmax-based confidence scores are susceptible to the overconfidence issue. In this paper, we propose a simple but strong …

UniNL: Aligning Representation Learning with Scoring Function for OOD Detection via Unified Neighborhood Learning

Detecting out-of-domain (OOD) intents from user queries is essential for avoiding wrong operations in task-oriented dialogue systems. The key challenge is how to distinguish in-domain (IND) and OOD intents. Previous methods ignore the alignment …

Distribution Calibration for Out-of-Domain Detection with Bayesian Approximation

Out-of-Domain (OOD) detection is a key component in a task-oriented dialog system, which aims to identify whether a query falls outside the predefined supported intent set. Previous softmax-based detection algorithms are proved to be overconfident …

Revisit Overconfidence for OOD Detection: Reassigned Contrastive Learning with Adaptive Class-dependent Threshold

Detecting Out-of-Domain (OOD) or unknown intents from user queries is essential in a task-oriented dialog system. A key challenge of OOD detection is the overconfidence of neural models. In this paper, we comprehensively analyze overconfidence and …

Modeling Discriminative Representations for Out-of-Domain Detection with Supervised Contrastive Learning

Detecting Out-of-Domain (OOD) or unknown intents from user queries is essential in a task oriented dialog system. A key challenge of OOD detection is to learn discriminative se mantic features. Traditional cross-entropy loss only focuses on whether a …

Novel Slot Detection:A Benchmark for Discovering Unknown Slot Types in the Task-Oriented Dialogue System

Existing slot filling models can only recognize pre-defined in-domain slot types from a limited slot set. In the practical application, a reliable dialogue system should know what it does not know. In this paper, we introduce a new task, Novel Slot …

Adversarial Generative Distance-Based Classifier for Robust Out-of-Domain Detection

Detecting out-of-domain (OOD) intents is critical in a task-oriented dialog system. Existing methods rely heavily on extensive manually labeled OOD samples and lack robustness. In this paper, we propose an efficient adversarial attack mechanism to …

Adversarial Self-Supervised Learning for Out-of-Domain Detection

Detecting out-of-domain (OOD) intents is crucial for the deployed task-oriented dialogue system. Previous unsupervised OOD detection methods only extract discriminative features of different in-domain intents while supervised counterparts can …

A Deep Generative Distance-Based Classifier for Out-of-Domain Detection with Mahalanobis Space

Detecting out-of-domain (OOD) input intents is critical in the task-oriented dialog system. Different from most existing methods that rely heavily on manually labeled OOD samples, we focus on the unsupervised OOD detection scenario where there are no …
