Semantic Textual Similarity with Siamese Neural Networks

Tharindu Ranasinghe, Constantin Orasan, Ruslan Mitkov


Abstract
Calculating the Semantic Textual Similarity (STS) is an important research area in natural language processing which plays a significant role in many applications such as question answering, document summarisation, information retrieval and information extraction. This paper evaluates Siamese recurrent architectures, a special type of neural networks, which are used here to measure STS. Several variants of the architecture are compared with existing methods
