JOSN: JAVA oriented question-answering system combining semantic web and natural language processing techniques

摘要

Question-Answering (QA) system is improved version of search engines or can be stated as specific Search engines because search engines deliver data in the form of URLs whereas Question-Answering system produces direct answer to the query asked. That's why more focus has been put on developing better Question Answering systems that could respond to large variety of user query. Semantic Web Technology has aided to the development of such systems from past many years because it could add meaning to the query being asked. Such systems are more efficient than the systems developed in other languages. In this paper, we have proposed a QA system of JAVA Programming Language, where knowledge will be represented in the form of Ontology and based on relations derived from domain knowledge to obtained final answer. Information present in Ontology is represented in the form of tables to feed in knowledge base. It combines the techniques of Natural Language Processing and Semantic Web.
