Abstract
- Human beings tend to learn unknown knowledge in a gradual process, from the basic to the complex. Based on this point, we propose a progressive learning method for producing service strategies according to requests, with a hierarchical priori knowledge and reinforcement learning. Service strategy aims to guide how to perform home services and takes into consideration the relationship between actions and objects in home environment. In this paper, strategy generation is regarded as a text generation problem in question answering (QA). Firstly, a hierarchical priori knowledge with service-object correlation at the bottom and action-object correlation at the top is constructed to assist the understanding on the relationship of objects and actions in service strategies. Service-object correlation guides how to select proper objects with the correct order, while action-object correlation associates actions in strategies according to selected objects. Based on the hierarchical priori knowledge, a progressive learning method is proposed to make the model produce effective strategies with a sequential cognition, from service-object correlation (objects) to action-object correlation (actions). After that, reinforcement learning is employed to enhance the progressive guidance, by designing rewards in terms of the hierarchical priori knowledge. Finally, the proposed method is tested with both comparative experiments and ablation studies, and the experimental results demonstrate the superiority in producing comprehensive and logical strategies, indicating that the progressive learning method in our paper can further improve the QA performance.
