Use of Default Reasoning for Disambiguation Under Question Answering

نویسنده

  • Boris A. Galitsky
چکیده

We develop the default logic for pragmatic analysis of natural language queries. Ambiguous sentences are considered so that each set of meanings is assigned an extension of default system. The approach is applied to natural language question answering, where even a correct semantic representation needs to be modified in accordance to the set of default rules to better match a knowledge domain.

Application of default reasoning to semantic processing under question - answering

We build the natural language question-answering system, where the query representation formula is subject to transformation in accordance to the set of default rules. This transformation is required to disambiguate entities in a vertical domain, where they usually have a principle meaning and a set of foreign ones. Default reasoning is discussed to be applicable to a variety of semantic proces...

Some Experiments in Question Answering with a Disambiguated Document Collection

This paper describes our approach to the Question Answering Word Sense Disambiguation task. This task consists in carrying out Question Answering over a disambiguated document collection. In our approach, disambiguated documents are used to improve the accuracy of the retrieval phase. In order to do this, we added a WordNet-expanded index to the document collection. The expanded index contains ...

QA with a Disambiguated Document Collection

This report describes our approach to the Question Answering Word Sense Disambiguation task. In our approach, disambiguated documents are used to improve the retrieval phase: this has been implemented by adding a WordNet expanded index to the document collection. This index contains synonyms, hypernyms and holonyms of the document words. Question words are searched for in both the expanded Word...

NLEL at CLEF 2009 Robust WSD Task

This report describes our approach to the Robust Word Sense Disambiguation task. We applied the same index expansion technique used in 2008 for the Question Answering WSD task, with the addition of pseudo (blind) relevance feedback. In our approach, a WordNet expanded index is generated from the disambiguated document collection. This index contains synonyms, hypernyms and holonyms of the disam...

Machine Reading as a Process of Partial Question-Answering

This paper explores the close relationship between question answering and machine reading, and how the active use of reasoning to answer (and in the process, disambiguate) questions can also be applied to reading declarative texts, where a substantial proportion of the text’s contents is already known to (represented in) the system. In question answering, a question may be ambiguous, and it may...
