Abstract

The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that can determine an answer to a query based on matching probabilities for combinations of respective candidate answers. For example, the disclosed systems can utilize a gated-self attention mechanism (GSAM) to interpret inputs that include contextual information, a query, and candidate answers. The disclosed systems can also utilize a memory network in tandem with the GSAM to form a gated self-attention memory network (GSAMN) to refine outputs or predictions over multiple reasoning hops. Further, the disclosed systems can utilize transfer learning of the GSAM/GSAMN from an initial training dataset to a target training dataset.
