Reinforced Mnemonic Reader for Machine Comprehension
In this paper, we introduce the Reinforced Mnemonic Reader for machine comprehension (MC) task, which aims to answer a query about a given context document. We propose several novel mechanisms that address critical problems in MC that are not adequately solved by previous works, such as enhancing the capacity of encoder, modeling long-term dependencies of contexts, refining the predicted answer span, and directly optimizing the evaluation metric. Extensive experiments on TriviaQA and Stanford Question Answering Dataset (SQuAD) show that our model achieves state-of-the-art results.
