Abstract
A computer answers a question using a data table. The computer receives a user question and a target table containing a target cell corresponding to a target answer for the user question, with the target cell corresponding to a target column and a target row. The computer generates, a first classifier to provide column correlation values reflecting the probability that a given column is the target column. The computer generates a second classifier that provides row correlation values reflecting the probability that a given row is the target row. The computer applies the first classifier to the target table to determine a column correlation value for each column. The computer applies the second classifier to the target table to determine a row correlation value for each row. The computer suggests, as the target cell, a cell having elevated column and row correlation values relative to other target table cells.
