Abstract

In this paper we describe the application of our statistical pattern classification approach to question answering (QA) to the rapid development of monolingual QA systems. We show how the approach has been applied successfully to QA in English, Japanese, Chinese, Russian and Swedish to form the basis of our publicly accessible web-based multilingual QA system at http://asked.jp.
