Do Answers to Boolean Questions Need Explanations? Yes
Sara Rosenthal, Mihaela Bornea, Avirup Sil +2
Existing datasets that contain boolean questions, such as BoolQ and TYDI QA , provide the user with a YES/NO response to the question. However, a one word response is not sufficien…
MuMuQA: Multimedia Multi-Hop News Question Answering via Cross-Media Knowledge Extraction and Grounding
Revanth Gangi Reddy, Xilin Rui, Manling Li +9
Recently, there has been an increasing interest in building question answering (QA) models that reason across multiple modalities, such as text and images. However, QA using images…
Learning Cross-Lingual IR from an English Retriever
Yulong Li, Martin Franz, Md Arafat Sultan +3
We present DR.DECR (Dense Retrieval with Distillation-Enhanced Cross-Lingual Representation), a new cross-lingual information retrieval (CLIR) system trained using multi-stage know…
On The Ingredients of an Effective Zero-shot Semantic Parser
Pengcheng Yin, John Wieting, Avirup Sil +1
Semantic parsers map natural language utterances into meaning representations (e.g., programs). Such models are typically bottlenecked by the paucity of training data due to the re…
Improved Text Classification via Contrastive Adversarial Training
Lin Pan, Chung-Wei Hang, Avirup Sil +1
We propose a simple and general method to regularize the fine-tuning of Transformer-based encoders for text classification tasks. Specifically, during fine-tuning we generate adver…
VAULT: VAriable Unified Long Text Representation for Machine Reading Comprehension
Haoyang Wen, Anthony Ferritto, Heng Ji +2
Existing models on Machine Reading Comprehension (MRC) require complex model architecture for effectively modeling long texts with paragraph representation and classification, ther…
