چکیده

VRep is a system designed for SemEval 2016 Task 1 Semantic Textual Similarity (STS) and Task 2 Interpretable Semantic Textual Similarity (iSTS). STS quantifies the semantic equivalence between two snippets of text, and iSTS provides a reason why those snippets of text are similar. VRep makes extensive use of WordNet for both STS, where the Vector relatedness measure is used, and for iSTS, where features are extracted to create a learned rule-based classifier. This paper outlines the VRep algorithm, provides results from the 2016 SemEval competition, and analyzes the performance contributions of the system components.

UWB at SemEval-2016 Task 2: Interpretable Semantic Textual Similarity with Distributional Semantics for Chunks

We introduce a system focused on solving SemEval 2016 Task 2 – Interpretable Semantic Textual Similarity. The system explores machine learning and rule-based approaches to the task. We focus on machine learning and experiment with a wide variety of machine learning algorithms as well as with several types of features. The core of our system consists in exploiting distributional semantics to com...

We present the system developed at FBK for the SemEval 2016 Shared Task 2 ”Interpretable Semantic Textual Similarity” as well as the results of the submitted runs. We use a single neural network classification model for predicting the alignment at chunk level, the relation type of the alignment and the similarity scores. Our best run was ranked as first in one the subtracks (i.e. raw input data...

In this paper we describe our system (DTSim) submitted at SemEval-2016 Task 2: Interpretable Semantic Textual Similarity (iSTS). We participated in both gold chunks category (texts chunked by human experts and provided by the task organizers) and system chunks category (participants had to automatically chunk the input texts). We developed a Conditional Random Fields based chunker and applied r...

Rev at SemEval-2016 Task 2: Aligning Chunks by Lexical, Part of Speech and Semantic Equivalence

We present the description of our submission to SemEval-2016 Task 2, for the sub-task of aligning pre-annotated chunks between sentence pairs and providing similarity and relatedness labels for the alignment. The objective of the task is to provide interpretable semantic textual similarity assessments by adding an explanatory layer to aligned chunks. We analysed the provided datasets, consideri...

We present in this paper our system developed for SemEval 2015 Shared Task 2 (2a English Semantic Textual Similarity, STS, and 2c Interpretable Similarity) and the results of the submitted runs. For the English STS subtask, we used regression models combining a wide array of features including semantic similarity scores obtained from various methods. One of our runs achieved weighted mean corre...
