COVID-19 Claim Radar: A Structured Claim Extraction and Tracking System
To tackle the challenge of accurate and timely communication regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, we present a COVID-19 Claim Radar to automatically extract supporting and refuting claims on a daily basis.
A Zero-Shot Claim Detection Framework Using Question Answering
In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in claim detection as an important building block for misinformation detection.
Towards Robust Neural Retrieval with Source Domain Synthetic Pre-Finetuning
Research on neural IR has so far been focused primarily on standard supervised learning settings, where it outperforms traditional term matching baselines.
Towards Better Generalization in Open-Domain Question Answering by Mitigating Context Memorization
In addition, it is still unclear how well an OpenQA model can transfer to completely new knowledge domains.
Persona-DB: Efficient Large Language Model Personalization for Response Prediction with Collaborative Data Refinement
The increasing demand for personalized interactions with large language models (LLMs) calls for the development of methodologies capable of accurately and efficiently identifying user opinions and preferences.
Factcheck-Bench: Fine-Grained Evaluation Benchmark for Automatic Fact-checkers
The increased use of large language models (LLMs) across a variety of real-world applications calls for mechanisms to verify the factual accuracy of their outputs.
Social Commonsense-Guided Search Query Generation for Open-Domain Knowledge-Powered Conversations
Open-domain dialog involves generating search queries that help obtain relevant knowledge for holding informative conversations.
C-PMI: Conditional Pointwise Mutual Information for Turn-level Dialogue Evaluation
Existing reference-free turn-level evaluation metrics for chatbots inadequately capture the interaction between the user and the system.
Inference-time Re-ranker Relevance Feedback for Neural Information Retrieval
Neural information retrieval often adopts a retrieve-and-rerank framework: a bi-encoder network first retrieves K (e. g., 100) candidates that are then re-ranked using a more powerful cross-encoder model to rank the better candidates higher.
SmartBook: AI-Assisted Situation Report Generation
Further, experiments show that expert analysts tend to add more information into the SmartBook reports, with only 2. 3% of the existing tokens being deleted, meaning SmartBook can serve as a useful foundation for analysts to build upon when creating intelligence reports.
SumREN: Summarizing Reported Speech about Events in News
A primary objective of news articles is to establish the factual record for an event, frequently achieved by conveying both the details of the specified event (i. e., the 5 Ws; Who, What, Where, When and Why regarding the event) and how people reacted to it (i. e., reported statements).
Entity-Conditioned Question Generation for Robust Attention Distribution in Neural Information Retrieval
On two public IR benchmarks, we empirically show that the proposed method helps improve both the model's attention patterns and retrieval performance, including in zero-shot settings.
Synthetic Target Domain Supervision for Open Retrieval QA
Neural passage retrieval is a new and promising approach in open retrieval question answering.
MuMuQA: Multimedia Multi-Hop News Question Answering via Cross-Media Knowledge Extraction and Grounding
Specifically, the task involves multi-hop questions that require reasoning over image-caption pairs to identify the grounded visual object being referred to and then predicting a span from the news body text to answer the question.
NewsClaims: A New Benchmark for Claim Detection from News with Attribute Knowledge
In this work, we present NewsClaims, a new benchmark for attribute-aware claim detection in the news domain.
InfoSurgeon: Cross-Media Fine-grained Information Consistency Checking for Fake News Detection
To defend against machine-generated fake news, an effective mechanism is urgently needed.
Towards Robust Neural Retrieval Models with Synthetic Pre-Training
Recent work has shown that commonly available machine reading comprehension (MRC) datasets can be used to train high-performance neural information retrieval (IR) systems.
End-to-End QA on COVID-19: Domain Adaptation with Synthetic Training
End-to-end question answering (QA) requires both information retrieval (IR) over a large document collection and machine reading comprehension (MRC) on the retrieved passages.
Answer Span Correction in Machine Reading Comprehension
Answer validation in machine reading comprehension (MRC) consists of verifying an extracted answer against an input context and question pair.
Pushing the Limits of AMR Parsing with Self-Learning
Abstract Meaning Representation (AMR) parsing has experienced a notable growth in performance in the last two years, due both to the impact of transfer learning and the development of novel architectures specific to AMR.

Multi-Stage Pre-training for Low-Resource Domain Adaptation
Transfer learning techniques are particularly useful in NLP tasks where a sizable amount of high-quality annotated data is difficult to obtain.
