An Inference Mechanism for Question Answering*
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work describes an inference mechanism applied to AliQAn Question Answering System for Spanish in open domain. AliQAn is based fundamentally on the use of syntactic patterns to identify the possible answers. An inference mechanism is applied to the questions set of economic type. In this way, our system improves the accuracy of this question type from 33% to 57%.

A Spoken Question Answering System Based on Conditional Knowledge
A conditional schema is a graph-based structure which is able to represent conditional knowledge. This structure was introduced in [11]. The inference mechanism corresponding to the conditional schema representations was developed in [12]. In this paper we propose a question answering system that can represent and process conditional knowledge using these mechanisms. The structure of such a sys...
متن کاملAsk, Attend and Answer: Exploring Question-Guided Spatial Attention for Visual Question Answering
The problem of Visual Question Answering (VQA) requires joint image and language understanding to answer a question about a given photograph. Recent approaches have applied deep image captioning methods based on recurrent LSTM networks to this problem, but have failed to model spatial inference. In this paper, we propose a memory network with spatial attention for the VQA task. Memory networks ...
متن کاملNeural Variational Inference for Text Processing
Recent advances in neural variational inference have spawned a renaissance in deep latent variable models. In this paper we introduce a generic variational inference framework for generative and conditional models of text. While traditional variational methods derive an analytic approximation for the intractable distributions over latent variables, here we construct an inference network conditi...
متن کاملAn Answer Bank for Temporal Inference
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 qu...
متن کاملTrue Knowledge: Open-Domain Question Answering Using Structured Knowledge and Inference
80 AI MAGAZINE True Knowledge is an open-domain question-answering platform. Behind the platform is a large and growing knowledge base of the world’s knowledge in structured form combining commonsense, factual, and lexical knowledge. Natural language questions are answered by first translating the question into a language-independent query and then executing the query using both knowledge in th...
