SCORING ATTRIBUTES IN A DEEP QUESTION ANSWERING SYSTEM BASED ON SYNTACTIC OR SEMANTIC GUIDELINES

摘要

Systems and computer program products to, responsive to receiving a case by a deep question answering (deep QA) system, identify, in a corpus of information, a first variable for which a value was not specified in the case, compute an importance score for the first variable based on a concept in the corpus, wherein the concept is associated with the first variable, and upon determining that the importance score exceeds an importance threshold, determine that specifying a value for the first variable increases a confidence score of a response returned by the deep QA system beyond a confidence threshold.
