Abstract. In knowledge bases, the open world assumption and the ability to express variables may lead to an answer redundancy problem. This problem occurs when the returned answers...
This paper describes the use of machine learning to improve the performance of natural language question answering systems. We present a model for improving story comprehension th...
In any system for Natural Language Processing having a dictionary, the question arises as to whiclh entries are included in it. In this paper, I address the subquestion as to whet...
Previous work on Natural Language Processing for Information Retrieval has shown the inadequateness of semantic and syntactic structures for both document retrieval and categoriza...
