CLEF 2007 - Budapest1 Measuring the contribution of Word Sense Disambiguation for QA Proposers: UBC: Agirre, Lopez de Lacalle, Otegi, Rigau, FBK: Magnini UNED: Peñas UVA & Irion: Vossen Idea: Provide English documents and queries (LA94 GH95) with automatically annotated word senses (WordNet) Participants explore how the word senses (plus the semantic information in wordnets) can be used in QA

CLEF 2007 - Budapest2 Word senses can help QA We will provide state-of-the-art WSD tags All senses with confidence scores (error propag.) The participant can choose how to use it (e.g. nouns only) Also provide synonyms/translations for senses Once words have been disambiguated One can expand to synonyms and broader terms One can use the lexical-semantic relations in wordnets Passage filtering WSD can help improving the recall Answer ranking WSD can help focus semantic processing

CLEF 2007 - Budapest3 QA WSD exercise Add the WSD tagged collection/queries to the multilingual Q/A task Same topics LA94 GH95 (Not wikipedia) Just offer an additional resource in the main Q/A task One additional run to the multilingual Q/A task 2 runs, with and without WSD Relevant tasks: X2ENG and ENG2ENG (for QA WSD participants only) Extra resources needed: Relevance assessment of the additional runs

5 QA WSD pilot exercise Details: Wikipedia won’t be disambiguated Only a subset of the main QA will be comparable In main QA, multiple answers are required In addition, to normal evaluation, evaluate first reply not coming from wikipedia

CLEF 2007 - Budapest6 WSD 4 AVE In addition to the word senses provide: Synonyms / translations for those senses Need to send two runs (one more than other part.): With and without WSD Tasks: X2ENG and ENG2ENG (control) Additional resources: Provide word sense tags to the snippets returned by QA results (automatic mapping to original doc. Collection)
7
CLEF 2007 - Budapest7 CLIR WSD pilot exercise Add the WSD tagged collection/topics as an additional “language” in the ad-hoc task Same topics Same document collection In addition to the word senses we provide: Synonyms / translations for those senses Need to send two runs (one more than other participants): With and without WSD Tasks: X2ENG and ENG2ENG (control) Extra resources needed: Relevance assessment of the additional runs
