Question-in-context rewriting

CANARD Rewriting Models

The repo is used to maintain scripts for training models for the question-in-context rewriting task introduced in

Ahmed Elgohary, Denis Peskov, Jordan Boyd-Graber. 2019. Can you unpack that? Learning to rewrite questions-in-context. In Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing.

The CANARD dataset can be downloaded from the dataset page.

Pointer-generator sequence-to-sequence model

To run the model:

1. Install Spacy.
2. Clone and install OpenNMT-py.
3. Download GloVE 840B.300d embeddings.
4. Run ./preprocess.sh to generate sequence-to-sequence format of the dataset.
5. Run ./ONMT_Pipeline_GloVE.sh to train and evaluate the model.

A trained model can be downloaded using this link. The model achieves a 51.54 BLEU score on the dev set and 50.00 on the test set.
