Seminario "QA: from Turing Test to Intelligent Information Service"
In the history of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Turing Test, a question answering imitation game was proposed to determine whether the computer system has intelligence. It becomes the ultimate goal to answer all the natural language questions for generations of AI researchers.
In the past century, AI changed tremendously from its theories to its applications, while with this goal unchanged. Especially in the past 20 years, along with the development of the Internet, computers have the ability to acquire, store and process huge volumes of data, which makes the AI-related techniques deeply involve themselves in the domain of intelligent information processing.
On one hand, Question Answering develops in theories, models and methods with the combination of the large scale data processing. On the other hand, the next-generation information service engines are expected to integrate Question Answering as an important part to retrieve and display information, where knowledge is important for information accumulation, understanding and serving. This presentation will present the history and development of the Question Answering, its related key technologies and applications in the background of big data and AI.
