Recognizing Textual Entailment with LCC´s GROUNDHOG System

Recognizing Textual Entailment with LCC´s GROUNDHOG System

This video was recorded at PASCAL Second Challenges Workshop, Venice 2006. We introduce a new system for recognizing textual entailment (known as GROUNDHOG) which utilizes a classification-based approach to combine lexico-semantic information derived from text processing applications with a large collection of paraphrases acquired automatically from the WWW. Trained on 200,000 examples of textual entailment extracted from newswire corpora, our system managed to classify more than 75% of the pairs in the 2006 PASCAL RTE Test Set correctly.
