Abstract

We propose an enhanced QA model with combination of heterogeneous answer acquisition methods. Our QA system is based on web encyclopedia in Korean. We investigated characteristic features of the encyclopedia and incorporate them in our answer acquisition methods. We defined three different types of answer extraction methods: learning-based, pattern-based, and traditional statistical methods. By empirical experiments, we obtained 59% improvement on MRR as well as 2.3 times speedy response.
