Abstract
The paper presents a system for querying (in natural language) a set of text documents from a limited domain. The domain knowledge, represented in description logics (DL), is used for filtering the documents returned as answer and it is extended dynamically (when new concepts are identified in the texts), as result of DL inference mechanisms. The conceptual hierarchy is built semi-automatically from the texts. Concept instances are identified using shallow natural language parsing techniques.- Anthology ID:
