We have developed Metis, a question-answering system that finds an answer by matching a question graph with the knowledge graphs. The question graph is obtained as a result of semantic analysis of a question sentence, the knowledge graphs are similarly analyzed from knowledge sentences retrieved from a database using keywords extracted from the question sentence. In retrieving such knowledge sentences, the system searches for and collects them using Lucene, a search engine, based on search keywords extracted from the question graph. To extract the answer, Metis calculates the degrees of similarity between the question and knowledge graphs to conduct precise matching. In this matching, the system calculates the degrees of similarity, which is the relative size of the similarity co-occurrence graph to the question graphs with respect to all combinations of nodes in the knowledge graph corresponding to those in the question graph. The system then chooses the knowledge graph with the highest degree of similarity and extracts from it the portion that corresponds to the given interrogative word. The system presents this portion as the answer. The evaluation experiment was done by using 100 quiz millionaire questions. The precision to obtain the correct answer within the first three answers was 74%. Moreover, it participated in the evaluation contest in NTCIR, and the precision was 18% in QAC which asked factoid question, the precision was 22% in CLQA which asked the reasons, the method and etc.

我们已经开发了METIS，这是一个提问系统，通过将问题图与知识图匹配来找到答案。问题图是由于对问题句子的语义分析而获得的，因此，使用从问题句子中提取的关键字从数据库中从数据库中检索的知识句子类似地分析了知识图。在检索此类知识句子时，系统会根据从问题图中提取的搜索关键字Lucene搜索并收集它们。为了提取答案，METIS计算问题和知识图之间的相似程度以进行精确匹配。在此匹配中，系统计算相似性的程度，这是相似性的相对大小与问题图相对于与问题图中的节点的所有组合相对于问题图的所有组合。然后，系统选择具有最高相似程度的知识图，并从中提取与给定疑问词相对应的部分。该系统将此部分作为答案。评估实验是通过使用100个测验百万富翁问题来完成的。在前三个答案中获得正确答案的精度是74％。此外，它参加了NTCIR的评估竞赛，QAC中的精度为18％，QAC提出了FACTOID问题，CLQA中的精度为22％，该问题询问了原因，方法和等。
