Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pretrain discrete sentence representations to predict dialogue continuation and actions | Negotiation dialogue generation · Negotiation test | perplexity: 5.46 -> 5.24 | Helped |
| Pretrain discrete sentence representations to predict dialogue continuation and actions | Negotiation self-play · Self-play negotiations | score vs. RNN: 4.68 -> 6.75 | Helped |
| Add hierarchical sentence-level recurrence over messages | Negotiation dialogue generation · Negotiation test | perplexity: 5.47 -> 5.21 | Helped |
| Add rollout planning (ablation) | Full model · Self-play negotiations | score vs. no rollouts: 5.08 -> 7.81 | Helped |
| Use distinct latent intents for rollout candidates (ablation) | Full model with rollouts · Self-play negotiations | score vs. baseline rollouts: 6.57 -> 7.36 | Helped |
| Fine-tune only the intent predictor with reinforcement learning while keeping language parameters fixed (ablation) | Full model · Self-play negotiations | reward at human-like language quality | Helped |
| Apply reinforcement learning to all model parameters (ablation) | Full model · Self-play negotiations | language quality | Hurt |
| Add rollout planning (ablation) | Full model · Negotiations against humans | score vs. human: 5.42 -> 7.45 | Helped |
| Add rollout planning (ablation) | RNN · Negotiations against humans | score vs. human: 5.30 -> 6.99 | Helped |
| Fine-tune with reinforcement learning (ablation) | Full model · Negotiations against humans | score vs. human: 5.42 -> 6.26 | Helped |
| Fine-tune with reinforcement learning (ablation) | RNN · Negotiations against humans | score vs. human: 5.30 -> 6.01 | Helped |
| Use discrete latent representations rather than the direct hierarchical continuous connection (ablation) | Negotiation dialogue generation · Negotiation test | perplexity: 5.21 -> 5.24 | No clear effect |
