We address the task of explaining the effects of perturbations in procedural text, an important test of process comprehension. Consider a passage describing a rabbits life-cycle: humans can easily explain the effect on the rabbit population if a female rabbit becomes ill -- i.e., the female rabbit would not become pregnant, and as a result not have babies leading to a decrease in rabbit population. We present QUARTET, a system that constructs such explanations from paragraphs, by modeling the explanation task as a multitask learning problem. QUARTET provides better explanations (based on the sentences in the procedural text) compared to several strong baselines on a recent process comprehension benchmark. We also present a surprising secondary effect: our model also achieves a new SOTA with a 7% absolute F1 improvement on a downstream QA task. This illustrates that good explanations do not have to come at the expense of end task performance.

We introduce WIQA, the first large-scale dataset of What if... questions over procedural text. WIQA contains three parts: a collection of paragraphs each describing a process, e.g., beach erosion; a set of crowdsourced influence graphs for each parag
raph, describing how one change affects another; and a large (40k) collection of What if...? multiple-choice questions derived from the graphs. For example, given a paragraph about beach erosion, would stormy weather result in more or less erosion (or have no effect)? The task is to answer the questions, given their associated paragraph. WIQA contains three kinds of questions: perturbations to steps mentioned in the paragraph; external (out-of-paragraph) perturbations requiring commonsense knowledge; and irrelevant (no effect) perturbations. We find that state-of-the-art models achieve 73.8% accuracy, well below the human performance of 96.3%. We analyze the challenges, in particular tracking chains of influences, and present the dataset as an open challenge to the community.
Neural models have achieved significant results on the text-to-SQL task, in which most current work assumes all the input questions are legal and generates a SQL query for any input. However, in the real scenario, users can input any text that may no
t be able to be answered by a SQL query. In this work, we propose TriageSQL, the first cross-domain text-to-SQL question intention classification benchmark that requires models to distinguish four types of unanswerable questions from answerable questions. The baseline RoBERTa model achieves a 60% F1 score on the test set, demonstrating the need for further improvement on this task. Our dataset is available at https://github.com/chatc/TriageSQL.
Neural networks have recently achieved human-level performance on various challenging natural language processing (NLP) tasks, but it is notoriously difficult to understand why a neural network produced a particular prediction. In this paper, we leve
rage the text-to-text framework proposed by Raffel et al.(2019) to train language models to output a natural text explanation alongside their prediction. Crucially, this requires no modifications to the loss function or training and decoding procedures -- we simply train the model to output the explanation after generating the (natural text) prediction. We show that this approach not only obtains state-of-the-art results on explainability benchmarks, but also permits learning from a limited set of labeled explanations and transferring rationalization abilities across datasets. To facilitate reproducibility and future work, we release our code use to train the models.
Neural predictive models have achieved remarkable performance improvements in various natural language processing tasks. However, most neural predictive models suffer from the lack of explainability of predictions, limiting their practical utility. T
his paper proposes a neural predictive approach to make a prediction and generate its corresponding explanation simultaneously. It leverages the knowledge entailed in explanations as an additional distillation signal for more efficient learning. We conduct a preliminary study on Chinese medical multiple-choice question answering, English natural language inference, and commonsense question answering tasks. The experimental results show that the proposed approach can generate reasonable explanations for its predictions even with a small-scale training corpus. The proposed method also achieves improved prediction accuracy on three datasets, which indicates that making predictions can benefit from generating the explanation in the decision process.
We introduce Tanbih, a news aggregator with intelligent analysis tools to help readers understanding whats behind a news story. Our system displays news grouped into events and generates media profiles that show the general factuality of reporting, t
he degree of propagandistic content, hyper-partisanship, leading political ideology, general frame of reporting, and stance with respect to various claims and topics of a news outlet. In addition, we automatically analyse each article to detect whether it is propagandistic and to determine its stance with respect to a number of controversial topics.
