SCIMAT: Science and Mathematics DatasetNeeraj Kollepara, Snehith Kumar Chatakonda, Pawan Kumar
In this work, we announce a comprehensive well curated and opensource dataset with millions of samples for pre-college and college level problems in mathematicsand science. A preliminary set of results using transformer architecture with character to character encoding is shown. The dataset identifies some challenging problem and invites research on better architecture search

Deep Attentive Ranking Networks for Learning to Order SentencesPawan Kumar, Dhanajit Brahma, Harish Karnick et al.
We present an attention-based ranking framework for learning to order sentences given a paragraph. Our framework is built on a bidirectional sentence encoder and a self-attention based transformer network to obtain an input order invariant representation of paragraphs. Moreover, it allows seamless training using a variety of ranking based loss functions, such as pointwise, pairwise, and listwise ranking. We apply our framework on two tasks: Sentence Ordering and Order Discrimination. Our framework outperforms various state-of-the-art methods on these tasks on a variety of evaluation metrics. We also show that it achieves better results when using pairwise and listwise ranking losses, rather than the pointwise ranking loss, which suggests that incorporating relative positions of two or more sentences in the loss function contributes to better learning.
