Zusammenfassung:Techniques for implementing a chatbot that utilizes context embeddings are described. An exemplary method includes determining a next turn by: applying a language model to the utterance to determine a probability of a sequence of words, generating a context embedding for the utterance based at least on one or more of: a dialog act as defined by a chatbot definition of the chatbot, a topic vector identifying a domain of the chatbot, a previous chatbot response, and one or more slot options; performing neural language model rescoring using the determined probability of a sequence of words as a word embedding and the generated context embedding to predict an hypothesis; determining at least a name of a slot and type to be fulfilled based at least in part on the hypothesis and the chatbot definition; and determining a next turn based at least in part on the chatbot definition, any previous state, and the name of the slot and type to be fulfilled.
