• Title: Asking the Right Questions in Low Resource Template Extraction
• Authors: Nils Holzenberger and Yunmo Chen and Benjamin Van Durme
• Abstract summary: We ask whether end users of TE systems can design these questions, and whether it is beneficial to involve an NLP practitioner in the process. We propose a novel model to perform TE with prompts, and find it benefits from questions over other styles of prompts.

• Abstract: Information Extraction (IE) researchers are mapping tasks to Question Answering (QA) in order to leverage existing large QA resources, and thereby improve data efficiency. Especially in template extraction (TE), mapping an ontology to a set of questions can be more time-efficient than collecting labeled examples. We ask whether end users of TE systems can design these questions, and whether it is beneficial to involve an NLP practitioner in the process. We compare questions to other ways of phrasing natural language prompts for TE. We propose a novel model to perform TE with prompts, and find it benefits from questions over other styles of prompts, and that they do not require an NLP background to author.

• Crafting Interpretable Embeddings by Asking LLMs Questions [89.49960984640363]
  Large language models (LLMs) have rapidly improved text embeddings for a growing array of natural-language processing tasks. We introduce question-answering embeddings (QA-Emb), embeddings where each feature represents an answer to a yes/no question asked to an LLM. We use QA-Emb to flexibly generate interpretable models for predicting fMRI voxel responses to language stimuli.

  Long-form question answering (LFQA) poses a challenge as it involves generating detailed answers in the form of paragraphs. We propose an LFQA model with iterative Planning, Retrieval, and Generation. We find that our model outperforms the state-of-the-art models on various textual and factual metrics for the LFQA task.

We introduce a new Document VQA dataset, named TAT-DQA, which consists of 3,067 document pages and 16,558 question-answer pairs. We develop a novel model named MHST that takes into account the information in multi-modalities, including text, layout and visual image, to intelligently address different types of questions.

  Question Answering (QA) is one of the most important natural language processing (NLP) tasks. It aims using NLP technologies to generate a corresponding answer to a given question based on the massive unstructured corpus. In this paper, we investigate influential QA datasets that have been released in the era of deep learning.

  We present a dataset of 5,049 questions over 1,585 Natural Language Processing papers. Each question is written by an NLP practitioner who read only the title and abstract of the corresponding paper, and the question seeks information present in the full text. We find that existing models that do well on other QA tasks do not perform well on answering these questions, underperforming humans by at least 27 F1 points when answering them from entire papers.

  In open question answering (QA), the answer to a question is produced by retrieving and then analyzing documents that might contain answers to the question. Most open QA systems have considered only retrieving information from unstructured text. We present a new large-scale dataset Open Table-and-Text Question Answering (OTT-QA) to evaluate performance on this task.

  We aim to produce self-explanatory questions that focus on main document topics and are answerable with variable length passages as appropriate. Our model shows SOTA performance of SQ generation on the NQ dataset (20.1 BLEU-4). We further apply our model on out-of-domain news articles, evaluating with a QA system due to the lack of gold questions and demonstrate that our model produces better SQs for news articles -- with further confirmation via a human evaluation.
