摘要:

市场上商业上可用的会话代理(CA)的数量不断增加,导致用户负担学习和采用多个代理来完成他们的任务。虽然先前的工作已经探索了在单个代理的设计中支持多个域,但由于所需功能的大动作空间,交互体验受到影响。为了解决这些问题,我们引入了一个新的任务BBAI:黑盒代理集成,专注于结合多个黑盒CA的能力在规模上。我们探讨了两种技术:问题代理配对和问题响应配对,旨在解决这个任务。利用这些技术,我们设计了一个为所有(OFA),一个可扩展的系统,提供了一个统一的接口,与多个CA进行交互。此外,我们引入MARS:多代理响应选择,一个新的编码器模型的问题响应配对,共同编码用户的问题和代理响应对。我们证明,OFA是能够自动和准确地集成一个合奏的商用CA跨越不同的域。具体来说,使用MARS编码器,我们在BBAI任务中实现了最高的准确性,优于强大的基线。

英文摘要:

The increasing volume of commercially available conversational agents (CAs) on the market has resulted in users being burdened with learning and adopting multiple agents to accomplish their tasks. Though prior work has explored supporting a multitude of domains within the design of a single agent, the interaction experience suffers due to the large action space of desired capabilities. To address these problems, we introduce a new task BBAI: Black-Box Agent Integration, focusing on combining the capabilities of multiple black-box CAs at scale. We explore two techniques: question agent pairing and question response pairing aimed at resolving this task. Leveraging these techniques, we design One For All (OFA), a scalable system that provides a unified interface to interact with multiple CAs. Additionally, we introduce MARS: Multi-Agent Response Selection, a new encoder model for question response pairing that jointly encodes user question and agent response pairs. We demonstrate that OFA is able to automatically and accurately integrate an ensemble of commercially available CAs spanning disparate domains. Specifically, using the MARS encoder we achieve the highest accuracy on our BBAI task, outperforming strong baselines.
