Multi-choice Machine Reading Comprehension (MMRC) aims to select the correct answer from a set of options based on a given passage and question. Due to task specific of MMRC, it is no-trivial to transfer knowledge from other MRC tasks such as SQuAD, Dream. In this paper, we simply reconstruct multi-choice to single-choice by training a binary classification to distinguish whether a certain answer is correct. Then select the option with the highest confidence score. We construct our model upon ALBERT-xxlarge model and estimate it on the RACE dataset. During training, We adopt AutoML strategy to tune better parameters. Experimental results show that the single-choice is better than multi-choice. In addition, by transferring knowledge from other kinds of MRC tasks, our model achieves the new state of the art results in both single and ensemble settings.
