    Abstract: Example embodiments relate to expanding textual content using transfer learning and iterative inference. An example method includes receiving, by a computing device, a snippet of text that contains one or more terms expressed using succinct representations. The method also includes performing an iterative expansion, by the computing device, using the snippet of text as an input snippet of text. The iterative expansion includes receiving, by the computing device, the input snippet of text. The iterative expansion also includes determining, by the computing device using a machine-learned model, a set of intermediate expanded snippets. Each of the intermediate expanded snippets has an associated score based on the machine-learned model. Additionally, the iterative expansion includes: (i) repeating, by the computing device, the iterative expansion using a first intermediate expanded snippet or a second intermediate expanded snippet as the input snippet or (ii) outputting the input snippet as a final expanded snippet.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for generating answers to answer-seeking queries. One of the methods includes receiving a query having multiple terms. The query is classified as an answer-seeking query of a particular question type, and one or more answer types associated with the particular question type are obtained. Search results satisfying the query are obtained, and a respective score is computed for each of one or more passages of text occurring in each document identified by the search results, wherein the score for each passage of text is based on how many of the one or more answer types match the passage of text. A presentation that includes information from one or more of the passages of text selected based on the respective score is provided in response to the query.
