This paper proposes an integration of
Recognizing Textual Entailment
(RTE) with other additional information to deal with the
Answer Validation
task. The additional information used in our participation in the
Answer Validation Exercise
(AVE 2008) is from named-entity (NE) recognizer, question analysis component, etc. We have submitted two runs, one run for English and the other for German, achieving f-measures of 0.64 and 0.61 respectively. Compared with our system last year, which purely depends on the output of the RTE system, the extra information does show its effectiveness.
