### Dataset Summary |
|
|
|
DailyDialog is a high-quality multi-turn dialog dataset. It is intriguing in several aspects. The language is human-written and less noisy. The dialogues in the dataset reflect our daily communication way and cover various topics about our daily life. We also manually label the developed dataset with communication intention and emotion information. |
|
|
|
- **How to get the transformed data from original data:** |
|
- Download [ijcnlp_dailydialog.zip](http://yanran.li/files/ijcnlp_dailydialog.zip). |
|
- Run `python preprocess.py` in the current directory. |
|
- **Main changes of the transformation:** |
|
- Use `topic` annotation as `domain`. If duplicated dialogs are annotated with different topics, use the most frequent one. |
|
- Use `intent` annotation as `binary` dialogue act. |
|
- Retain emotion annotation in the `emotion` field of each turn. |
|
- Use nltk to remove space before punctuation: `utt = ' '.join([detokenizer.detokenize(word_tokenize(s)) for s in sent_tokenize(utt)])`. |
|
- Replace `" ’ "` with `"'"`: `utt = utt.replace(' ’ ', "'")`. |
|
- Add space after full-stop |
|
- **Annotations:** |
|
- intent, emotion |
