| Challenge: | Large-scale, open Natural Language Inference datasets have catalyzed the development of NLI models that exhibit close to human-level performance, but the use of these models for other downstream NLP tasks has met with limited success. |
| Approach: | They use multiple-choice reading comprehension and checking factual correctness of textual summarization tasks to investigate potential reasons for this . authors leverage abundance of data from reading comprehension datasets into longer-premise NLI datasets to improve their models . |
| Outcome: | The proposed models outperform models trained on converted datasets due to the difference in premise lengths. |

| Challenge: | In recent past, Natural language Inference (NLI) has gained significant attention, but its true impact has not been well studied. |
| Approach: | They propose to transform a large RACE dataset into an NLI model and compare it to a state-of-the-art model. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms the previous model on a question-answer concatenation form and a coherent entailment form. |
