SAGAN: An approach to Semantic Textual Similarity based on Textual Entailment
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we report the results obtained in the Semantic Textual Similarity (STS) task, with a system primarily developed for textual entailment. Our results are quite promising, getting a run ranked 39 in the official results with overall Pearson, and ranking 29 with the Mean metric.

This paper describes the Sagan system in the context of the Fifth Pascal Recognizing Textual Entailment (RTE-5) Evaluation Challenge and the new Textual Entailment Search Pilot Task. The system employs a Support Vector Machine classifier with a set of 32 features, which includes lexical and semantic similarity for both two-way and three-way classification tasks. Additionally, we show an approac...

This paper describes the Sagan system in the context of the Sixth Pascal Recognizing Textual Entailment (RTE6) and the RTE task within a Corpus. The system employs a Support Vector Machine classifier which uses semantic similarity metrics to sentence level using only WordNet as source of knowledge, and co-reference analysis. Additionally, we proposed a baseline to the Novelty Detection subtask.
متن کاملSAGAN: A Machine Translation Approach for Cross-Lingual Textual Entailment
This paper describes our participation in the task denominated Cross-Lingual Textual Entailment (CLTE) for content synchronization. We represent an approach to CLTE using machine translation to tackle the problem of multilinguality. Our system resides on machine learning and in the use of WordNet as semantic source knowledge. Results are very promising always achieving results above mean score.

In this paper we present a report of the two different runs submitted to the task 8 of Semeval 2012 for the evaluation of Cross-lingual Textual Entailment in the framework of Content Synchronization. Both approaches are based on textual similarity, and the entailment judgment (bidirectional, forward, backward or no entailment) is given based on a set of decision rules. The first approach uses t...
متن کاملThe Meaning Factory: Formal Semantics for Recognizing Textual Entailment and Determining Semantic Similarity
Shared Task 1 of SemEval-2014 comprised two subtasks on the same dataset of sentence pairs: recognizing textual entailment and determining textual similarity. We used an existing system based on formal semantics and logical inference to participate in the first subtask, reaching an accuracy of 82%, ranking in the top 5 of more than twenty participating systems. For determining semantic similari...
