Effective Pre-Training Objectives for Transformer-based Autoencoders

Luca Di Liello, Matteo Gabburo, Alessandro Moschitti

In this paper, we study trade-offs between efficiency, cost and accuracy when pre-training Transformer encoders with different pre-training objectives. For this purpose, we analyze…

Knowledge Transfer from Answer Ranking to Answer Generation

Matteo Gabburo, Rik Koncel-Kedziorski, Siddhant Garg +2

Recent studies show that Question Answering (QA) based on Answer Sentence Selection (AS2) can be improved by generating an improved answer from the top-k ranked answer sentences (t…

DP-KB: Data Programming with Knowledge Bases Improves Transformer Fine Tuning for Answer Sentence Selection

Nic Jedema, Thuy Vu, Manish Gupta +1

While transformers demonstrate impressive performance on many knowledge intensive (KI) tasks, their ability to serve as implicit knowledge bases (KBs) remains limited, as shown on…

In Situ Answer Sentence Selection at Web-scale

Zeyu Zhang, Thuy Vu, Alessandro Moschitti

Current answer sentence selection (AS2) applied in open-domain question answering (ODQA) selects answers by ranking a large set of possible candidates, i.e., sentences, extracted f…

Will this Question be Answered? Question Filtering via Answer Model Distillation for Efficient Question Answering

Siddhant Garg, Alessandro Moschitti

In this paper we propose a novel approach towards improving the efficiency of Question Answering (QA) systems by filtering out questions that will not be answered by them. This is…
