Abstract: Disclosed herein are techniques for using a generative adversarial network (GAN) to train a semantic parser of a dialog system. A method described herein involves accessing seed data that includes seed tuples. Each seed tuple includes a respective seed utterance and a respective seed logical form corresponding to the respective seed utterance. The method further includes training a semantic parser and a discriminator in a GAN. The semantic parser learns to map utterances to logical forms based on output from the discriminator, and the discriminator learns to recognize authentic logical forms based on output from the semantic parser. The semantic parser may then be integrated into a dialog system.
