Question answering (QA) systems have reached human-level accuracy; however, these systems are not robust enough and are vulnerable to adversarial examples. Recently, adversarial attacks have been widely investigated in text classification. However, there have been few research efforts on this topic in QA. In this article, we have modified the attack algorithms widely used in text classification to fit those algorithms for QA systems. We have evaluated the impact of various attack methods on QA systems at character, word, and sentence levels. Furthermore, we have developed a new framework, named RobustQA, as the first open-source toolkit for investigating textual adversarial attacks in QA systems. RobustQA consists of seven modules: Tokenizer, Victim Model, Goals, Metrics, Attacker, Attack Selector, and Evaluator. It currently supports six different attack algorithms. Furthermore, the framework simplifies the development of new attack algorithms in QA. The source code and documentation of RobustQA are available at https://github.com/mirbostani/RobustQA.

Modèles génératif et discriminant en analyse syntaxique : expériences sur le corpus arboré de Paris 7 (Generative and discriminative models in parsing: experiments on the Paris 7 Treebank)

Nous présentons une architecture pour l’analyse syntaxique en deux étapes. Dans un premier temps un analyseur syntagmatique construit, pour chaque phrase, une liste d’analyses qui sont converties en arbres de dépendances. Ces arbres sont ensuite réévalués par un réordonnanceur discriminant. Cette méthode permet de prendre en compte des informations auxquelles l’analyseur n’a pas accès, en particulier des annotations fonctionnelles. Nous validons notre approche par une évaluation sur le corpus arboré de Paris 7. La seconde étape permet d’améliorer significativement la qualité des analyses retournées, quelle que soit la métrique utilisée.
