Abstract

Sentence similarity measure is an important concern for researchers for text retrieval in areas such as text mining, web information retrieval, decision making and question matching. Existing methods for computing sentence similarity have been adopted and derived from word similarity measure and concentrated on multidimensional space. In this proposed work, words from the sentences are considered and their respective taxonomies are built using Word Net. The evolved taxonomies are merged to develop Hierarchical Ontologies. A comparison is done using an empirical formula (SenSim) on the Hierarchical Ontology developed from the two sentences and found that our proposed method gives fairly good sentence similarity measure.
