"text": "The question rewriting (QR) task has been introduced as a mitigation method for conversational question answering (CQA). CQA asks a machine to answer a question based on the provided passage and a multi-turn dialogue (Reddy et al., 2019; Choi et al., 2018) , which poses an additional challenge to comprehend the dialogue history. To ease the challenge, QR aims to teach a model to paraphrase a question into a self-contained format using its dialogue history (Elgohary et al., 2019a; Anantha et al., 2021a) . Except for Kim et al. (2021) , however, no one has provided evidence that QR is effective for CQA in practice. Existing works on QR often (i) depend on the existence of a QR dataset for every target CQA dataset, and (ii) focus more on generating high-quality rewrites than improving CQA performance, making them unsatisfactory for the justification of QR.", |

While many of the existing works on QR put more effort toward generating high-quality rewrites (Lin et al., 2020; Vakulenko et al., 2021) , Kim et al.

We see that our RL approach yields 0.9-1.6 F1 improvement over the pipeline setting regardless of the dataset combinations and performs almost as well as the end-to-end setting. This partially supports our expectation that RL lifts the CQA performance. However, we find it almost impossible to bring significant improvement over the end-to-end baseline despite our extensive trials. One reason why we cannot provide as much improvement as reported in Kim et al. (2021) would be related to the inputs of the QA model. Their EXCORD feeds the original questions together with the rewritten questions, whereas we only use the rewritten questions. It is also noteworthy that their results are consistently lower than ours, even lower than our end-to-end settings.", |

Indeed, on average, 89.6% of the questions are the same as the original questions after PPO training, although this value is 34.5% in the pipeline settings. We also discover a significant correlation between the performance and how much the QR models copy the original question (the correlation coefficient is 0.984 for CoQA and 0.967 for QuAC) and the edit distance from the original question (the correlation coefficient is -0.996 for CoQA and -0.989 for QuAC).", |
