ORIG: Towards Robust Personalized Dialogue Generation via Order-Insensitive Representation Regularization

The implementation for ACL 2023 paper.

The repository is developed based on Microsoft DialoGPT, huggingface transformers and OpenAI GPT-2.

Setup & Installation (TL;DR)

Environment

Note: The script below may not be sufficient and missing packages need to be configured manually.
