Abstract
Described herein are systems and methods for two-stage training of a spoken dialog system. The first stage trains a policy network using external data to produce a semi-trained policy network. The external data includes one or more known fixed dialogs. The second stage trains the semi-trained policy network through interaction to produce a trained policy network. The interaction may be interaction with a user simulator.
