Pavan Kapanipathi, Ibrahim Abdelaziz, Srinivas Ravishankar +27
Knowledge base question answering (KBQA)is an important task in Natural Language Processing. Existing approaches face significant challenges including complex question understandin…
Infusing Knowledge into the Textual Entailment Task Using Graph Convolutional Networks
Pavan Kapanipathi, Veronika Thost, Siva Sankalp Patel +10
Textual entailment is a fundamental task in natural language processing. Most approaches for solving the problem use only the textual content present in training data. A few approa…
High-Fidelity Vector Space Models of Structured Data
Maxwell Crouse, Achille Fokoue, Maria Chang +6
Machine learning systems regularly deal with structured data in real-world applications. Unfortunately, such data has been difficult to faithfully represent in a way that most mach…
Answering Science Exam Questions Using Query Rewriting with Background Knowledge
Ryan Musa, Xiaoyan Wang, Achille Fokoue +6
Open-domain question answering (QA) is an important problem in AI and NLP that is emerging as a bellwether for progress on the generalizability of AI methods and techniques. Much o…
Improving Natural Language Inference Using External Knowledge in the Science Questions Domain
Xiaoyan Wang, Pavan Kapanipathi, Ryan Musa +8
Natural Language Inference (NLI) is fundamental to many Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications including semantic search and question answering. The NLI problem has gained…
