Abstract

We describe a question answering system for Dutch that we used for our participation in the 2006 CLEF Question Answering Dutch monolingual task. We give an overview of the system and focus on the question classification module, the multi-dimensional markup for data storage and access, the answer processing component, and our probabilistic approach to estimating answer correctness.
