Abstract
Embodiments are directed to a method of utilizing an ensemble of distributional semantics systems in conjunction with a domain term extractor for generating domain-specific synonyms. The method allows for extraction of high-quality, domain-specific synonyms that can be used in an information handling system, such as a question-answer system or in an information retrieval (IR) system, capable of processing natural language. According to embodiments, the domain term extractor identifies the words for which synonyms are sought, and the ensemble of distributional semantics systems determines the synonyms.
