In this task, you will be presented with a context from an academic paper and you have to write an answerable question based on the context. Your questions can be extractive, abstractive, or yes-no questions.

Throughout all our experiments, we used BERT-Base BIBREF2 to provide the state-of-the-art contextualized modeling of the input text.

Semantic Retrieval: We treated the neural semantic retrieval at both the paragraph and sentence level as binary classification problems with models' parameters updated by minimizing binary cross entropy loss.
How do they model the neural retrieval modules?

On the same architecture, our RCRN outperforms ablative baselines BiLSTM by INLINEFORM2 and 3L-BiLSTM by INLINEFORM3 on average across 16 datasets.
By how much do they outperform BiLSTMs in Sentiment Analysis?

We use GraphParser without paraphrases as our baseline. This gives an idea about the impact of using paraphrases We compare our paraphrasing models with monolingual machine translation based model for paraphrase generation BIBREF24 , BIBREF36 . In particular, we use Moses BIBREF37 to train a monolingual phrase-based MT system on the Paralex corpus. Finally, we use Moses decoder to generate 10-best distinct paraphrases for the test questions.

What are the baselines?
