The SciQA benchmark for scientific question answering presents a challenging task for next-generation question-answering systems, where standard large language models often fall short. In this seminar, we will analyze the performance of language models on this benchmark, exploring both prompting and fine-tuning techniques to enhance their adaptability to the SciQA task. Our findings demonstrate that intelligent few-shot selection in prompting and targeted fine-tuning can lead to excellent results on the SciQA benchmark. We will also discuss valuable insights gained, common error categories encountered, and their implications for optimizing large language models for question answering over knowledge graphs.
Maven of the Month
We are also inviting top experts in AI and Knowledge Technologies to discuss major socio-technological topics with an audience that comprises both members of the Knowledge Media Institute, as well as the wider staff at The Open University. Differently from our seminar series, these events follow a Q&A format.
