Reducing Transformer Depth on Demand with Structured Dropout

pytorch/fairseq ICLR 2020

Overparameterized transformer networks have obtained state of the art results in various natural language processing tasks, such as machine translation, language modeling, and question answering.

Relevance-guided Supervision for OpenQA with ColBERT

stanford-futuredata/ColBERT 1 Jul 2020

In much recent work, the retriever is a learned component that uses coarse-grained vector representations of questions and passages.

Gated-Attention Readers for Text Comprehension

bdhingra/ga-reader ACL 2017

In this paper we study the problem of answering cloze-style questions over documents.

Break It Down: A Question Understanding Benchmark

allenai/Break TACL 2020

Understanding natural language questions entails the ability to break down a question into the requisite steps for computing its answer.

ktrain: A Low-Code Library for Augmented Machine Learning

amaiya/ktrain 19 Apr 2020

We present ktrain, a low-code Python library that makes machine learning more accessible and easier to apply.

Distilling Knowledge from Reader to Retriever for Question Answering

facebookresearch/FiD ICLR 2021

A challenge of using such methods is to obtain supervised data to train the retriever model, corresponding to pairs of query and support documents.

Learning Dense Representations of Phrases at Scale

jhyuklee/DensePhrases ACL 2021

Open-domain question answering can be reformulated as a phrase retrieval problem, without the need for processing documents on-demand during inference (Seo et al., 2019).

Learning Discrete Representations via Constrained Clustering for Effective and Efficient Dense Retrieval

jingtaozhan/repconc 12 Oct 2021

However, the efficiency of most existing DR models is limited by the large memory cost of storing dense vectors and the time-consuming nearest neighbor search (NNS) in vector space.

SearchQA: A New Q&A Dataset Augmented with Context from a Search Engine

nyu-dl/SearchQA 18 Apr 2017

We publicly release a new large-scale dataset, called SearchQA, for machine comprehension, or question-answering.

Learning to Attend On Essential Terms: An Enhanced Retriever-Reader Model for Open-domain Question Answering

nijianmo/arc-etrr-code NAACL 2019

In this paper we propose a retriever-reader model that learns to attend on essential terms during the question answering process.
