PROVIDING SEMANTICALLY RELEVANT ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS

A device implementing a system for determining whether a semantically relevant answer can be provided with respect to a new question includes a processor configured to identify a question and a semantically relevant answer from source data, and to identify a semantically irrelevant answer to the question from a corpus of data corresponding to the source data based at least in part on the question and the answer. The processor is configured to assign a positive label to the semantically relevant answer, and a negative label to the semantically irrelevant answer. The processor is configured to generate a machine learning model based on the question, the positive label assigned to the semantically relevant answer, and the negative label assigned to the semantically irrelevant answer, and to provide the machine learning model to facilitate a determination of whether a semantically relevant answer can be provided with respect to a subsequent question.
