### Dataset Summary
The Switchboard Dialog Act Corpus (SwDA) extends the Switchboard-1 Telephone Speech Corpus, Release 2 with
turn/utterance-level dialog-act tags. The tags summarize syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic information about the
associated turn. The SwDA project was undertaken at UC Boulder in the late 1990s.
The SwDA is not inherently linked to the Penn Treebank 3 parses of Switchboard, and it is far from straightforward to
align the two resources. In addition, the SwDA is not distributed with the Switchboard's tables of metadata about the
conversations and their participants.

### Languages
The language supported is English.
## Dataset Structure
Utterance are tagged with the [SWBD-DAMSL](https://web.stanford.edu/~jurafsky/ws97/manual.august1.html) DA.
### Data Instances
An example from the dataset is:
`{'dialogue_act_tag': 17, 'speaker': 0, 'utterance_text': 'Okay.'}`
where 17 correspond to `fo_o_fw_"_by_bc` (Other)
### Data Fields
`speaker` - Refers to the current speaker talking. It is used to detect when a speaker change occurs.
There are two values for speaker: `A` and `B`. This does not mean we only have tow speakers in the whole datasets.
It's only used to signal if next utterance is from same speaker or from next speaker. Since we encoded all labels
`A=0` and `B=1`.
`utterance_text` - Text that a speaker says.
`dialogue_act_tag` - Dialogue act label associated with the `utterance_text`. There are 41 dialogue act labels for this
dataset. Each dialogue act label has a specific meaning:
