In this work, we describe our experiments and participating systems in the BioASQ Task 9b Phase B challenge of biomedical question answering. We have focused on finding the ideal answers and investigated multi-task fine-tuning and gradual unfreezing techniques on transformer-based language models. For factoid questions, our ALBERT-based systems ranked first in test batch 1 and fourth in test batch 2. Our DistilBERT systems outperformed the ALBERT variants in test batches 4 and 5 despite having 81% fewer parameters than ALBERT. However, we observed that gradual unfreezing had no significant impact on the models accuracy compared to standard fine-tuning.

The question answering system can answer questions from various fields and forms with deep neural networks, but it still lacks effective ways when facing multiple evidences. We introduce a new model called SRQA, which means Synthetic Reader for Facto
id Question Answering. This model enhances the question answering system in the multi-document scenario from three aspects: model structure, optimization goal, and training method, corresponding to Multilayer Attention (MA), Cross Evidence (CE), and Adversarial Training (AT) respectively. First, we propose a multilayer attention network to obtain a better representation of the evidences. The multilayer attention mechanism conducts interaction between the question and the passage within each layer, making the token representation of evidences in each layer takes the requirement of the question into account. Second, we design a cross evidence strategy to choose the answer span within more evidences. We improve the optimization goal, considering all the answers locations in multiple evidences as training targets, which leads the model to reason among multiple evidences. Third, adversarial training is employed to high-level variables besides the word embedding in our model. A new normalization method is also proposed for adversarial perturbations so that we can jointly add perturbations to several target variables. As an effective regularization method, adversarial training enhances the models ability to process noisy data. Combining these three strategies, we enhance the contextual representation and locating ability of our model, which could synthetically extract the answer span from several evidences. We perform SRQA on the WebQA dataset, and experiments show that our model outperforms the state-of-the-art models (the best fuzzy score of our model is up to 78.56%, with an improvement of about 2%).
We introduce DELFT, a factoid question answering system which combines the nuance and depth of knowledge graph question answering approaches with the broader coverage of free-text. DELFT builds a free-text knowledge graph from Wikipedia, with entitie
s as nodes and sentences in which entities co-occur as edges. For each question, DELFT finds the subgraph linking question entity nodes to candidates using text sentences as edges, creating a dense and high coverage semantic graph. A novel graph neural network reasons over the free-text graph-combining evidence on the nodes via information along edge sentences-to select a final answer. Experiments on three question answering datasets show DELFT can answer entity-rich questions better than machine reading based models, bert-based answer ranking and memory networks. DELFTs advantage comes from both the high coverage of its free-text knowledge graph-more than double that of dbpedia relations-and the novel graph neural network which reasons on the rich but noisy free-text evidence.
We present some categorical investigations into Wittgensteins language-games, with applications to game-theoretic pragmatics and question-answering in natural language processing.
To bridge the gap between the capabilities of the state-of-the-art in factoid question answering (QA) and what users ask, we need large datasets of real user questions that capture the various question phenomena users are interested in, and the diver
se ways in which these questions are formulated. We introduce ComQA, a large dataset of real user questions that exhibit different challenging aspects such as compositionality, temporal reasoning, and comparisons. ComQA questions come from the WikiAnswers community QA platform, which typically contains questions that are not satisfactorily answerable by existing search engine technology. Through a large crowdsourcing effort, we clean the question dataset, group questions into paraphrase clusters, and annotate clusters with their answers. ComQA contains 11,214 questions grouped into 4,834 paraphrase clusters. We detail the process of constructing ComQA, including the measures taken to ensure its high quality while making effective use of crowdsourcing. We also present an extensive analysis of the dataset and the results achieved by state-of-the-art systems on ComQA, demonstrating that our dataset can be a driver of future research on QA.
The recent success of question answering systems is largely attributed to pre-trained language models. However, as language models are mostly pre-trained on general domain corpora such as Wikipedia, they often have difficulty in understanding biomedi
cal questions. In this paper, we investigate the performance of BioBERT, a pre-trained biomedical language model, in answering biomedical questions including factoid, list, and yes/no type questions. BioBERT uses almost the same structure across various question types and achieved the best performance in the 7th BioASQ Challenge (Task 7b, Phase B). BioBERT pre-trained on SQuAD or SQuAD 2.0 easily outperformed previous state-of-the-art models. BioBERT obtains the best performance when it uses the appropriate pre-/post-processing strategies for questions, passages, and answers.
