### Dataset Summary

Multilingual dIalogAct benchMark is a collection of resources for training, evaluating, and
analyzing natural language understanding systems specifically designed for spoken language. Datasets
are in English, French, German, Italian and Spanish. They cover a variety of domains including
spontaneous speech, scripted scenarios, and joint task completion. All datasets contain dialogue act
labels.

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
