Interactive recommender systems enable the user to steer the received recommendations in the desired direction through explicit interaction with the system. In the larger ecosystem of recommender systems used on a website, it is positioned between a lean-back recommendation experience and an active search for a specific piece of content. Besides this aspect, we will discuss several parts that are especially important for interactive recommender systems, including the following: design of the user interface and its tight integration with the algorithm in the back-end; computational efficiency of the recommender algorithm; as well as choosing the right balance between exploiting the feedback from the user as to provide relevant recommendations, and enabling the user to explore the catalog and steer the recommendations in the desired direction.
In particular, we will explore the field of interactive video and music recommendations and their application at Netflix and Spotify. We outline some of the user-experiences built, and discuss the approaches followed to tackle the various aspects of interactive recommendations. We present our insights from user studies and A/B tests.
The tutorial targets researchers and practitioners in the field of recommender systems, and will give the participants a unique opportunity to learn about the various aspects of interactive recommender systems in the video and music domain. The tutorial assumes familiarity with the common methods of recommender systems.

Using Rasa to Power an Immersive Multimedia Conversational Experience | Rasa ...Rasa Technologies
Human-to-human electronic communication has moved from text (email) to voice (VoIP) to augmented video (Zoom/Skype). Similarly, the medium for human-to-machine conversation has moved from text (chatbots) to voice, with voice-enabled chatbots in wide use today. The next step in this evolution is a video-enabled conversational experience. Each medium change brings its own technical challenges. Creating a good voice experience involves more than just hooking up a chatbot to a text-to-speech and speech-to-text service. Vocinity has developed a platform for voice-enabled chatbots that has been in production for almost 2 years. We're updating our platform to support a multimedia experience where the bot communicates via video, voice and text messages and images. Using Rasa to provide the conversational logic for the immersive multimedia bot enables us to meet the challenges in voice/video communication. Rasa’s power and flexibility enabled us to extend it to support voice and video.
Presented by CTO of Vocinity, Nathan Stratton at the 2021 Rasa Summit https://rasa.com/summit/
QA has always been under-rated and thus it is important to consider this equally important as the Dev. If we look at the Chatbot QA, it had been considered as a highly challenging work specially when you do not know where your bot may break while you sequentially will be only running your flow (stories). Most of the companies / tools only check the flow which are coded in a fixed format which often breaks while testing. There may be cases where bot are migrated to new version and it breaks. The presentation will discuss the possibilities to test the bots by helping folks to create their coverage matrix for your stories, efficiently looking at the logs and mine information and most importantly what to test and which components to test.

End-to-end dialogue systems, or a feature which wasn’t meant to happen | Rasa...Rasa Technologies
You know the feeling when you ask for something and you’re pretty sure “no” will be the answer, but you still do it, because why not try? Well… the story of end-to-end is exactly this! Before starting on it, we read several papers about the technology not being ready for end-to-end dialogues in production. So, when we started working on it as a research project, “negative results are also interesting results” was our mantra. Suddenly, the results started to look more and more promising. Then, we developed the end-to-end training further – so that one can combine the classic Rasa format with intents and actions with the new end-to-end and gradually get rid of intents they don’t need.
In short, I will tell you a story of how end-to-end grew from a little internship project into an experimental feature of Rasa (and spanned far beyond the internship).

Voice First: Ready Your Content to Serve 50% of Global Searches | Rasa Summit...Rasa Technologies
Future of Digital Experience would be driven by the intersection of Content & Context, where Context would take the lead. Search is changing, and so is the way consumers choose to engage with businesses locally or globally. There is a distinct move away from screens and keyboards, and into voice-based interactions. Voice search is becoming a fast-growing habit across consumer segments and fundamentally transforming how people and businesses transact on the internet. Consider this:
- In 2020, there will be 4.2 billion digital voice assistants being used in devices around the world. Forecasts suggest that by 2024, the number of digital voice assistants will reach 8.4 billion units – a number higher than the world’s population.
- Sales revenue from wearable devices is projected to grow from around 16 billion U.S. Dollars in 2016 to around 73 billion U.S. dollars by 2022.
- McDonalds is adding 1000 kiosks per quarter for self-ordering and checkout since 2018 and acquired Appente to boost voice tech on these devices.
In the talk which includes hands-on demo, we will talk about how the current CMS ecosystem is structured and how the new-age headless CMS is changing how we create content. We will also look at the Schema.org usefulness.
Here are some key takeaways:
- Why a voice content strategy is critical for enterprises
- How and Why to make your content future proof
- The differences between voice-based and web-based content, and how that affects the user experience
- The basics of optimizing your content for voice search
- Why bots should be your next strategic investment
Demos:
- A quick view of the schemas important for the VSO
- Example of sites ranking in the Voice

