Cross Language Question Answering System Menggunakan Pembobotan Heuristic dan Multidokumen

Abstract

People tend to ask when they need to get some information. This often raises a difficulty whenever available information is not in same the language with the person understands or speaks. Cross Language Question Answering System (CL-QAS) is an information retrieval system that is able to handle this kind of situation. It accepts a question query as the input and outputs the answer in the translated language. In this study, CL-QAS is developed that takes query in Indonesian language and answers in English. The system output is calculated by weighting heuristic and multi-documents. The average time to produce answer is quite fast, i.e. 3.03 seconds. The system accuracy is good considering for the following queries: SIAPA (100%), KAPAN (100%), DIMANA (100%), and BERAPA (90%).
