نویسنده
چکیده
The QALab task requires to solve the history problems of the Center Exam. Although it seems like a factoid based questionanswering problems, we suggest a simple, but fundamentally important, keyword based technique. Regardless of employed methods, the way how to handle the keyword distribution is the fundamental issue to solve the problems. Our system is domainindependent, language-independent, and unsupervised where no training is required. These features would allow direct applications of the system to other types of problems in the future.
