UPC-USMBA at SemEval-2017 Task 3: Combining multiple approaches for CQA for Arabic
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a description of the participation of the UPC-USMBA team in the SemEval 2017 Task 3, subtask D, Arabic. Our approach for facing the task is based on a performance of a set of atomic classifiers (lexical string-based, vectorial, and rulebased) whose results are later combined. Our primary submission has obtained good results: 2nd (from 3 participants) in MAP, and 1st in in accuracy.

QU-IR at SemEval 2016 Task 3: Learning to Rank on Arabic Community Question Answering Forums with Word Embedding
Resorting to community question answering (CQA) websites for finding answers has gained momentum in the past decade with the explosive rate at which social media has been proliferating. With many questions left unanswered on those websites, automatic and smart question answering systems have seen light. One of the main objectives of such systems is to harness the plethora of existing answered q...

This paper describes our participation in SemEval-2017 Task 3 on Community Question Answering (cQA). The Question Similarity subtask (B) aims to rank a set of related questions retrieved by a search engine according to their similarity to the original question. We adapted our featurebased system for Recognizing Question Entailment (RQE) to the question similarity task. Tested on cQA-B-2016 test...

This paper describes the results of the participation of The University of Melbourne in the community question-answering (CQA) task of SemEval 2016 (Task 3-B). We obtained a MAP score of 70.2% on the test set, by combining three classifiers: a NaiveBayes classifier and a support vector machine (SVM) each trained over lexical similarity features, and a convolutional neural network (CNN). The CNN...
متن کاملSemEval-2015 Task 3: Answer Selection in Community Question Answering
Community Question Answering (cQA) provides new interesting research directions to the traditional Question Answering (QA) field, e.g., the exploitation of the interaction between users and the structure of related posts. In this context, we organized SemEval2015 Task 3 on Answer Selection in cQA, which included two subtasks: (a) classifying answers as good, bad, or potentially relevant with re...
متن کاملSwissAlps at SemEval-2017 Task 3: Attention-based Convolutional Neural Network for Community Question Answering
In this paper we propose a system for reranking answers for a given question. Our method builds on a siamese CNN architecture which is extended by two attention mechanisms. The approach was evaluated on the datasets of the SemEval-2017 competition for Community Question Answering (cQA), where it achieved 7th place obtaining a MAP score of 86.24 points on the Question-Comment Similarity subtask.
