The 27th Annual Meeting of the Special Interest Group on Discourse and Dialogue, 3-5 August 2026. Atlanta, Georgia, USA. #SIGDIAL2026







🚀Excited to share our new evaluation paper "TD-Eval: Revisiting Task-Oriented Dialogue Evaluation by Combining Turn-Level Precision with Dialogue-Level Comparisons"! 🔄 🤖⚔️TOD systems have rapidly evolved thanks to LLMs, but traditional metrics remain insufficient in evaluating their current capabilities—they focus on final dialogue scores, miss turn‑level intermediate errors, and cannot keep up with modern system sophistication. So, how can we measure real conversational quality? Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2504.19982 Webpage: emrecanacikgoz.github.io/TD-Eval









Our paper submission deadline is approaching fast! ✍️ Abstract deadline: 21st April Paper deadline 28th April Come and join us in beautiful Avignon, France, to discuss discourse and dialogue 🎉 We invite submissions of original research (long papers, short papers, and demos)
