Did Aristotle Use a Laptop? A Question Answering Benchmark with Implicit Reasoning Strategies
A key limitation in current datasets for multi-hop reasoning is that the required steps for answering the question are mentioned in it explicitly.
IIRC: A Dataset of Incomplete Information Reading Comprehension Questions
However, most existing reading comprehension (RC) tasks only focus on questions for which the contexts provide all the information required to answer them, thus not evaluating a system's performance at identifying a potential lack of sufficient information and locating sources for that information.
Temporal Reasoning on Implicit Events from Distant Supervision
We propose TRACIE, a novel temporal reasoning dataset that evaluates the degree to which systems understand implicit events -- events that are not mentioned explicitly in natural language text but can be inferred from it.
ReadOnce Transformers: Reusable Representations of Text for Transformers
We present ReadOnce Transformers, an approach to convert a transformer-based model into one that can build an information-capturing, task-independent, and compressed representation of text.
UnQovering Stereotyping Biases via Underspecified Questions
Our broad study reveals that (1) all these models, with and without fine-tuning, have notable stereotyping biases in these classes; (2) larger models often have higher bias; and (3) the effect of fine-tuning on bias varies strongly with the dataset and the model size.
Text Modular Networks: Learning to Decompose Tasks in the Language of Existing Models
We propose a general framework called Text Modular Networks(TMNs) for building interpretable systems that learn to solve complex tasks by decomposing them into simpler ones solvable by existing models.

For a recent large-scale model (XLNet), we show that only 18 points out of its answer F1 score of 72 on HotpotQA are obtained through multifact reasoning, roughly the same as that of a simpler RNN baseline.
UnifiedQA: Crossing Format Boundaries With a Single QA System
As evidence, we use the latest advances in language modeling to build a single pre-trained QA model, UnifiedQA, that performs surprisingly well across 17 QA datasets spanning 4 diverse formats.

On the Possibilities and Limitations of Multi-hop Reasoning Under Linguistic Imperfections
The idea is to consider two interrelated spaces: a conceptual meaning space that is unambiguous and complete but hidden, and a linguistic space that captures a noisy grounding of the meaning space in the words of a language---the level at which all systems, whether neural or symbolic, operate.
