TLDR
The Stanford Question Answering Dataset (SQuAD) as mentioned in this paper is a reading comprehension dataset consisting of 100,000+ questions posed by crowdworkers on a set of Wikipedia articles, where the answer to each question is a segment of text from the corresponding reading passage.Abstract:
We present the Stanford Question Answering Dataset (SQuAD), a new reading comprehension dataset consisting of 100,000+ questions posed by crowdworkers on a set of Wikipedia articles, where the answer to each question is a segment of text from the corresponding reading passage. We analyze the dataset to understand the types of reasoning required to answer the questions, leaning heavily on dependency and constituency trees. We build a strong logistic regression model, which achieves an F1 score of 51.0%, a significant improvement over a simple baseline (20%). However, human performance (86.8%) is much higher, indicating that the dataset presents a good challenge problem for future research.

BERT: Pre-training of Deep Bidirectional Transformers for Language Understanding
TL;DR: A new language representation model, BERT, designed to pre-train deep bidirectional representations from unlabeled text by jointly conditioning on both left and right context in all layers, which can be fine-tuned with just one additional output layer to create state-of-the-art models for a wide range of tasks.

RoBERTa: A Robustly Optimized BERT Pretraining Approach
Yinhan Liu,Myle Ott,Naman Goyal,Jingfei Du,Mandar Joshi,Danqi Chen,Omer Levy,Michael Lewis,Luke Zettlemoyer,Veselin Stoyanov +9 more
TL;DR: It is found that BERT was significantly undertrained, and can match or exceed the performance of every model published after it, and the best model achieves state-of-the-art results on GLUE, RACE and SQuAD.

Deep contextualized word representations
Matthew E. Peters,Mark Neumann,Mohit Iyyer,Matt Gardner,Christopher Clark,Kenton Lee,Luke Zettlemoyer +6 more
TL;DR: This paper introduced a new type of deep contextualized word representation that models both complex characteristics of word use (e.g., syntax and semantics), and how these uses vary across linguistic contexts (i.e., to model polysemy).

ImageNet: A large-scale hierarchical image database
TL;DR: A new database called “ImageNet” is introduced, a large-scale ontology of images built upon the backbone of the WordNet structure, much larger in scale and diversity and much more accurate than the current image datasets.

Building a large annotated corpus of English: the penn treebank
TL;DR: As a result of this grant, the researchers have now published on CDROM a corpus of over 4 million words of running text annotated with part-of- speech (POS) tags, which includes a fully hand-parsed version of the classic Brown corpus.
