Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing word sense disambiguation and named entity recognition systems have no explicit metonymy detection. |
| Approach: | They propose an end-to-end word-level classification approach based only on BERT . they show that their approach generalises well to unseen data . |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach surpasses conventional models and benchmarks on 5 datasets and generalises well to unseen data. |

| Challenge: | Existing reading comprehension datasets focus on single-span answers, but multi-spread questions are less studied. |
| Approach: | They propose a new reading comprehension dataset that focuses on multi-span questions . they introduce new metrics for the purposes of multi--spontaneous question answering evaluation . |
| Outcome: | The proposed model beats baselines and achieves state-of-the-art on the existing dataset. |
