Dataset SLAM

Due to the confidentiality of dataset, we don't release the data publically. Please contact Maxime Amblard (firstname dot name at loria dot fr) should you have further request.

Code structure

• You will need first extract features from the src/feats/ folder. Depending on the window size, choose from {compute_feats_block.py, compute_feats_full.py, compute_feats_indiv.py}. Every successfully extracted feature will have two files: train-st.svmlight and vocab-featureName-st.
• With svmlight and vocab files, opt for classif.py script for classification task. Read carefully the instructions for arguments.

UFO scheme

ufo is short for Unified Feature Object. It is a CONLLU-based format with extention to more discourse/dialogical information. In this paper we use this format to pre-process our dataset. For more information about the format, please contact Pierre Lefebvre or Chuyuan Li (firstname dot name at loria dot fr).
