Title:

How can Africa and North America partner to promote the goals of the Foundation

Theme:

Reliability of Information

Type of session:

Presentation

Abstract:

Many tasks such as question answering and reading comprehension rely on information extracted from unreliable sources. These systems would thus benefit from knowing whether a statement from an unreliable source is correct. We present experiments on the Fact Extraction and VERification (FEVER) dataset, which involves selecting sentences from Wikipedia and predicting whether a claim is supported by those sentences, refuted, or there is not enough information. We describe results across three phases: the development of a fact-checking system, the creation of adversarial examples, and the improvement of the system in handling adversarial examples.
