Improving Opinion-based Question Answering Systems Through Label Error Detection and Overwrite

Xiao Yang, Ahmed K. Mohamed, Shashank Jain +6

Label error is a ubiquitous problem in annotated data. Large amounts of label error substantially degrades the quality of deep learning models. Existing methods to tackle the label…

Decoupled Transformer for Scalable Inference in Open-domain Question Answering

Haytham ElFadeel, Stan Peshterliev

Large transformer models, such as BERT, achieve state-of-the-art results in machine reading comprehension (MRC) for open-domain question answering (QA). However, transformers have…

Robustly Optimized and Distilled Training for Natural Language Understanding

Haytham ElFadeel, Stan Peshterliev

In this paper, we explore multi-task learning (MTL) as a second pretraining step to learn enhanced universal language representation for transformer language models. We use the MTL…

Conversational Answer Generation and Factuality for Reading Comprehension Question-Answering

Stan Peshterliev, Barlas Oguz, Debojeet Chatterjee +2

Question answering (QA) is an important use case on voice assistants. A popular approach to QA is extractive reading comprehension (RC) which finds an answer span in a text passage…

Self-Attention Gazetteer Embeddings for Named-Entity Recognition

Stanislav Peshterliev, Christophe Dupuy, Imre Kiss

Recent attempts to ingest external knowledge into neural models for named-entity recognition (NER) have exhibited mixed results. In this work, we present GazSelfAttn, a novel gazet…
