  abstract  = {This paper reports the STS-UHH participation in the SemEval 2017 shared
	Task 1 of Semantic Textual Similarity (STS). Overall, we submitted 3 runs
	covering
	monolingual and cross-lingual STS tracks. Our participation involves two
	approaches:
	unsupervised approach, which estimates a word alignment-based similarity
	score, and supervised approach, which combines dependency graph similarity
	and coverage features with lexical similarity measures using regression
	methods. We also present a way on ensembling both models. Out of 84 submitted
	runs, our team best multi-lingual run has been ranked 12th in overall
	performance
	with correlation of 0.61, 7th among 31 participating teams.},
