@misc{Collarana_Heuss_Lehmann_Lytra_Maheshwari_Nedelchev_Schmidt_Trivedi_2018, abstractnote = {In this work, we outline an approach for question answering over regulatory documents. In contrast to traditional means to access information in the domain, the proposed system attempts to deliver an accurate and precise answer to user queries. This is accomplished by a two-step approach which first selects relevant paragraphs given a question; and then compares the selected paragraph with user query to predict a span in the paragraph as the answer. We employ neural network based solutions for each step, and compare them with existing, and alternate baselines. We perform our evaluations with a gold-standard benchmark comprising over 600 questions on the MaRisk regulatory document. In our experiments, we observe that our proposed system outperforms other baselines.}, added-at = {2024-10-02T10:38:17.000+0200}, author = {Collarana, Diego and Heuss, T. and Lehmann, Jens and Lytra, Ioanna and Maheshwari, Gaurav and Nedelchev, Rostislav and Schmidt, T. and Trivedi, Priyansh}, biburl = {https://puma.scadsai.uni-leipzig.de/bibtex/2b99311ff8ea23401dc72eee8f5994927/scadsfct}, doi = {10.3233/978-1-61499-935-5-41}, interhash = {5a65330bc52552b80d3b5a14341e4240}, intrahash = {b99311ff8ea23401dc72eee8f5994927}, keywords = {imported}, timestamp = {2024-10-02T10:38:17.000+0200}, title = {A question answering system on regulatory documents}, url = {https://publica.fraunhofer.de/handle/publica/407532}, year = 2018 }
