Look at the First Sentence: Position Bias in Question Answering [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Many extractive question answering models are trained to predict start and end positions of answers. The choice of predicting answers as positions is mainly due to its simplicity and effectiveness. In this study, we hypothesize that when the distribution of the answer positions is highly skewed in the training set (e.g., answers lie only in the k-th ...

Last but not Least: Additional Positional Effects on Citation and Readership in arXiv [PDF]

open access: yesJASIST 61, 2381-2388 (Dec 2010), 2010
We continue investigation of the effect of position in announcements of newly received articles, a single day artifact, with citations received over the course of ensuing years. Earlier work [arXiv:0907.4740, arXiv:0805.0307] focused on the "visibility" effect for positions near the beginnings of announcements, and on the "self-promotion" effect ...

Population and species neighbor identity impact trait–trait relationships and plant performance

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We evaluated how populations and species identity influence plant performance and trait outcomes in mixtures, and assessed trait variation among populations of two forb species native to the western United States (Dieteria canescens and Heterotheca villosa) following three interaction treatments (single‐population monoculture, two‐population mixture ...

Error Model of Radio Fingerprint and PDR Fusion Indoor Localization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Multi-source fusion positioning is one of the technical frameworks for obtaining sufficient indoor positioning accuracy. In order to evaluate the effect of multi-source fusion positioning, it is necessary to establish a fusion error model. In this paper, we first use the least squares method to fuse the radio fingerprint and the PDR positioning, and ...

Effects of chronic browsing on life‐history traits of an irruptive large herbivore population

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
This study aimed to determine the relationship between diet quality, body mass, and size (hind foot length), and female reproduction and sought to identify the mechanism by which high density under severe food limitations is maintained. Our results demonstrated that sika deer introduced to Nakanoshima Island have maintained high densities through high ...

Positive and Negative Effects of Parental Conflicts on Children’s Condition and Behaviour

open access: yesJournal of European Psychology Students, 2014
Previous research focused on the negative consequences of parental conflict behaviours. In contrast, this review is about the positive and negative effects that constructive and destructive parental conflict behaviours have on a child’s condition and ...

Transformer Language Models without Positional Encodings Still Learn Positional Information [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Causal transformer language models (LMs), such as GPT-3, typically require some form of positional encoding, such as positional embeddings. However, we show that LMs without any explicit positional encoding are still competitive with standard models, and that this phenomenon is robust across different datasets, model sizes, and sequence lengths ...
