Core Concepts
The author proposes an Iterative Associative Memory Model (IAMM) to enhance empathetic response generation by iteratively capturing associated words in dialogue utterances. This approach facilitates a more accurate understanding of emotional and cognitive states.
Abstract
The content introduces the Iterative Associative Memory Model (IAMM) for empathetic response generation, emphasizing the importance of capturing associated words across dialogue utterances. The model is evaluated through automatic and human evaluations, showcasing its effectiveness in accurately understanding emotions and expressing empathetic responses. Additionally, experiments on large language models further validate the benefits of iterative associations. The analysis of associated words reveals their characteristics in emotion intensity and frequency, highlighting the model's ability to focus on key information for generating informative responses.
