Evidence-based fact checking aims to verify the truthfulness of a claim against evidence extracted from textual sources. Learning a representation that effectively captures relations between a claim and evidence can be challenging. Recent state-of-the-art approaches have developed increasingly sophisticated models based on graph structures. We present a simple model that can be trained on sequence structures. Our model enables inter-sentence attentions at different levels and can benefit from joint training. Results on a large-scale dataset for Fact Extraction and VERification (FEVER) show that our model outperforms the graph-based approaches and yields 1.09 in label accuracy and FEVER score, respectively, over the best published model.
