LifeMultiTurnStreamingCoT

Version: v0.4 — Explicit Streaming Reasoning Release

LifeMultiTurnStreamingCoT is a text-to-text multi-turn life-domain dataset. Each row uses previous user-assistant dialogue turns as input, deterministic turn-level streaming state tracking as intermediate supervision, a compact final-state-based deep reasoning summary, and the next assistant turn as the answer.

This v0.4 release keeps the real DailyDialog, MultiWOZ 2.2, and Taskmaster sources while adding explicit turn-aligned streaming reasoning. No LLM calls are used for construction. The reasoning traces are deterministic rule-based annotations over visible dialogue prefixes and repaired state deltas.

Sources

• Taskmaster: real task-oriented dialogue from Taskmaster conversations.

Schema

Rows contain id, source_dataset, source_id, dialogue_id, domain, task_type, dialogue_history, streaming_chunks, top-level streaming_reasoning, deep_reasoning, answer, metadata, quality_flags, quality_score, is_high_quality, and split.

streaming_chunks[i] includes the original chunk fields plus state_before, state_update, state_after, state_delta, reasoning, reasoning_type, and reasoning_confidence. The top-level streaming_reasoning[i] list is aligned with streaming_chunks[i] by chunk_id and turn_id. The final schema remains unified across sources; source-specific details such as source, category, domain/services, scenario, original split, and raw file are kept in metadata.

Splits

• train: training rows after deterministic dialogue-level split.
• eval: evaluation rows after deterministic dialogue-level split.
• high_quality: rows from train+eval where is_high_quality is true, quality_tier is gold/silver, safety is safe, and explicit streaming reasoning is strong/usable. Each high-quality row keeps metadata.original_release_split.

Version History

v0.4 — Explicit Streaming Reasoning Release

• Added top-level streaming_reasoning aligned with streaming_chunks.
• Added per-chunk state_delta, reasoning, reasoning_type, and reasoning_confidence.
• Added deterministic slot repair/suppression for unsupported visible-prefix slot evidence, including budget numeric misreads.
• Added metadata.streaming_reasoning_method, metadata.has_explicit_streaming_reasoning, metadata.streaming_reasoning_quality, metadata.slot_repair_applied, and metadata.suppressed_slots.
• Added explicit reasoning quality flags and a high_quality split.

v0.3 — Safety and Grounding Quality Release

• Added safety/content filtering for training suitability.
• Added grounded slot extraction checks.
• Added target answer usefulness checks.
• Added taxonomy confidence and evidence fields.
• Added quality tiers: gold, silver, bronze, and drop.
• Updated is_high_quality to use quality tiers.
• Removed or downgraded unsafe, ungrounded, malformed, or low-usefulness samples.

v0.2 — Taxonomy-Aware Quality Release

• Added domain_category, intent_category, and scenario_category.
• Added deterministic source-aware taxonomy rules.
• Improved category-aware quality thresholds.
• Reduced false penalties for long task-oriented dialogues.

v0.1 — Initial Real-Source Release

• Added real DailyDialog, MultiWOZ 2.2, and Taskmaster data.
• Built a balanced multi-source dataset with rule-based streaming/deep reasoning.

Category Taxonomy

Each sample includes a coarse metadata.category and three additional taxonomy fields:

• metadata.domain_category: broad topic/domain such as travel, dining, lodging, entertainment, health, education, work, shopping, or general daily life.
• metadata.intent_category: interaction intent such as information request, recommendation, booking, planning, customer support, small talk, or emotional support.
• metadata.scenario_category: more specific scenario such as restaurant booking, hotel search, taxi booking, train booking, food ordering, movie ticketing, schedule planning, or workplace conversation.

The taxonomy is deterministic and source-aware. MultiWOZ uses domain/service annotations, Taskmaster uses scenario/file metadata when available, and DailyDialog uses lightweight keyword and dialogue-pattern rules. DailyDialog rows may have low taxonomy confidence when only weak keyword evidence is available.

Quality Metadata

Each row includes additional metadata fields:

• metadata.safety_category
• metadata.safety_flags
• metadata.is_safe_for_training
• metadata.grounding_flags
• metadata.slot_grounding_score
• metadata.has_grounding_issue
• metadata.target_answer_flags
• metadata.target_answer_quality
• metadata.taxonomy_confidence
• metadata.taxonomy_evidence
• metadata.quality_tier
• metadata.streaming_reasoning_method
• metadata.has_explicit_streaming_reasoning
• metadata.streaming_reasoning_quality
• metadata.slot_repair_applied
• metadata.suppressed_slots

Recommended default training filter:

row["is_high_quality"] is True
and row["metadata"]["is_safe_for_training"] is True
and row["metadata"]["quality_tier"] in ["gold", "silver"]
and row["metadata"]["has_explicit_streaming_reasoning"] is True
and row["metadata"]["streaming_reasoning_quality"] in ["strong", "usable"]

Reasoning

Streaming reasoning is generated by deterministic rule-based state tracking over turn-level chunks. v0.4 explicit reasoning is generated only from visible prefix state, source metadata, repaired state deltas, and safety/taxonomy metadata. It does not call an LLM and does not rewrite the answer. DailyDialog rows focus on daily context and continuity. MultiWOZ and Taskmaster rows use task-oriented state changes, missing-slot status, and next-step policy. Deep reasoning is a compact global summary from the final tracked state, dialogue history, and target answer.

Quality Filtering

The quality checks are category-aware and include safety, grounding, target usefulness, explicit streaming reasoning quality, and tiering. Long task-oriented conversations are no longer penalized in the same way as short daily dialogues. Some heuristic checks, including weak final state and premature response detection, are kept as diagnostic warnings rather than hard filters.

quality_flags and metadata.quality_checks support filtering by real-source status, multi-turn context, non-empty reasoning, placeholder detection, category-aware length checks, malformed-row checks, repetition checks, grounding checks, safety checks, target-answer checks, explicit reasoning checks, and role alternation. Raw external data is not committed to git; processed train/eval/high_quality files are intended for upload to skyzhou06/LifeMultiTurnStreamingCoT.

Leakage Control

Train/eval splitting is performed by dialogue_id, so prefix samples from the same dialogue do not appear in both splits.
