Traditional web search forces the developers to leave their working environments and look for solutions in the web browsers. It often does not consider the context of their programming problems. The context-switching between the web browser…

The proliferation of online debate platforms and social media has led to an unprecedented volume of argumentative content on controversial topics from multiple perspectives. While this wealth of perspectives offers opportunities for…

Community-based Question and Answering (CQA) platforms are nowadays enlightening over a billion people with crowdsourced knowledge. A key design issue in CQA platforms is how to find the potential answerers and to provide the askers timely…

Millions of users visit Stack Overflow regularly to ask community for answers to their programming questions. However, like many other platforms, Stack Overflow consistently struggles with low user retention and declining levels of user…

Knowledge graphs (KGs) have been widely used for question answering (QA) applications, especially the entity based QA. However, searching an-swers from an entire large-scale knowledge graph is very time-consuming and it is hard to meet the…

Information seeking users often pose questions with false presuppositions, especially when asking about unfamiliar topics. Most existing question answering (QA) datasets, in contrast, assume all questions have well defined answers. We…

We introduce REALTIME QA, a dynamic question answering (QA) platform that announces questions and evaluates systems on a regular basis (weekly in this version). REALTIME QA inquires about the current world, and QA systems need to answer…

Question answering over knowledge base (KB-QA) has recently become a popular research topic in NLP. One popular way to solve the KB-QA problem is to make use of a pipeline of several NLP modules, including entity discovery and linking (EDL)…

In today's digital world, seeking answers to health questions on the Internet is a common practice. However, existing question answering (QA) systems often rely on using pre-selected and annotated evidence documents, thus making them…

Question Answering (QA) is a natural language processing task that aims at obtaining relevant answers to user questions. While some progress has been made in this area, biomedical questions are still a challenge to most QA approaches, due…

Traditional data systems require specialized technical skills where users need to understand the data organization and write precise queries to access data. Therefore, novice users who lack technical expertise face hurdles in perusing and…

Quality-Diversity (QD) has demonstrated potential in discovering collections of diverse solutions to optimisation problems. Originally designed for deterministic environments, QD has been extended to noisy, stochastic, or uncertain domains…

Currently, a growing number of health consumers are asking health-related questions online, at any time and from anywhere, which effectively lowers the cost of health care. The most common approach is using online health expert…

Generating high-quality question-answer pairs for specialized technical domains remains challenging, with existing approaches facing a tradeoff between leveraging expert examples and achieving topical diversity. We present ExpertGenQA, a…

Event Extraction (EE) is an essential information extraction task that aims to extract event-related information from unstructured texts. The paradigm of this task has shifted from conventional classification-based methods to more…

The problem of answering questions using knowledge from pre-trained language models (LMs) and knowledge graphs (KGs) presents two challenges: given a QA context (question and answer choice), methods need to (i) identify relevant knowledge…

For their attractiveness, comprehensiveness and dynamic coverage of relevant topics, community-based question answering sites such as Stack Overflow heavily rely on the engagement of their communities: Questions on new technologies,…

Many learning problems involve multiple patterns and varying degrees of uncertainty dependent on the covariates. Advances in Deep Learning (DL) have addressed these issues by learning highly nonlinear input-output dependencies. However,…

This paper introduces the UCFE: User-Centric Financial Expertise benchmark, an innovative framework designed to evaluate the ability of large language models (LLMs) to handle complex real-world financial tasks. UCFE benchmark adopts a…

Reliable question answering requires identifying not only whether an answer is correct, but also which available knowledge the prediction depends on. In realistic LLM-based QA, this knowledge may come from context, retrieval, decomposition,…
