Conversations among characters in The Gadfly play an important role in interpreting the complex mind of the hero. This paper employs DA theories, including Speech Act Theory(SAT), Cooperative Principle(CP), and Politeness Principle(PP) to appreciate this great work. Thus, we can find a distinct contrast between Arthur and Rivarez, and the agony in Rivarez's mind.展开更多

This method uses the relevance of questions and answers to learn to rank the answers. Firstly, the method analyses questions to generate the query string, and then submits the query string to search engines to retrieve relevant documents. Sec- ondly, the method makes retrieved documents seg- mentation and identifies the most relevant candidate answers, in addition, it uses the rhetorical relations of rhetorical structure theory to analyze the relationship to determine the inherent relationship between para- graphs or sentences and generate the answer candi- date paragraphs or sentences. Thirdly, we construct the answer ranking model,, and extract five feature groups and adopt Ranking Support Vector Machine （SVM） algorithm to train ranking model. Finally, it re-ranks the answers with the training model and fred the optimal answers. Experiments show that the proposed method combined with discourse structure features can effectively improve the answer extrac- ting accuracy and the quality of non-factoid an- swers. The Mean Reciprocal Rank （MRR） of the an- swer extraction reaches 69.53%.展开更多
