Abstract

This paper presents a question/answering system for searching the web. The system accepts natural language questions in Italian and returns as answer a ranked list of document passages together with the URL of the whole document. Three crucial aspects related to the web scenario have been investigated: the linguistic expansion of the query, the optimization of the search boolean expression, the evaluation of the results.
