TAC 2008 CLEAR RTE System Report: Facet-based Entailment
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the CLEAR team’s submission to the 2008 Text Analysis Conference under the Recognizing Textual Entailment track. The system breaks text fragments down into fine-grained semantic facets and performs entailment recognition on these. We show that, in the relevant subset of the data, we can achieve 90% accuracy in pinpointing the specific facet of a hypothesis that is not entailed. We also provide an error analysis based on the facets of hypotheses most likely to have led to their misclassification.

TALP at TAC 2008: A Semantic Approach to Recognizing Textual Entailment
This paper describes our experiments on Textual Entailment in the context of the Fourth Recognising Textual Entailment (RTE-4) Evaluation Challenge at TAC 2008 contest. Our system uses a Machine Learning approach with AdaBoost to deal with the RTE challenge. We perform a lexical, syntactic, and semantic analysis of the entailment pairs. From this information we compute a set of semantic-based d...

This paper provides a brief description of the system for recognizing textual entailment (RTE) Language Computer Corporation (LCC) used in the 2008 TAC RTE-4 Evaluation. Our RTE-4 work follows our previous work (Hickl and Bensley, 2007; Bensley and Hickl, 2008; Hickl, 2008) in using a pipeline of lightweight, largely statistical systems for commitment extraction, lexical alignment, and entailme...

This paper describes the systems of THU QUANTA in Text Analysis Conference (TAC) 2008. We participated in the Question Answering (QA) track, and the Recognizing Textual Entailment (RTE) track. For question answering track, we enhanced the traditional question answering system by sentiment lexicon based opinion analysis. The rigid list questions are divided into two categories based on their ans...
متن کاملA Belief Revision Approach to Textual Entailment Recognition
An artificial believer has to recognize textual entailment to categorize beliefs. We describe our system – the Fuzzy Believer system – and its application to the TAC/RTE three-way task.
متن کاملUsing Ontology Alignment for the TAC RTE Challenge
In this paper we present the system that we used to participate to the TAC RTE challenge. The system relies on acquiring and aligning ontologies to recognize textual entailment. It automatically acquires an ontology representing the text fragment and another one representing the hypothesis, and then aligns the created ontologies. By learning from available textual entailment data, the system ca...
