NIPS 2017 Human-Computer Question Answering Competition

[jord...@gmail.com]

At NIPS 2017, we (researchers at UMD, University of Colorado,
Stanford, and AI2) will be organizing our second Human-Computer
Question Answering Competition. If you're working on question
answering, knowledge bases, information retrieval, or classification,
this task is a fun way to test how well your approaches do against
skilled humans.

We have more information available at our webpage:
http://hcqa.boydgraber.org

Including a brief video that explains both our task (quiz bowl) and
how our server works.

We hope that you'll consider participating and submit a system!
System submissions are due October 15, and the final competition with
the human team will take place at NIPS 2017.

Thanks!

Jordan Boyd-Graber (on behalf of the organizers)