The missing link: How AI can help create a safer society and better businesse...Rasa Technologies
According to Home Office data, the proportion of crimes solved by police in England and Wales has fallen to the lowest level recorded. Crime investigations are inherently expensive and each case takes a lot of man-hours and resource-poor cities are less able to reduce investigators' caseloads. With the growing amount of information held in siloed systems and people’s minds, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to grasp all the links and see the relations. Data is overwhelming. What if by using latest technology such as AI and NLP we could reduce time in solving crimes and the response times at the scene? What if more lives can be solved because AI can help automatically make a link between information faster than any human could do? What if that same technology could help us become more efficient and satisfied employees while decreasing costs for the companies? In this talk I would share the specific formula governments companies can adopt to successfully employ AI while keeping humans in the loop making them more efficient, productive and happy.

Boss - Bringing More Diversity to Tech | Rasa SummitRasa Technologies
Presented by Bruna Nayara Moreira Lima, Chatbot Developer at PicPay at the 2021 Rasa Summit https://rasa.com/summit/
Not all beginner coders know what is a FOSS software nor understand how most FOSS communities work or interact. Onboarding newcomers is challenging to most communities. Underrepresented groups and non english speakers face additional difficulties to contribute to FOSS, such as language barrier and confidence gap. To overcome these barriers, BOSS (Big Open Source Sister) was created. The program has three major objectives: introduce newcomers to FOSS, to capacitate the under-represented in the coding community into technologies demanded by the software industry, and improve participants’ belief in their own competence. To do that, BOSS based their mentorship in chatbot development, using a Rasa boilerplate project, created by LAPPIS. This program won the Gnome Engagement Challenge second phase (5 finalists).

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

11. DIET is our new neural network architecture for NLU
💡 To understand how DIET works, check
our YouTube channel
What is DIET?
● New state of the art neural network architecture for NLU
● Predicts intents and entities together
● Plug and play pretrained language models
12. How to use DIET in your Rasa project
Here’s an example config.yml
Before the DIET model, you can specify any
featurizer.
In our experiments, we use:
● Sparse features (aka no pre-trained model)
● GloVe (word vectors)
● BERT (large language model)
● ConveRT (pre-trained encoder for
conversations)
13. Experiments on the NLU-benchmark dataset
● Repo is on github
● Domain: human-robot interaction (smart home setting)
● 64 different intents
● 54 different entity types
● ~26k labelled examples
Previous state of the art:
● HERMIT NLU (Vanzo, Bastianelli, and Lemon @ SIGdial 2019)
● uses ELMo embeddings
14. Result 1: DIET outperforms SotA even without any pretrained embeddings
Previous state of the art: intent: 87.55 entities: 84.74
@alanmnichol
18. Which featurizer is best depends on your dataset, so try different ones!
At Rasa, we don’t believe in “one size fits all”
machine learning
● We aim to provide sensible defaults and
suggestions
● BUT even more important that Rasa models
are easy to customize

30. We found out that the Transformer Embedding Dialogue policy can untangle
sub-dialogues
@alanmnichol
paper
31. TED is available in Rasa 1.3 and up
The embedding policy (TED)
● better at handling unseen edge cases
● less likely to get confused when users
behave in highly unexpected ways
● used in combination with other policies
● Becoming the new default ML policy
(replacing KerasPolicy)
With all contextual assistants, please write tests!
@alanmnichol
32. So we now have the algorithms to handle this
@alanmnichol
33. But you also need training data!

Rasa Open Source is an open
source framework for natural
language understanding, dialogue
management, and integrations.
Rasa X is a toolset used
to improve a contextual
assistant built using
Rasa Open Source.
Deploy your minimum viable assistant on a server and improve it using Rasa X
37. How can the transitions be effectively tested in a large
dialogue tree, to ensure that the policy works as expected?
38. Will Rasa provide a way to select the best policy based on my
use case and training data?
39. Does Rasa support multi-label classification for intents and
entities?
40. Is there a way to do cross domain transfer learning using
Rasa? (For instance, a healthcare assistant trained on
healthcare terminology to an IT help desk assistant)
