Aranea::Modules::BoostWhereAnswers
- Aranea module for boosting
answers to `where' questions
This Aranea modules is meant to be used in conjunction with the
Aranea::Shell
.
This Aranea module serves as a knowledge-based answer booster specialized for `where' questions. The idea is to incorporate a named-entity extractor and employ other heuristics to filter out obviously wrong answers. The critical insight is to perform this of filtering after the redundancy-based answer extraction process has run its course, not during the process. This way, less-than-perfect named entity detection will not hurt system performance. In general, named-entity recall is more important than precision because Web-redundancy serves to boost precision.
