| Abstract | The present article addresses an attempt to apply questions in university entrance examinations to the evaluation of textual entailment recognition. Questions in several fields, such as history and politics, primarily test the examinee’s knowledge in the form of choosing true statements from multiple choices. Answering such questions can be regarded as equivalent to finding evidential texts from a textbase such as textbooks and Wikipedia. Therefore, this task can be recast as recognizing textual entailment between a description in a textbase and a statement given in a question. We focused on the National Center Test for University Admission in Japan and converted questions into the evaluation data for textual entailment recognition by using Wikipedia as a textbase. Consequently, it is revealed that nearly half of the questions can be mapped into textual entailment recognition; 941 text pairs were created from 404 questions from six subjects. This data set is provided for a subtask of NTCIR RITE (Recognizing Inference in Text), and 16 systems from six teams used the data set for evaluation. The evaluation results revealed that the best system achieved a correct answer ratio of 56%, which is significantly better than a random choice baseline. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
