Answering Natural Language Questions with Intui3.
Corina Dima · CLEF (Working Notes) · 2014
Intui3 is one of the participating systems at the fourth evaluation campaign on multilingual question answering over linked data, QALD4. The system accepts as input a question formulated in natural language (in English), and uses syntactic and semantic information to construct its interpretation with respect to a given database of RDF triples (in this case DBpedia 3.9). The interpretation is mapped to the corresponding SPARQL query, which is then run against a SPARQL endpoint to retrieve the answers to the initial question. Intui3 competed in the challenge called Task 1: Multilingual question answering over linked data, which offered 200 training questions and 50 test questions in 7 different languages. It obtained an F-measure of 0.24 by providing a correct answer to 10 of the test questions and a partial answer to 4 of them.
