Abstract

See full text

Methods to perform an operation comprising: identifying a first attribute of a source code in a deep question answering system, computing an influence score for the first attribute based on a rule in the source code used to compute a confidence score for each of a plurality of candidate answers generated by the deep question answering system, computing an importance score for the first attribute based at least in part on the computed influence score, and upon determining that the importance score exceeds a predefined threshold, storing an indication that the first attribute is an important attribute relative to other attributes specified in the source code.
