Research

QANTA investigates question answering at the intersection of natural language processing, human–computer interaction, and machine learning. Our work spans dataset creation, system building, and competition design.

Areas

Projects

Individual research efforts with papers, code, and data — from adversarial question writing to graph-based QA systems.

Data & Code

Quiz bowl corpora, specialized QA benchmarks, starter systems, and download links in one place.
