DialoGPT
Overview
DialoGPT was proposed in DialoGPT: Large-Scale Generative Pre-training for Conversational Response Generation by Yizhe Zhang, Siqi Sun, Michel Galley, Yen-Chun Chen, Chris Brockett, Xiang Gao,
Jianfeng Gao, Jingjing Liu, Bill Dolan. It's a GPT2 Model trained on 147M conversation-like exchanges extracted from
Reddit.
The abstract from the paper is the following:
We present a large, tunable neural conversational response generation model, DialoGPT (dialogue generative pre-trained
transformer). Trained on 147M conversation-like exchanges extracted from Reddit comment chains over a period spanning
from 2005 through 2017, DialoGPT extends the Hugging Face PyTorch transformer to attain a performance close to human
both in terms of automatic and human evaluation in single-turn dialogue settings. We show that conversational systems
that leverage DialoGPT generate more relevant, contentful and context-consistent responses than strong baseline
systems. The pre-trained model and training pipeline are publicly released to facilitate research into neural response
generation and the development of more intelligent open-domain dialogue systems.
