A New Approach to Compute the Semantic Similarity of Chinese Question Sentence

The sentence similarity computation plays an important role in each field of Chinese Information Processing. A new approach to compute the Chinese question semantic similarity is presented, which is divided into two steps: the first step is to extract the Question Semantic Representation from the question, and the second step is to compute the question semantic similarity based on the Question Semantic Representation. This paper uses the method of Question Semantic Model Matching to extract the Question Semantic Representation from the question. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm worked more reasonable in the real calculation. In addition, our approach is of great value for many potential applications in the future.
