Abstract

One or more techniques and systems are disclosed for generating comparative patterns for use in identifying comparators. A set of comparator pairs is extracted from a first comparative pattern in a pattern database that comprises one or more comparative patterns. Questions are retrieved from a question collection using respective comparator pairs to generate comparative questions. Potential comparative patterns are generated from a combination of the comparator pairs and comparative questions, and the potential comparative patterns are evaluated by determining their reliability, in order to generate second comparative patterns for the pattern database.
