Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Explicit Span-Sentence Predication solves location unit ambiguity problem in many languages, allowing model to determine which sentence contains the answer span when sentence itself has not been clearly defined at all. |
| Approach: | They propose a machine-learning reader with Explicit Span-Sentence Predication to solve this problem by analyzing Chinese sentences. |
| Outcome: | The proposed reader achieves state-of-the-art on Chinese MRC benchmark and shows great potential in dealing with other languages. |
An MRC Framework for Semantic Role Labeling (2022.coling-1)

| Challenge: | Existing work on semantic role labels ignores the semantic connection between the two tasks . et al. (2010) defined two types of semantic roles: core roles and non-core roles. |
| Approach: | They propose to use machine reading comprehension to bridge the gap between these two tasks . they formalize predicate disambiguation as multiple-choice machine reading understanding . |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework achieves state-of-the-art or comparable results to previous work . it uses the descriptions of candidate senses of a given predicate as options to select the correct sense . |
