Abstract

A question and answer (QA) system, computer program product, and computer-implemented method configured to determine an answer to a question that includes a measurement value. In one example, the QA system receives a question and analyzes the question to identify a measurement value specified in the question. The QA system determines relevant passages to the question. The QA system assigns a measurement value confidence score to a relevant passage based on a comparison of the measurement value specified in the question and a second measurement value specified in the relevant passage. The QA system determines an order of the relevant passages using the measurement value confidence score of each of the relevant passages. The QA system determines an answer to the question based on the order of the relevant passages.
