Abstract In the Chinese multi-paragraph reading comprehension task, three properties should be taken into account: the sparsity of evidence paragraph, the diversity of Chinese semantic and the validity of answer snippet. To solve these problems, a Chinese multi-paragraph reading comprehension model, CMPReader, is proposed. In CMReader, data augmentation is exploited to learn the paragraphs with no answer. Word level encoding and Chinese word tag are added to enrich the Chinese semantic representation, and the features of answer snippet are employed by the answer verifier model to choose the right answer. CMPReader is applied to the CIPS-SOGOU factoid question answer dataset, and the results show that the average of exact match score and F1 score are increased.
