Abstract

An approach is provided for ranking candidate answers to a natural language question. A natural language question is received from a user of a mobile device. Candidate answers to the received natural language question are generated. A lexicon is generated based on contextual information of the user determined by the mobile device. Contextual information of the user is forecasted based on usage of the mobile device. Based in part on the lexicon and the forecasted contextual information, the candidate answers to the natural language question are ranked.
