Textual Entailment as Syntactic Graph Distance: a rule based and a SVM based approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we define a measure for textual entailment recognition based on the graph matching theory applied to syntactic graphs. We describe the experiments carried out to estimate measure’s parameters with SVM and we report the results obtained on the Textual Entailment Challenge development and testing set.

Automatic Evaluation of Summary Using Textual Entailment
This paper describes about an automatic technique of evaluating summary. The standard and popular summary evaluation techniques or tools are not fully automatic; they all need some manual process. Using textual entailment (TE) the generated summary can be evaluated automatically without any manual evaluation/process. The TE system is the composition of lexical entailment module, lexical distanc...
متن کاملA Study of Textual Entailment
In this paper we study a graph-based approach to the task of Recognizing Textual Entailment between a Text and a Hypothesis. The approach takes into account the full lexico-syntactic context of both the Text and Hypothesis and is based on the concept of subsumption. It starts with mapping the Text and Hypothesis on to graph structures that have nodes representing concepts and edges representing...
متن کاملTree Edit Distance as a Baseline Approach for Paraphrase Representation
Finding an adequate paraphrase representation formalism is a challenging issue in Natural Language Processing. In this paper, we analyse the performance of Tree Edit Distance as a paraphrase representation baseline. Our experiments using Edit Distance Textual Entailment Suite show that, as Tree Edit Distance consists of a purely syntactic approach, paraphrase alternations not based on structura...
متن کاملRecognizing Textual Entailment with Tree Edit Distance: Application to Question Answering and Information Extraction
This thesis addresses the problem of Recognizing Textual Entailment (i.e. recognizing that the meaning of a text entails the meaning of another text) using a Tree Edit Distance algorithm between the syntactic trees of the two texts. A key aspect of the approach is the estimation of the cost for the editing operations (i.e. Insertion, Deletion, Substitution) among words. Our aim is to compare th...
متن کاملRecognizing Textual Entailment Using Description Logic and Semantic Relatedness
Recognizing Textual Entailment using Description Logic and Semantic Relatedness Reda Siblini, Ph.D. Concordia University, 2014 Textual entailment (TE) is a relation that holds between two pieces of text where one reading the first piece can conclude that the second is most likely true. Accurate approaches for textual entailment can be beneficial to various natural language processing (NLP) appl...
