| Abstract(in English) | In the previous study of recognizing textual entailment, content word matching based approaches are often applied into recognizing entailments. However, in the methods that do not take into account the order of the content words appearing in the sentences, not small number of sentence pairs would be wrongly judged as entailed. In this paper, thus we propose an approach to recognize entailments by detecting the inclusive relation with text structures. The Predicate-Argument Structure Analyzer (ASA) was used to generate the sentence structure from the natural language sentences. In conventional ASA analysis, classification of content words and function words was inadequate for predicates in copula sentences. Thus, the ASA was improved on this point and the evaluation experiment was conducted using the RITE2 problem set provided in NTCIR-10. As the results of the evaluation experiments, we report that three cases of successful recognition of entailments by the improvement of ASA. |
