Question Answering
Answer Extraction
Textual Question Answering
The task/process where computer systems try to automatically answer questions posed by users in the form of natural language.
Question answering or Answer extraction (AE) aims at retrieving those exact passages of a document that directly answer a given user question. AE is more ambitious than information retrieval and information extraction in that the retrieval results are short phrases, not entire documents, and in that the queries may be arbitrarily specific. It is less ambitious than full-fledged question answering in that the answers are not generated from a knowledge base but looked up in the text of documents.
