<abstract>Generating semantically coherent responses is still a major challenge in dialogue generation. Different from conventional text generation tasks, the mapping between inputs and responses in conversations is more complicated, which highly demands the understanding of utterance-level semantic dependency, a relation between the whole meanings of inputs and outputs.

The auto-encoders learn the semantic representations of inputs and responses, and the mapping module learns to connect the utterance-level representations.
