Exemplification is a process by which writers explain or clarify a concept by


providing an example. While common in all forms of writing, exemplification is
particularly useful in the task of long-form question answering, where a
complicated answer can be made more understandable through simple examples.
We propose to treat exemplification as a retrieval problem in which a partially
written answer is used to query a large set of human-written examples extracted
from a corpus. Our approach allows a reliable ranking type of automatic metrics
that correlates well with human evaluation. A human evaluation shows that our
model’s retrieved examples are more relevant than examples generated from a
state of-the-art When an author introduces a complicated concept, they commonly
follow it up with a concrete example to help clarify their intended meaning. This
process, known as exemplification, occurs in diverse forms, including hypothetical
examples, personal anecdotes, and analogies (Clouse, 2013). Exemplification
