Multiple-choice question answering (MCQA) requires the model to select the correct answer from a set of candidate options when given a passage and a question. Previous research has achieved promising results with the assistance of Pre-trained Language Models(PrLMs). However, it has been observed tha…
Mitigating linguistic bias and attaining modal equilibrium in Visual Question Answering (VQA) tasks constitute a pivotal concern. Previous work has mainly focused on data augmentation or a uni-modal approach, which is insufficient to fully utilize bi-modal information. In this work, we propose a new…
Cross-domain few-shot Relation Extraction (RE) aims to transfer knowledge from a source domain to a different target domain to address low-resource problems.Previous work utilized label descriptions and entity information to leverage the knowledge of the source domain.However, these models are prone…
Predicting unseen relations that cannot be observed during the training phase is a challenging task in relation extraction. Previous works have made progress by matching the semantics between input instances and label descriptions. However, fine-grained matching often requires laborious manual annot…
Long-context capabilities are essential for large language models (LLMs) to tackle complex and long-input tasks. Despite numerous efforts made to optimize LLMs for long contexts, challenges persist in robustly processing long inputs. In this paper, we introduce GraphReader, a graph-based agent syste…
The advent of Large Language Models (LLMs) has drastically enhanced dialogue systems. However, comprehensively evaluating the dialogue abilities of LLMs remains a challenge. Previous benchmarks have primarily focused on single-turn dialogues or provided coarse-grained and incomplete assessments of m…
Cross-domain Relation Extraction aims to transfer knowledge from a source domain to a different target domain to address low-resource challenges. However, the semantic gap caused by data bias between domains is a major challenge, especially in few-shot scenarios. Previous work has mainly focused on…
Machine Reading Comprehension (MRC) is a challenging task in natural language understanding, especially multi-hop question answering (QA) in long texts. One of the challenges in multi-hop QA requires models to produce interpretable answers based on evidence that is selected from a given long text. B…
Multiple-choice question answering (MCQA) is a challenging task that requires selecting the correct answer from a set of options based on a given question. There is a trend to use pre-trained encoder-decoder models to solve MCQA. Previous works concentrate on the decoder and adopt the generated text…
