Natural Language Inference by Tree-Based Convolution and Heuristic Matching

Full Text: P16-2022.pdf PDF

In this paper, we propose the TBCNNpair model to recognize entailment and contradiction between two sentences. In our model, a tree-based convolutional neural network (TBCNN) captures sentencelevel semantics; then heuristic matching layers like concatenation, element-wise product/difference combine the information in individual sentences. Experimental results show that our model outperforms existing sentence encoding-based approaches by a large margin.
