Linguistic features play an important role in developing an accurate question classifier. This paper proposes to use typed dependencies which are extracted automatically from dependency parses of questions to improve accuracy of classification. Experiment results show that with only surface typed dependencies, one can improve the accuracy of a discriminative question classifier by over 8.0% on two benchmark datasets. date: 2014-10 date_type: published official_url: http://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-11680-8_52 id_number: doi:10.1007/978-3-319-11680-8_52 contact_email: hieupx@vnu.edu.vn full_text_status: restricted pres_type: paper volume: 326 pagerange: 653-665 event_title: The 8th International Conference on Knowledge and Systems Engineering (KSE) event_location: Hanoi, Vietnam event_dates: 9-11 October 2014 event_type: conference refereed: TRUE issn: 2194-5357 book_title: Knowledge and Systems Engineering funders: FPT Technology Research Institute citation: Le, Hong Phuong and Phan, Xuan Hieu and Nguyen, Tien Dung (2014) Using Dependency Analysis to Improve Question Classification.
