In this paper, we study automatic question generation, the task of creating questions from corresponding text passages where some certain spans of the text can serve as the answers. We propose an Extended Answer-aware Network (EAN) which is trained with Word-based Coverage Mechanism (WCM) and decodes with Uncertainty-aware Beam Search (UBS). The EAN represents the target answer by its surrounding sentence with an encoder, and incorporates the information of the extended answer into paragraph representation with gated paragraph-to-answer attention to tackle the problem of the inadequate representation of the target answer. To reduce undesirable repetition, the WCM penalizes repeatedly attending to the same words at different time-steps in the training stage. The UBS aims to seek a better balance between the model confidence in copying words from an input text paragraph and the confidence in generating words from a vocabulary. We conduct experiments on the SQuAD dataset, and the results show our approach achieves significant performance improvement.

In education, open-ended quiz questions have become an important tool for assessing the knowledge of students. Yet, manually preparing such questions is a tedious task, and thus automatic question generation has been proposed as a possible alternativ
e. So far, the vast majority of research has focused on generating the question text, relying on question answering datasets with readily picked answers, and the problem of how to come up with answer candidates in the first place has been largely ignored. Here, we aim to bridge this gap. In particular, we propose a model that can generate a specified number of answer candidates for a given passage of text, which can then be used by instructors to write questions manually or can be passed as an input to automatic answer-aware question generators. Our experiments show that our proposed answer candidate generation model outperforms several baselines.
In e-commerce portals, generating answers for product-related questions has become a crucial task. In this paper, we focus on the task of product-aware answer generation, which learns to generate an accurate and complete answer from large-scale unlab
eled e-commerce reviews and product attributes. However, safe answer problems pose significant challenges to text generation tasks, and e-commerce question-answering task is no exception. To generate more meaningful answers, in this paper, we propose a novel generative neural model, called the Meaningful Product Answer Generator (MPAG), which alleviates the safe answer problem by taking product reviews, product attributes, and a prototype answer into consideration. Product reviews and product attributes are used to provide meaningful content, while the prototype answer can yield a more diverse answer pattern. To this end, we propose a novel answer generator with a review reasoning module and a prototype answer reader. Our key idea is to obtain the correct question-aware information from a large scale collection of reviews and learn how to write a coherent and meaningful answer from an existing prototype answer. To be more specific, we propose a read-and-write memory consisting of selective writing units to conduct reasoning among these reviews. We then employ a prototype reader consisting of comprehensive matching to extract the answer skeleton from the prototype answer. Finally, we propose an answer editor to generate the final answer by taking the question and the above parts as input. Conducted on a real-world dataset collected from an e-commerce platform, extensive experimental results show that our model achieves state-of-the-art performance in terms of both automatic metrics and human evaluations. Human evaluation also demonstrates that our model can consistently generate specific and proper answers.
We propose a simple method to generate multilingual question and answer pairs on a large scale through the use of a single generative model. These synthetic samples can be used to improve the zero-shot performance of multilingual QA models on target
languages. Our proposed multi-task training of the generative model only requires the labeled training samples in English, thus removing the need for such samples in the target languages, making it applicable to far more languages than those with labeled data. Human evaluations indicate the majority of such samples are grammatically correct and sensible. Experimental results show our proposed approach can achieve large gains on the XQuAD dataset, reducing the gap between zero-shot and supervised performance of smaller QA models on various languages.
In this paper, the answer selection problem in community question answering (CQA) is regarded as an answer sequence labeling task, and a novel approach is proposed based on the recurrent architecture for this problem. Our approach applies convolution
neural networks (CNNs) to learning the joint representation of question-answer pair firstly, and then uses the joint representation as input of the long short-term memory (LSTM) to learn the answer sequence of a question for labeling the matching quality of each answer. Experiments conducted on the SemEval 2015 CQA dataset shows the effectiveness of our approach.
Existing question answering (QA) datasets are created mainly for the application of having AI to be able to answer questions asked by humans. But in educational applications, teachers and parents sometimes may not know what questions they should ask
a child that can maximize their language learning results. With a newly released book QA dataset (FairytaleQA), which educational experts labeled on 46 fairytale storybooks for early childhood readers, we developed an automated QA generation model architecture for this novel application. Our model (1) extracts candidate answers from a given storybook passage through carefully designed heuristics based on a pedagogical framework; (2) generates appropriate questions corresponding to each extracted answer using a language model; and, (3) uses another QA model to rank top QA-pairs. Automatic and human evaluations show that our model outperforms baselines. We also demonstrate that our method can help with the scarcity issue of the childrens book QA dataset via data augmentation on 200 unlabeled storybooks.
