METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PARSING QUESTION IN KNOWLEDGE BASE

摘要

A method for parsing a question in a knowledge base includes: receiving a question entered by a user; performing phrase detection on the question to determine candidate phrases; mapping the candidate phrases to resource items in the knowledge base; further determining values of observed predicates and possible question parse spaces; performing uncertain inference on each proposition set in the possible question parse spaces according to the values of the observed predicates and values of hidden predicates, and calculating confidence; acquiring a combination of true propositions in a proposition set whose confidence satisfies a preset condition; generating a formal query statement according to the combination of true propositions.
