## Ideas Mova took (1)

From the ideas ledger: an idea tried, kept or queued, or measured with no gain, and what it gave.

- **kept** — Keep events in non-real modes out of «what happened» answers: negated frames (neg), conditional ones (cond) and the unrealised complements proposed in white-2016-universal-decompositional-semantics-universal-dependencies I1 do not answer «What did the lion… *([TORQUE: A Reading Comprehension Dataset of Temporal…](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/ning-2020-torque-reading-comprehension-dataset-temporal/) · an «if» clause is irrealis for the student (PRAG_OFF=cond-irrealis): 7702/2200→7704/2206 (35db4e3f7))*

## Papers

1. **[Evaluating Models' Local Decision Boundaries via Contrast Sets](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/gardner-2020-evaluating-models-local-decision-boundaries/)** *(2020)* `measured` Standard test sets come from the same distribution as the training data, so a dataset with systematic gaps or annotation artifacts lets models score well with shallow heuristics.
2. **[TORQUE: A Reading Comprehension Dataset of Temporal Ordering Questions](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/ning-2020-torque-reading-comprehension-dataset-temporal/)** *(2020)* `1 idea kept` TORQUE asks temporal relations as reading-comprehension questions instead of labelling event pairs with Allen-style relations.
3. **[DROP: A Reading Comprehension Benchmark Requiring Discrete Reasoning Over Paragraphs](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/dua-2019-drop-reading-comprehension-benchmark-requiring/)** *(2019)* DROP has 96,567 questions on about 7,000 Wikipedia passages rich in numbers (American-football game summaries, history), written adversarially against a reading model so that answering needs discrete operations over several places in the text.
4. **[Quoref: A Reading Comprehension Dataset with Questions Requiring Coreferential Reasoning](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/dasigi-2019-quoref-reading-comprehension-dataset-questions/)** *(2019)* Quoref has over 24K span-answer questions on 4.7K Wikipedia paragraphs (about 40% film plot summaries, which mention many characters), written by crowd workers so that answering needs linking two mentions of one entity.
