Why EM and F1 are lower than official results? #1

Hi, galsang. Nice work! But I want to know why EM and F1 are lower than official results. Have you analyzed it? Thanks!

galsang commented 6 years ago

I don't know the exact reason, but there are some possible candidates. A possible one is the different initialization of the weights, which can be a big impact in real.

Hi, galsang. I think so.
I prefer to Pytorch, and I have been doing things on reading comprehension. Thank you for your reply!

I suspect that the paper results are based on GloVe 300d. And the lower results are from GloVe 100d. Just a guess.
