A review of Validating Contradiction of Online Co-Mention Pattern Checking

Roberto Ranieri, Gala Urguhart · 2013

Detecting contradictive statements is a foundational task for text understanding applications such as textual entailment. In this paper, we state the problem of the shortage of specific background knowledge in contradiction detection. Moreover, in order to tackle this problem, a novel contradiction detecting approach based on the distribution of the query composed of critical mismatch is proposed. By using the method to measure the availability of mismatch conjunction phrases (MCPs), the two target statements can be implicitly obtained for identifying contradictions.
