A Persian Benchmark for Joint Intent Detection and Slot Filling

Natural Language Understanding (NLU) is important in today's technology as it enables machines to comprehend and process human language, leading to improved human-computer interactions and advancements in fields such as virtual assistants, chatbots, and language-based AI systems. This paper highlights the significance of advancing the field of NLU for low-resource languages. With intent detection and slot filling being crucial tasks in NLU, the widely used datasets ATIS and SNIPS have been utilized in the past. However, these datasets only cater to the English language and do not support other languages. In this work, we aim to address this gap by creating a Persian benchmark for joint intent detection and slot filling based on the ATIS dataset. To evaluate the effectiveness of our benchmark, we employ state-of-the-art methods for intent detection and slot filling.

Translation Invariant Fréchet Distance Queries

The Fréchet distance is a popular similarity measure between curves. For some applications, it is desirable to match the curves under translation before computing the Fréchet distance between them. This variant is called the Translation Invariant Fréchet distance, and algorithms to compute it are well studied. The query version, finding an optimal placement in the plane for a query segment where the Fréchet distance becomes minimized, is much less well understood. We study Translation Invariant Fréchet distance queries in a restricted setting of horizontal query segments. More specifically, we preprocess a trajectory in $\mathcal O(n^2 \log^2 n) $ time and $\mathcal O(n^{3/2})$ space, such that for any subtrajectory and any horizontal query segment we can compute their Translation Invariant Fréchet distance in $\mathcal O(\text{polylog } n)$ time. We hope this will be a step towards answering Translation Invariant Fréchet queries between arbitrary trajectories.
