Abstract:
Methods and systems for attention behavioral analysis for a conversational question and answer system are disclosed. A multi-modality input is selected from a plurality of multimodality conversations among two or more users. The system annotates the first modality inputs and at least one attention region in the first modality input corresponding to a set of entities and semantic relationships in a unified modality is identified by a discrete aspect of information bounded by the attention elements. The system models the representations of the multimodality inputs at different levels of granularity, which includes entity level, turn level, conversational level. The method proposed uses a network that consists of multilevel encoder-decoder architecture that is used to determine unified focalized attention, analyze and construct one or more responses for one or more turns in a conversation.
