Zusammenfassung:Multiple-choice reading comprehension is a challenging task in natural language processing, which aims to select the correct answer from a set of candidate options when given passage and question. Previous approaches usually focus only on word vector interactions and ignore the importance of sentence semantics for reading when modeling the relationship between passage and question. However, reading is a process that includes complex interactions of various knowledge such as vocabulary, syntax and semantics. Interactions based on word vectors alone do not effectively capture the relationship between passage and question. In this work, we propose the Sentence Semantic Interaction Network (SSIN), which models the relationship among passage, question, and answer options based on sentence semantics. The experimental results show that superior results are achieved on both the RACE and MCTest datasets, confirming that the interaction based on sentence semantic vectors can effectively improve the performance of the model reading comprehension.
