Abstract

A method, system and computer-usable medium are disclosed for automating the generation of an incorrect answer to a question suitable for a multiple choice exam. An input corpus of human-readable text associated with a subject domain is provided to a question generation system, where it is processed to generate a set of question-answer (QA) pairs. The set of QA pairs is then processed with the corpus of input text to extract a set of input keywords and concepts. A concept dependency graph is then used to perform disambiguation operations on the set of input keywords and concepts, and the reference keywords and concepts it contains, to generate a set of distractor words. The resulting set of distractor words is then processed with the set of QA pairs to generate a set of multiple choice question-answers that include various distractor answers.
