Abstract

Similarity between sentences plays an important role in a variety of applications of natural language process. The paper proposes a novel method to calculate sentence similarity, which takes into account both semantic and syntax: measuring semantic similarity based on events, measuring syntactic similarity based on content words sequence. Our experimental results show that the method is reasonable and effective.
