Hybrid Question Answering Sample Clauses

Hybrid Question Answering. A natural idea of combining available information sources to improve question answering has been explored for a long time. A very detailed overview of these approaches can be found in a recent book by Hannah Xxxx, Xx¨xxx Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx [19]. Researchers have used various additional resources, such as WordNet [137], Wikipedia9 and structured knowledge bases along with textual document col- lections. WordNet lexical database was among the first resources, that were adapted by QA community for such tasks as query expansion and definition extractions [97, 146]. Next, Wikipedia, which can be characterized as an un- 9xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxx.xxx structured and semi-structured (infoboxes) knowledge base, quickly became a valuable resource for answer extraction and verification [7, 43]. Developers of the Aranea QA [127] system noticed that structured knowledge bases are very effective in answering a significant portion of relatively simple questions. They designed a set of regular expressions for popular questions that can be efficiently answered from a knowledge base and fall back to regular text-based methods for the rest of the questions. Knowledge bases can also be used as an external source of structured data for some lower level text tasks, such as language modeling [8]. Another great example of a hybrid question answering system is IBM Wat- son, which is arguably the most important and well-known QA system ever developed so far. It was designed to play the Jeopardy TV show10. The sys- tem combined multiple different approaches, including text-based, relation extraction and knowledge base modules, each of which generated candidate answers, which were then pooled together for ranking and answer selection. The full architecture of the system is well described in [72] or in the full special issue of the IBM Journal of Research and Development [73]. Yo- daQA [21] is an open source implementation of the ideas behind the IBM Xxxxxx system. On the other hand, knowledge base question answering systems can benefit from lexical resources. After the information is encoded into RDF triples in a knowledge base, we need to be able to map it back to natural language in order to answer user questions. An idea of extended knowledge graphs [65, 229] is to augment the RDF triples with keywords, which could be ex- tracted from the context of the triple in a text, e.g., from a relation extraction model. These keywords encode a context of a triple and can be used to mat...
