CLEF 2020的ARQMath实验室考虑了在社区问答网站（Math Stack Exchange）上发布的答案中找到新数学问题的答案的问题。这些问题是从测试集合中发布的，每个都包含文本和至少一个公式。我们预计这将是一项具有挑战性的任务，因为可能需要数学和文本来找到相关的答案帖子。虽然已经提出了几个模型的文本问题回答，数学问题回答是在早期的发展阶段。为了推进数学感知搜索和数学问答系统，我们将创建一个标准的测试集合，供研究人员用于基准测试。ARQMath还将包括一个公式检索子任务：来自问题帖子的单个公式用于定位早期答案帖子中的公式，相关性由基于原始问题创建的叙述字段确定。我们将使用这些叙述字段来探索公式搜索的各种信息需求（例如，替代符号、在特定领域中的应用或定义）。
The ARQMath Lab at CLEF 2020 considers the problem of finding answers to new mathematical questions among posted answers on a community question answering site (Math Stack Exchange). Queries are question postings held out from the test collection, each containing both text and at least one formula. We expect this to be a challenging task, as both math and text may be needed to find relevant answer posts. While several models have been proposed for text question answering, math question answering is in an earlier stage of development. To advance math-aware search and mathematical question answering systems, we will create a standard test collection for researchers to use for benchmarking. ARQMath will also include a formula retrieval sub-task: individual formulas from question posts are used to locate formulas in earlier answer posts, with relevance determined by narrative fields created based on the original question. We will use these narrative fields to explore diverse information needs for formula search (e.g., alternative notation, applications in specific fields or definition).
