In graphic-design circles, form-follows-function is reconfigured as form-follows-content. If content is the source of form, always preceding it and imbuing it with meaning, form without content (as if that were... See more

- Leveraging Document and Corpus Structure-  Scaling to Multiple Languages]

[Curator's note: there are numerous other technical challenges  addressed with alternative prescriptions throughout the paper. These highlights are narrative-centric, and I invite you to review the paper if you are a keen technologist looking for answers to the following:- Zero- and Few-Shot Learning - Response Generation- Arithmetic, Logical,...

If all of these research ambitions were to come to fruition, the resulting system would be a very early version of the system that we envisioned in the introduction. That is, the resulting system would be able to provide domain expert answers to a wide range of information needs in a way that neither modern IR systems, question answering systems,... See more

We envision using the same corpus model as a multi-task learner for multiple IR tasks. To this end, once a corpus model has been trained, it can of course be used for the most classical of all IR tasks – document retrieval. However, by leveraging recent advances in multi-task learning, such a model can very likely be applied to a diverse range of... See more
