We investigate a framework for machine reading, inspired by real world information-seeking problems, where a meta question answering system interacts with a black box environment. The environment encapsulates a competitive machine reader based on BERT, providing candidate answers to questions, and possibly some context. To validate the realism of our formulation, we ask humans to play the role of a meta-answerer. With just a small snippet of text around an answer, humans can outperform the machine reader, improving recall. Similarly, a simple machine meta-answerer outperforms the environment, improving both precision and recall on the Natural Questions dataset. The system relies on joint training of answer scoring and the selection of conditioning information.

Multi-choice Machine Reading Comprehension (MRC) as a challenge requires model to select the most appropriate answer from a set of candidates given passage and question. Most of the existing researches focus on the modeling of the task datasets witho
ut explicitly referring to external fine-grained knowledge sources, which is supposed to greatly make up the deficiency of the given passage. Thus we propose a novel reference-based knowledge enhancement model called Reference Knowledgeable Network (RekNet), which refines critical information from the passage and quote explicit knowledge in necessity. In detail, RekNet refines fine-grained critical information and defines it as Reference Span, then quotes explicit knowledge quadruples by the co-occurrence information of Reference Span and candidates. The proposed RekNet is evaluated on three multi-choice MRC benchmarks: RACE, DREAM and Cosmos QA, which shows consistent and remarkable performance improvement with observable statistical significance level over strong baselines.
In conversational machine reading, systems need to interpret natural language rules, answer high-level questions such as May I qualify for VA health care benefits?, and ask follow-up clarification questions whose answer is necessary to answer the ori
ginal question. However, existing works assume the rule text is provided for each user question, which neglects the essential retrieval step in real scenarios. In this work, we propose and investigate an open-retrieval setting of conversational machine reading. In the open-retrieval setting, the relevant rule texts are unknown so that a system needs to retrieve question-relevant evidence from a collection of rule texts, and answer users high-level questions according to multiple retrieved rule texts in a conversational manner. We propose MUDERN, a Multi-passage Discourse-aware Entailment Reasoning Network which extracts conditions in the rule texts through discourse segmentation, conducts multi-passage entailment reasoning to answer user questions directly, or asks clarification follow-up questions to inquiry more information. On our created OR-ShARC dataset, MUDERN achieves the state-of-the-art performance, outperforming existing single-passage conversational machine reading models as well as a new multi-passage conversational machine reading baseline by a large margin. In addition, we conduct in-depth analyses to provide new insights into this new setting and our model.
When making an online purchase, it becomes important for the customer to read the product reviews carefully and make a decision based on that. However, reviews can be lengthy, may contain repeated, or sometimes irrelevant information that does not he
lp in decision making. In this paper, we introduce MRCBert, a novel unsupervised method to generate summaries from product reviews. We leverage Machine Reading Comprehension, i.e. MRC, approach to extract relevant opinions and generate both rating-wise and aspect-wise summaries from reviews. Through MRCBert we show that we can obtain reasonable performance using existing models and transfer learning, which can be useful for learning under limited or low resource scenarios. We demonstrated our results on reviews of a product from the Electronics category in the Amazon Reviews dataset. Our approach is unsupervised as it does not require any domain-specific dataset, such as the product review dataset, for training or fine-tuning. Instead, we have used SQuAD v1.1 dataset only to fine-tune BERT for the MRC task. Since MRCBert does not require a task-specific dataset, it can be easily adapted and used in other domains.
Conversational machine reading (CMR) requires machines to communicate with humans through multi-turn interactions between two salient dialogue states of decision making and question generation processes. In open CMR settings, as the more realistic sc
enario, the retrieved background knowledge would be noisy, which results in severe challenges in the information transmission. Existing studies commonly train independent or pipeline systems for the two subtasks. However, those methods are trivial by using hard-label decisions to activate question generation, which eventually hinders the model performance. In this work, we propose an effective gating strategy by smoothing the two dialogue states in only one decoder and bridge decision making and question generation to provide a richer dialogue state reference. Experiments on the OR-ShARC dataset show the effectiveness of our method, which achieves new state-of-the-art results.
Achieving human-level performance on some of Machine Reading Comprehension (MRC) datasets is no longer challenging with the help of powerful Pre-trained Language Models (PLMs). However, the internal mechanism of these artifacts still remains unclear,
placing an obstacle for further understanding these models. This paper focuses on conducting a series of analytical experiments to examine the relations between the multi-head self-attention and the final performance, trying to analyze the potential explainability in PLM-based MRC models. We perform quantitative analyses on SQuAD (English) and CMRC 2018 (Chinese), two span-extraction MRC datasets, on top of BERT, ALBERT, and ELECTRA in various aspects. We discover that {em passage-to-question} and {em passage understanding} attentions are the most important ones, showing strong correlations to the final performance than other parts. Through visualizations and case studies, we also observe several general findings on the attention maps, which could be helpful to understand how these models solve the questions.
