- TextdokumentFrom Natural Language Questions to SPARQL Queries: A Pattern-based Approach(BTW 2019, 2019) Steinmetz, Nadine; Arning, Ann-Katrin; Sattler, Kai-UweLinked Data knowledge bases are valuable sources of knowledge which give insights, reveal facts about various relationships and provide a large amount of metadata in well-structured form. Although the format of semantic information – namely as RDF(S) – is kept simple by representing each fact as a triple of subject, property and object, the access to the knowledge is only available using SPARQL queries on the data. Therefore, Question Answering (QA) systems provide a user-friendly way to access any type of knowledge base and especially for Linked Data sources to get insight into the semantic information. As RDF(S) knowledge bases are usually structured in the same way and provide per se semantic metadata about the contained information, we provide a novel approach that is independent from the underlying knowledge base. Thus, the main contribution of our proposed approach constitutes the simple replaceability of the underlying knowledge base. The algorithm is based on general question and query patterns and only accesses the knowledge base for the actual query generation and execution. This paper presents the proposed approach and an evaluation in comparison to state-of-the-art Linked Data approaches for challenges of QA systems.
- TextdokumentWhen is Harry Potters birthday? – Question Answering on Linked Data(BTW 2019, 2019) Steinmetz, Nadine; Arning, Ann-Katrin; Sattler, Kai-UweQuestion Answering (QA) systems provide a user-friendly way to access any type of knowledge base and especially for Linked Data sources to get insight into semantic information. But understanding natural language, transferring it to a formal query and finding the correct answer is a complex task. The challenge is even harder when the QA system aims to be easily adaptable regarding the underlying information. This goal can be achieved by an approach that is independent from the knowledge base. Thereby, the respective data can be replaced or updated without changes on the system itself. With this paper we present our QA approach and the demonstrator which is able to consume natural language questions of general knowledge (not specific to a topic or domain).
