Question answering and database querying: Bridging the gap with generalized quantification
نویسنده
چکیده
Even though Questions Answering and Database Querying have very different goals and frameworks, collaboration between the two fields could be mutually beneficial. However, the different assumptions in each field makes such collaboration difficult. In this paper, we introduce a query language with generalized quantifiers (QLGQ) and show how it could be used to help bridge the gap between the two fields.

Using Generalized Language Model for Question Matching
Question and answering service is one of the popular services in the World Wide Web. The main goal of these services is to finding the best answer for user's input question as quick as possible. In order to achieve this aim, most of these use new techniques foe question matching. . We have a lot of question and answering services in Persian web, so it seems that developing a question matching m...
متن کاملQuestion Answering, Semantic Search and Data Service Querying
Question Answering (QA) systems have profoundly evolved since their inception as natural language interfaces to databases. QA technology has indeed become state-of-the-art on open-domain, unstructured information retrieval and more recently touched the Semantic Web and the problem of querying structured data (e.g. RDF triples) on the Web. A natural new challenge is QA over data services, suppor...
متن کاملIntelligent Query Answering with Virtual Mining and Materialized Views
Querying a database is a common task for traditional database systems. Producing answers effectively depends largely on users' knowledge about the query language and the database schema. In order to improve effectiveness and convenience of querying databases, we design a multi-agent system working cooperatively in an intelligent way to analyze user's request and revise the query with virtual mi...
متن کاملUsing Lexico-Semantic Information for Query Expansion in Passage Retrieval for Question Answering
In this paper we investigate the use of several types of lexico-semantic information for query expansion in the passage retrieval component of our QA system. We have used four corpus-based methods to acquire semantically related words, and we have used one hand-built resource. We evaluate our techniques on the Dutch CLEF QA track.1 In our experiments expansions that try to bridge the terminolog...
متن کاملOn the Interaction of Existential Rules and Equality Constraints in Ontology Querying
Ontological query processing is an exciting research topic in database theory, knowledge representation, and logic programming. In many cases, ontological constraints are expressed over an extensional database by extending traditional Datalog rules to allow existential quantification and equality atoms in the head. The unrestricted use of these features causes undecidability of query answering ...
