چکیده

Answering questions that ask about temporal information involves several forms of inference. In order to develop question answering capabilities that benefit from temporal inference, we believe that a large corpus of questions and answers that are discovered based on temporal information should be available. This paper describes our methodology for creating AnswerTime-Bank, a large corpus of questions and answers on which Question Answering systems can operate using complex temporal inference.

Temporally Annotated Extended Logic Programs

Extended logic programs (ELPs) are a set of logic rules with strong negation  allowed in the bodies or head of the rules and weak negation ~ allowed in the bodies of the rules. ELPs enable for various forms of reasoning that cannot be achieved by definite logic programs. Answer Set Programming provides a widely acceptable semantics for ELPs. However, ELPs do not provide information regarding t...

Inference and Learning of Boolean Networks using Answer Set Programming

A Boolean Network is a compact mathematical representation of biological systems widely used in bioinformatics. However, in practice, experiments are usually not sufficient to infer a Boolean network which represents the whole biological system. Previous works relied on inferring and learning techniques to complete those models, or to learn new networks satisfying experimental properties repres...

Question Answering Based on Temporal Inference

Answering questions that ask about temporal information involves several forms of inference. First, relations between events and temporal expressions need to be inferred, either in the question or in the answer. Second, semantic inference between events, entities and their definitions needs to be performed. Sometimes, semantic inference employs aspectual information to relate events expressed b...
