Capturing Row and Column Semantics in Transformer Based Question Answering over Tables

1 code implementation NAACL 2021 Michael Glass, Mustafa Canim, Alfio Gliozzo, Saneem Chemmengath, Vishwajeet Kumar, Rishav Chakravarti, Avi Sil, Feifei Pan, Samarth Bharadwaj, Nicolas Rodolfo Fauceglia

While this model yields extremely high accuracy at finding cell values on recent benchmarks, a second model we propose, called RCI representation, provides a significant efficiency advantage for online QA systems over tables by materializing embeddings for existing tables.

Towards Confident Machine Reading Comprehension

no code implementations20 Jan 2021 Rishav Chakravarti, Avirup Sil

Performance prediction is particularly important in cases of domain shift (as measured by training RC models on SQUAD 2. 0 and evaluating on NQ), where Mr. C not only improves AUC, but also traditional answerability prediction (as measured by a 5 point improvement in F1).

A Study on Passage Re-ranking in Embedding based Unsupervised Semantic Search

no code implementations22 Apr 2018 Md. Faisal Mahbub Chowdhury, Vijil Chenthamarakshan, Rishav Chakravarti, Alfio M. Gliozzo

State of the art approaches for (embedding based) unsupervised semantic search exploits either compositional similarity (of a query and a passage) or pair-wise word (or term) similarity (from the query and the passage).
