This paper presents a novel approach to train chatbots that can solve complex problems through conversations with users. The proposed system consists of a virtual problem, a simulated user, and a Deep Q-Network (DQN)-based chatbot architecture. The chatbot is trained using reinforcement learning to solve the problem through dialogue with the simulated user. The authors explore different training methods, including curriculum learning, and analyze the effect of modified reward functions on model performance as the environment complexity increases.

The goal of this paper is to develop a chatbot that can solve evolving problems by conversing with users about a problem it cannot directly observe. To achieve this, the authors propose an architecture combining a virtual problem, a simulated user, and a DQN-based chatbot. The chatbot learns through dialogue with the simulated user using reinforcement learning. The paper explores different training methods and their impact on model performance as the environment complexity increases.
