Arabic Cooperative Answer Generation via Wikipedia Article Infoboxes
[EN] The typical question-answering system is facing many challenges related
to the processing of questions and information resources in the extraction
and generation of adequate answers. These challenges increase when the requested
answer is cooperative and its language is Arabic. In this paper, we propose
an original approach to generate cooperative answers for user-definitional
questions designed to be integrated in a question-answering system. This approach
is mainly based on the exploitation of the semi-structured Web
knowledge which consists in using features derived from Wikipedia article infoboxes
to generate cooperative answers. It is globally independent of a particular
language, which gives it the ability to be integrated in any definitional question-answering
system. We have chosen to integrate and experiment it in a definitional
question-answering system dealing with the Arabic language entitled
DefArabicQA. The results showed that this system has a significant impact on
the approach efficiency regarding the improvement of the quality of the answer.The work of the third author was partially funded by the Spanish Ministry of Economy, Industry and Competitiveness (MINECO) under the SomEMBED research project (TIN2015-71147-C2-1-P) and by the Generalitat Valenciana under the grant ALMAMATER (PrometeoII/2014/030).Trigui, O.; Belguith, L.; Rosso, P.

History of Philosophy and the Reflective Society
Make believe we are in 2028, attending the 26th World Congress of Philosophy, then the question is: how will philosophers delve into historic texts? Not on paper, but on devices. And each philosophical proposition uttered by any philosopher at any time will not stay on its own. It will instead be co-created by many others. The history of philosophy will be participative, thus contributing to the establishment of a reflective and inclusive society
