This paper proposes a novel task on commonsense-enhanced task-based dialogue
grounded in documents and describes the Task2Dial dataset, a novel dataset of
document-grounded task-based dialogues, where an Information Giver (IG)
provides instructions (by consulting a document) to an Information Follower
(IF), so that the latter can successfully complete the task. In this unique
setting, the IF can ask clarification questions which may not be grounded in
the underlying document and require commonsense knowledge to be answered. The
Task2Dial dataset poses new challenges: (1) its human reference texts show more
lexical richness and variation than other document-grounded dialogue datasets;
(2) generating from this set requires paraphrasing as instructional responses
might have been modified from the underlying document; (3) requires commonsense
knowledge, since questions might not necessarily be grounded in the document;
(4) generating requires planning based on context, as task steps need to be
provided in order. The Task2Dial dataset contains dialogues with an average
$18.15$ number of turns and 19.79 tokens per turn, as compared to 12.94 and 12
respectively in existing datasets. As such, learning from this dataset promises
more natural, varied and less template-like system utterances.

本文提出了一种基于常识增强的基于任务的对话任务，并描述了 Task2Dial 数据集，这是一个基于文档的任务对话的新数据集，在此设置中，IF 可以提出澄清问题，这些问题可能不基于基础文档，需要常识知识来回答。
