Neural Generative Question Answering
This paper presents an end-to-end neural network model, named Neural
Generative Question Answering (GENQA), that can generate answers to simple
factoid questions, based on the facts in a knowledge-base. More specifically,
the model is built on the encoder-decoder framework for sequence-to-sequence
learning, while equipped with the ability to enquire the knowledge-base, and is
trained on a corpus of question-answer pairs, with their associated triples in
the knowledge-base. Empirical study shows the proposed model can effectively
deal with the variations of questions and answers, and generate right and
natural answers by referring to the facts in the knowledge-base. The experiment
on question answering demonstrates that the proposed model can outperform an
embedding-based QA model as well as a neural dialogue model trained on the same
data.Comment: Accepted by IJCAI 201
