Cross-lingual adaptation has shown effectiveness in low-resource spoken language understanding (SLU) systems.
However, existing approaches often show unsatisfactory performance on intent detection and slot filling, especially for distant languages,
which are dramatically different from source language in scripts, morphology, or syntax.
To solve the aforementioned challenges, we propose Latent Dialogue Action (LaDA) layer to 
optimize decoding strategy.
The model consists of an extra latent dialogue action layer. It enables our model to enhance a system’s ability to
handle conversations in complex multi-lingual intent and slot value of distant languages.
To our best knowledge, our work is the first
comprehensive study of the use of latent variables for cross-lingual SLU
policy optimization during decode stage. LaDA
achieves state-of-the-art results in zero-shot and few-shot adaptation both on public datasets.

LaDA: Latent Dialogue Action For Zero-shot Cross-lingual Neural Network Language Modeling

This session has no scheduled virtual poster presentation time, but attendees will be able to comment and ask questions about your work/research asynchronously throughout the conference.<br>

**If you are a virtual poster presenter**, you can leave a message in your poster area chat space to advise times (and time zone) that you will be available either in the chat box, or by setting up your own online meeting room (Zoom, etc.).<br>
**If you are an attendee**, please check each poster's chat box and arrange time with presenter.<br>

The 45th Annual Meeting of the Cognitive Science Society will take place in Sydney, Australia as a modified hybrid conference. Presentations from the main-session room will be live-streamed every day for all events. This will include all invited talks and award sessions. Recordings of all CogSci 2023 sessions will be made available for on-demand viewing after the conference.<br>
The in-person component will be held at the International Convention Centre Sydney at Darling Harbour. The Conference will take place Wednesday July 26th – Saturday July 29th, 2023 (Wednesday, July 26th is the Workshops Day).
