Is the context-based Word2Vec representation useful to determine Question Words for Generators?

Abstract

Question and answer generation approaches focus on the quality and correctness of generated questions for online courses but miss to use a good question word, which is a deficiency reported by many previous studies. In this experimental setup, we explored whether the word2vec representation, which is semantic-based, can be used to predict question words. We compare two pipelines of the prediction process and observed that splitting the problem into several subproblems performs similar to feeding a neural network with all the data. Although our approach is promising to take the context-based representation into account we can see that the success rate is still low but better than guessing.
