| Content Summary | The use of Reinforcement Learning (RL) approaches for dialogue policy optimization has been the new trend for dialogue management systems. Several methods have been proposed, which are trained on dialogue data to provide optimal system response. However, most of these approaches exhibit performance degradation in the presence of noise, poor scalability to other domains, as well as performance instabilities. To overcome these problems, we propose a novel approach based on the incremental, sample-efficient Least-Squares Policy Iteration (LSPI) algorithm, which is trained on compact, fixed-size dialogue state encodings, obtained from deep Variational Denoising Autoencoders (VDAE). The proposed scheme exhibits stable and noise-robust performance, which significantly outperforms the current state-of-the-art, even in mismatched noise environments. | en |
