Abstract

Nowadays the internet is becoming a huge dump of documents, links and all other sorts of information. Most common possibilities to explore this information are information retrieval applications such as web search engines. Despite the fact that search engines are doing an excellent job, they still return too much inaccurate information. The solution to this problem can be found in the form of question answering systems, where the user gives a question in natural language, similarly to talking with another person. The answer is the exact information instead of a list of possible results. This paper presents the design of our ontology-driven question answering system with semantic web services support.
