An Open Domain Question Answering Method Based on Document Categorization, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Abolhassani, Hassan (Supervisor)
Abstract
One of the new paradigms in information retrieval is to develop textual Question-Answering systems. Question-Answering (QA) is an advanced IR process at which for a natural language question, the answer is extracted and issued in natural language. The QA systems are divided into two general groups: Open-Domain QA and Restricted-Domain QA.
In this research field, a number of different models and methods are developed in which a document collection is used to retrieve candidate answers and then different methods are deployed to detect and eliminate irrelevant ones from answer set. Most of these methods decide based on expected semantic answer type, which is determined using pre-defined...
