Petr gave us an overview of their submission, the design choices that led to them winning the competition, including combining a hardcoded dialog tree and a neural generator model and extracting implicit personal information about users from their responses, and some outstanding challenges. Petr Marek is a PhD student at the Czech Technical University in Prague.
