One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for analyzing a transcript of a structured interaction. The technique includes determining a first portion of the transcript that corresponds to a first dialogue act. The technique also includes matching the first portion of the transcript to a first component of a script for the structured interaction based on a first set of embeddings for the first portion of the transcript and a second set of embeddings associated with the first component of the script. The technique further includes causing a first mapping between the first portion of the transcript and the first component to be outputted.
