Introduction In the era of WWW, people need to search and get information fast online or offline which make people rely on Question Answering System (QAS). One of the common and traditionally use QAS is Frequently Ask Question site which contains common and straight forward answer. Currently, QAS have emerge as powerful platform using various techniques such as information retrieval, Knowledge Base, Natural Language Processing and Hybrid Based which enable user to retrieve exact answer for questions posed in natural language using either pre-structured database or a collection of natural language documents [1,4]. The demand of QAS increases day by day since it delivers short, precise and question-specific answer [10]. QAS with using knowledge base paradigm are better in Restricted- domain QA system since it ability to focus [12].

However, the challenge in ontology engineering is automatic learning, i.e., the there is still a lack of fully automatic approach from a text corpus or dataset of various topics to form ontology using machine learning techniques. In this paper, two topic modeling algorithms are explored, namely LSI & SVD and Mr.LDA for learning topic ontology. The objective is to determine the statistical relationship between document and terms to build a topic ontology and ontology graph with minimum human intervention. Experimental analysis on building a topic ontology and semantic retrieving corresponding topic ontology for the user‟s query demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

  • A Comparative Analysis for English and Ukrainian Texts Processing Based on Semantics and Syntax Approach
    A Comparative Analysis for English and Ukrainian Texts Processing Based on Semantics and Syntax Approach Victoria Vysotska, Svitlana Holoshchuk and Roman Holoshchuk Lviv Polytechnic National University, S. Bandera Street, 12, Lviv, 79013, Ukraine Abstract The article deals with the application of generating grammars in linguistic modelling. Analysis of sentence syntax modelling is used to automate studying and synthesising natural language texts. The complex research of automatic processing of English and Ukrainian texts considering the semantics and syntax of natural languages is conducted. A comparative linguistic approach to the syntax and semantics of English and Ukrainian languages synthesises the corpora of natural language texts. The automatic operation of relevant text data is carried out. Comparative analysis of these languages facilitates the development of the linguistic algorithm for converting natural language texts of Germanic and Slavic type.

    Noname manuscript No. (will be inserted by the editor) A Heuristically Modified FP-Tree for Ontology Learning with Applications in Education Safwan Shatnawi · Mohamed Medhat Gaber ∗ · Mihaela Cocea Received: date / Accepted: date Abstract We propose a heuristically modified FP-Tree for ontology learning from text. Unlike previous research, for concept extraction, we use a regular expression parser approach widely adopted in compiler construction, i.e., deterministic finite automata (DFA). Thus, the concepts are extracted from unstructured documents. For ontology learning, we use a frequent pattern mining approach and employ a rule mining heuristic function to enhance its quality. This process does not rely on predefined lexico-syntactic patterns, thus, it is applicable for different subjects. We employ the ontology in a question-answering system for students' content-related questions. For validation, we used textbook questions/answers and questions from online course forums. Subject experts rated the quality of the system's answers on a subset of questions and their ratings were used to identify the most appropriate automatic semantic text similarity metric to use as a validation metric for all answers. The Latent Semantic Analysis was identified as the closest to the experts' ratings. We compared the use of our ontology with the use of Text2Onto for the question-answering system and found that with our ontology 80% of the questions were answered, while with Text2Onto only 28.4% were answered, thanks to the finer grained hierarchy our approach is able to produce.

  • Memory Capacity of Neural Turing Machines with Matrix Representation
    Memory Capacity of Neural Turing Machines with Matrix Representation Animesh Renanse * [email protected] Department of Electronics & Electrical Engineering Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati Assam, India Rohitash Chandra * [email protected] School of Mathematics and Statistics University of New South Wales Sydney, NSW 2052, Australia Alok Sharma [email protected] Laboratory for Medical Science Mathematics RIKEN Center for Integrative Medical Sciences Yokohama, Japan *Equal contributions Editor: Abstract It is well known that recurrent neural networks (RNNs) faced limitations in learning long- term dependencies that have been addressed by memory structures in long short-term memory (LSTM) networks. Matrix neural networks feature matrix representation which inherently preserves the spatial structure of data and has the potential to provide better memory structures when compared to canonical neural networks that use vector repre- sentation. Neural Turing machines (NTMs) are novel RNNs that implement notion of programmable computers with neural network controllers to feature algorithms that have copying, sorting, and associative recall tasks. In this paper, we study augmentation of mem- arXiv:2104.07454v1 [cs.LG] 11 Apr 2021 ory capacity with matrix representation of RNNs and NTMs (MatNTMs). We investigate if matrix representation has a better memory capacity than the vector representations in conventional neural networks. We use a probabilistic model of the memory capacity us- ing Fisher information and investigate how the memory capacity for matrix representation networks are limited under various constraints, and in general, without any constraints. In the case of memory capacity without any constraints, we found that the upper bound on memory capacity to be N 2 for an N ×N state matrix.
