On the ideal shortest vector problem over random rational primes
Yanbin Pan, Jun Xu, Nick Wadleigh +1
Any ideal in a number field can be factored into a product of prime ideals. In this paper we study the prime ideal shortest vector problem (SVP) in the ring …
SetRank: Learning a Permutation-Invariant Ranking Model for Information Retrieval
Liang Pang, Jun Xu, Qingyao Ai +3
In learning-to-rank for information retrieval, a ranking model is automatically learned from the data and then utilized to rank the sets of retrieved documents. Therefore, an ideal…
Neural or Statistical: An Empirical Study on Language Models for Chinese Input Recommendation on Mobile
Hainan Zhang, Yanyan Lan, Jiafeng Guo +2
Chinese input recommendation plays an important role in alleviating human cost in typing Chinese words, especially in the scenario of mobile applications. The fundamental problem i…
HAS-QA: Hierarchical Answer Spans Model for Open-domain Question Answering
Liang Pang, Yanyan Lan, Jiafeng Guo +3
This paper is concerned with open-domain question answering (i.e., OpenQA). Recently, some works have viewed this problem as a reading comprehension (RC) task, and directly applied…
Beyond Precision: A Study on Recall of Initial Retrieval with Neural Representations
Yan Xiao, Jiafeng Guo, Yixing Fan +3
Vocabulary mismatch is a central problem in information retrieval (IR), i.e., the relevant documents may not contain the same (symbolic) terms of the query. Recently, neural repres…
A Tree Search Algorithm for Sequence Labeling
Yadi Lao, Jun Xu, Yanyan Lan +3
In this paper we propose a novel reinforcement learning based model for sequence tagging, referred to as MM-Tag. Inspired by the success and methodology of the AlphaGo Zero, MM-Tag…
