Question-type Driven Question Generation (D19-1)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing work suffers from mismatching between question type and answer . existing work fails to generate questions with type how while answer is personal name .
Approach: They propose to automatically predict the question type based on the input answer and context.
Outcome: The proposed model improves on both SQuAD and MARCO datasets and improves accuracy on the input answer and context.
