Cooperative Query Answering Using Multiple Layered Databases

How can a real-estate agent respond to inquiries quickly and intelligently? Thètrick' could be using a simple table to brieey outline the general information and a complete book to reference the details. Such a method can be generalized to the construction of a multiple layered database (MLDB), a useful database organization technique for cooperative query answering, database browsing, query op...

Investigating Embedded Question Reuse in Question Answering

The investigation presented in this paper is a novel method in question answering (QA) that enables a QA system to gain performance through reuse of information in the answer to one question to answer another related question. Our analysis shows that a pair of question in a general open domain QA can have embedding relation through their mentions of noun phrase expressions. We present methods f...

I Intelligent Query Answering

One way to make query answering system (QAS) intelligent is to assume a hierarchical structure of its attributes. Such systems have been investigated by Cuppens & Demolombe (1988), Gal & Minker (1988), and Gaasterland et al. (1992), and they are called cooperative. Any attribute value listed in a query, submitted to cooperative QAS, is seen as a node of the tree representing that attribute. If ...

Huan Sun 1 Research Overview

The recent boom of various intelligent knowledge discovery and retrieval systems (e.g., IBM Watson, Google Now, Apple Siri, Microsoft Cortana, and Amazon Echo) unfolds a new era in question answering, decision making, recommendation, problem solving and business intelligence. Such systems directly interact with humans in natural language, process vast amounts of diversified forms of big data, a...
