• Abstract: In this paper, we introduce a novel method with graph-to-segment mapping for question answering over knowledge graphs, which helps understanding question utterances. This method centers on semantic parsing, a key approach for interpreting these utterances. The challenges lie in comprehending implicit entities, relationships, and complex constraints like time, ordinality, and aggregation within questions, contextualized by the knowledge graph. Our framework employs a combination of rule-based and neural-based techniques to parse and construct highly accurate and comprehensive semantic segment sequences. These sequences form semantic query graphs, effectively representing question utterances. We approach question semantic parsing as a sequence generation task, utilizing an encoder-decoder neural network to transform natural language questions into semantic segments. Moreover, to enhance the parsing of implicit entities and relations, we incorporate a graph neural network that leverages the context of the knowledge graph to better understand question representations. Our experimental evaluations on two datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and superior performance of our model in semantic parsing for question answering.

  We propose a novel approach leveraging graph convolutional networks (GCNs) to better model the inherent structure of questions. By representing questions as graphs, our method allows GCNs to learn from the interconnected nature of language more effectively. Our findings demonstrate that GCNs, augmented with phrase-based features, offer a promising solution for more accurate and context-aware question classification.

  We propose a framework of question parsing and execution on textual QA. The proposed framework can be viewed as a top-down question parsing followed by a bottom-up answer backtracking. Our experiments on MuSiQue, 2WikiQA, HotpotQA, and NQ show that the proposed parsing and hybrid execution framework outperforms existing approaches in supervised, few-shot, and zero-shot settings.

  Temporal grounding is the task of locating a specific segment from an untrimmed video according to a query sentence. We introduce a new Compositional Temporal Grounding task and construct two new dataset splits. We argue that the inherent structured semantics inside the videos and language is the crucial factor to achieve compositional generalization.

We introduce semantic coherence learning to explicitly encourage the semantic coherence of the adaptive hierarchical graph network from three hierarchies.
