Abstract

This paper briefly reports our submissions to the Semantic Textual Similarity (STS) task in the SemEval 2012 (Task 6). We first use knowledge-based methods to compute word semantic similarity as well as Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD). We also consider word order similarity from the structure of the sentence. Finally we sum up several aspects of similarity with different coefficients and get the sentence similarity score.
