Papers with MCTest
Reading Comprehension with Graph-based Temporal-Casual Reasoning (C18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for reading comprehension tasks ignore semantic relations between sentences or use sliding window scanning over the words of the passage without sentence breaks. |
| Approach: | They propose a method to integrate information from multiple sentences to answer complex questions. |
| Outcome: | Experiments on RACE and MCTest show that the proposed approach improves state-of-the-art methods on simple factoid questions. |
Inferential Machine Comprehension: Answering Questions by Recursively Deducing the Evidence Chain from Text (P19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Experimental results on 3 popular datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach. |
| Approach: | They propose a network to solve the inference problem by decomposing text into a series of attention-based reasoning steps. |
| Outcome: | The proposed network can be used to understand the meanings of given text to answer questions. |
Improving Machine Reading Comprehension with General Reading Strategies (N19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent studies have shown that reading strategies improve comprehension levels for readers lacking adequate prior knowledge. |
| Approach: | They propose three general strategies to improve machine reading comprehension (MRC) by fine-tuning a pre-trained model with strategies and a target task. |
| Outcome: | The proposed models improve non-extractive machine reading comprehension (MRC) on the largest general domain multiple-choice dataset RACE. |
Semi-supervised Training Data Generation for Multilingual Question Answering (L18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing datasets for question answering (QA) tasks mostly support only English . however, existing resources for these tasks are labor intensive . |
| Approach: | They propose to combine Korean QA datasets with machine-translated English resources to build seed resources. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach leads to 71.50 F1 on Korean QA (comparable to 77.3 F1) |
