HoVer: A Dataset for Many-Hop Fact Extraction And Claim Verification

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

We introduce HoVer (HOppy VERification), a dataset for many-hop evidence extraction and fact verification. It challenges models to extract facts from several Wikipedia articles that are relevant to a claim and classify whether the claim is Supported or Not-Supported by the facts. In HoVer, the claims require evidence to be extracted from as many as four English Wikipedia articles and embody reasoning graphs of diverse shapes. Moreover, most of the 3/4-hop claims are written in multiple sentences, which adds to the complexity of understanding long-range dependency relations such as coreference. We show that the performance of an existing state-of-the-art semantic-matching model degrades significantly on our dataset as the number of reasoning hops increases, hence demonstrating the necessity of many-hop reasoning to achieve strong results. We hope that the introduction of this challenging dataset and the accompanying evaluation task will encourage research in many-hop fact retrieval and information verification. We make the HoVer dataset publicly available at https://hover-nlp.github.io


From Note-Level to Chord-Level Neural Network Models for Voice Separation in Symbolic Music

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Music is often experienced as a progression of concurrent streams of notes, or voices. The degree to which this happens depends on the position along a voice-leading continuum, ranging from monophonic, to homophonic, to polyphonic, which complicates the design of automatic voice separation models. We address this continuum by defining voice separation as the task of decomposing music into streams that exhibit both a high degree of external perceptual separation from the other streams and a high degree of internal perceptual consistency. The proposed voice separation task allows for a voice to diverge to multiple voices and also for multiple voices to converge to the same voice. Equipped with this flexible task definition, we manually annotated a corpus of popular music and used it to train neural networks that assign notes to voices either separately for each note in a chord (note-level), or jointly to all notes in a chord (chord-level). The trained neural models greedily assign notes to voices in a left to right traversal of the input chord sequence, using a diverse set of perceptually informed input features. When evaluated on the extraction of consecutive within voice note pairs, both models surpass a strong baseline based on an iterative application of an envelope extraction function, with the chord-level model consistently edging out the note-level model. The two models are also shown to outperform previous approaches on separating the voices in Bach music.


The State of AI Ethics Report (October 2020)

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

The 2nd edition of the Montreal AI Ethics Institute's The State of AI Ethics captures the most relevant developments in the field of AI Ethics since July 2020. This report aims to help anyone, from machine learning experts to human rights activists and policymakers, quickly digest and understand the ever-changing developments in the field. Through research and article summaries, as well as expert commentary, this report distills the research and reporting surrounding various domains related to the ethics of AI, including: AI and society, bias and algorithmic justice, disinformation, humans and AI, labor impacts, privacy, risk, and future of AI ethics. In addition, The State of AI Ethics includes exclusive content written by world-class AI Ethics experts from universities, research institutes, consulting firms, and governments. These experts include: Danit Gal (Tech Advisor, United Nations), Amba Kak (Director of Global Policy and Programs, NYU's AI Now Institute), Rumman Chowdhury (Global Lead for Responsible AI, Accenture), Brent Barron (Director of Strategic Projects and Knowledge Management, CIFAR), Adam Murray (U.S. Diplomat working on tech policy, Chair of the OECD Network on AI), Thomas Kochan (Professor, MIT Sloan School of Management), and Katya Klinova (AI and Economy Program Lead, Partnership on AI). This report should be used not only as a point of reference and insight on the latest thinking in the field of AI Ethics, but should also be used as a tool for introspection as we aim to foster a more nuanced conversation regarding the impacts of AI on the world.


Microsoft is granted exclusive rights to use OpenAI's GPT-3

#artificialintelligence

Microsoft and OpenAI's close relationship has taken another leap forward with the former gaining exclusive GPT-3 access. GPT-3 has been the talk of the AI town in recent months. OpenAI's innovation can help to create convincing articles and the company once deemed it too dangerous to release in a world where misinformation and fake news is already problematic. OpenAI never made GPT-3 publicly available but instead provided access to a limited number of trusted researchers. Microsoft announced today that it now has the exclusive rights to leverage GPT-3's "technical innovations to develop and deliver advanced AI solutions for our customers, as well as create new solutions that harness the amazing power of advanced natural language generation."

'Game of Thrones with parkour': how will Netflix adapt Assassin's Creed?

The Guardian

Few video games have endured like Assassin's Creed. Twelve different versions have been released since the game was introduced in 2007, each of them more or less clinging to the same highly enjoyable formula. Like spending the final hour of any pursuit genuinely confused about why an alien has come out of nowhere to instruct you to murder everyone with a sort of glowing death apple? Then Assassin's Creed is for you. So the news that Netflix has just commissioned a live-action Assassin's Creed series should be cause for celebration.


[D] Machine Learning - WAYR (What Are You Reading) - Week 98

#artificialintelligence

It'd be an overestimation from my side, but their architecture is kinda ingenious and we are trying to do it in our startup, using LM like BERT with position features to embed fields in the documents... It's more like semantically searching a document graph for a query label to detect... Off-the-shelf LMs don't have any mechanism to provide geometry information (that coming from my experience from using sentence-transformer). But, I think it can be done. I am moving in some direction at least. PS: Having tried GNN experiments, they didn't do well either for a highly imbalanced datasets where background nodes overshadow all the major labels.
