MT-DNN achieved state-of-the-art performance on GLUE and other benchmarks when it was introduced.
“This is the method used by the 'MT-DNN' (Liu et al., 2015, 2019b), which achieved state-of-the-art performance on GLUE and other benchmarks when it was introduced.”
From Exploring the Limits of Transfer Learning with a Unified Text-to-Text Transformer (2019) · cites this paper as Liu et al., 2015
The available passages are bibliographic metadata for the 2015 paper (pp. 912–921), not its results. Searches for GLUE, MT-DNN, and state-of-the-art benchmark performance returned no passage addressing the claim, so our copy cannot verify it. (LLM, conf=0.75)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
