To use this dataset, you need to install ConvLab-3 platform first. Then you can load the dataset via:
from convlab.util import load_dataset, load_ontology, load_database
dataset = load_dataset('metalwoz')
ontology = load_ontology('metalwoz')
database = load_database('metalwoz')

Dataset Summary
This large dataset was created by crowdsourcing 37,884 goal-oriented dialogs, covering 227 tasks in 47 domains. Domains include bus schedules, apartment search, alarm setting, banking, and event reservation. Each dialog was grounded in a scenario with roles, pairing a person acting as the bot and a person acting as the user. (This is the Wizard of Oz reference—using people behind the curtain who act as the machine). Each pair were given a domain and a task, and instructed to converse for 10 turns to satisfy the user’s queries. For example, if a user asked if a bus stop was operational, the bot would respond that the bus stop had been moved two blocks north, which starts a conversation that addresses the user’s actual need.
- How to get the transformed data from original data:
- Download metalwoz-v1.zip and metalwoz-test-v1.zip.
- Run
python preprocess.pyin the current directory.
- Main changes of the transformation:
CITI_INFO,HOME_BOT,NAME_SUGGESTER, andTIME_ZONEare randomly selected as the valiation domains.- Remove the first utterance by the system since it is "Hello how may I help you?" in most case.
- Add goal description according to the original task description: user_role+user_prompt+system_role+system_prompt.
- Annotations:
- domain, goal
