Abstract

Techniques for predicting an answer to a question using a machine learning model are described. In some examples, the model predicts one or more answers to the question by: predicting at least two answers to the question using a first component of the question-answer model from a set of passages, generating, using a second component of the question-answer model, at least one question for each of the predicted at least two answers, and performing roundtrip predictions until each generated question only has one answer.
