A simple system for detecting non-entailment
نویسنده
چکیده
In order for a text to entail a hypothesis, the text usually must mention all of the information in the hypothesis. We use this observation as a basis for a simple system for detecting non-entailment. Unlike many previous lexically-based systems, we do not measure the degree of overlap or similarity, and we do no machine learning. This simple system performs well on the Recognizing Textual Entailment (RTE) evaluation.

There are relatively few entailment heuristics that exploit the directional nature of the entailment relation. Cross-Lingual Text Entailment (CLTE), besides introducing the extra dimension of cross-linguality, also requires to determine the exact direction of the entailment relation, to provide content synchronization (Negri et al., 2012). Our system uses simple dictionary lookup combined with ...
متن کاملEntailment of Non-structural Subtype Constraints
Entailment of subtype constraints was introduced for constraint simplification in subtype inference systems. Designing an efficient algorithm for subtype entailment turned out to be surprisingly difficult. The situation was clarified by Rehof and Henglein who proved entailment of structural subtype constraints to be coNP-complete for simple types and PSPACE-complete for recursive types. For ent...

In this paper, we propose a labeled-alignment-based RTE method to approach the simplified Chinese textual entailment track in the NTCIR-10 RITE-2 task. The labeled alignment, compared with the normal alignment, employs negative links to explicitly mark the contradictory expressions between the two sentences to justify the non-entailment pairs. Therefore, the corresponding alignment-based RTE me...
متن کاملLabeled Alignment for Recognizing Textual Entailment
Recognizing Textual Entailment (RTE) is to predict whether one text fragment can semantically infer another, which is required across multiple applications of natural language processing. The conventional alignment scheme, which is developed for machine translation, only marks the paraphrases and hyponyms to justify the entailment pairs, while provides less support for the non-entailment ones. ...
متن کاملDetecting Cross-Lingual Semantic Divergence for Neural Machine Translation
Parallel corpora are often not as parallel as one might assume: non-literal translations and noisy translations abound, even in curated corpora routinely used for training and evaluation. We use a cross-lingual textual entailment system to distinguish sentence pairs that are parallel in meaning from those that are not, and show that filtering out divergent examples from training improves transl...
