Many tasks of natural language processing such as information retrieval, intelligent question answering, and machine translation require the calculation of sentence similarity. The traditional calculation methods used in the past could not solve semantic understanding problems well. First, the model structure based on Siamese lack of interaction between sentences; second, it has matching problem which contains lacking position information and only using partial matching factor based on the matching model. In this paper, a combination of word and word’s dependence is proposed to calculate the sentence similarity. This combination can extract the word features and word’s dependency features. To extract more matching features, a bi-directional multi-interaction matching sequence model is proposed by using word2vec and dependency2vec. This model obtains matching features by convolving and pooling the word-granularity (word vector, dependency vector) interaction sequences in two directions. Next, the model aggregates the bi-direction matching features. The paper evaluates the model on two tasks: paraphrase identification and natural language inference. The experimental results show that the combination of word and word’s dependence can enhance the ability of extracting matching features between two sentences. The results also show that the model with dependency can achieve higher accuracy than these models without using dependency.

FAQ system is a question answering system which finds the question sentence from question-answer collection and then returns its corresponding answer to user. The task of matching questions to corresponding question-answer pairs has become a major challenge in FAQ system. This paper proposes a method for sentence similarity metric between questions according to its semantic similarity as well as the length of question length. Experiments show that this method can improve the accuracy and intelligence of answering system, has some practical value.

Sentence similarity analysis has been applied in many fields, such as machine translation, the question answering system, and voice customer service. As a basic task of natural language processing, sentence similarity analysis plays an important role in many fields. The task of sentence similarity analysis is to establish a sentence similarity scoring model through multi-features. In previous work, researchers proposed a variety of models to deal with the calculation of sentence similarity. But these models do not consider the association information of sentence pairs, but only input sentence pairs into the model. In this article, we propose a sentence feature extraction model based on multi-feature attention. In addition, with the development of deep learning and the application of nature-inspired algorithms, researchers have proposed various hybrid algorithms that combine nature-inspired algorithms with neural networks. The hybrid algorithms not only solve the problem of decision-making based on multiple features but also improve the performance of the model. In the model, we use the attention mechanism to extract sentence features and assign weight. Then, the convolutional neural network is used to reduce the dimension of the matrix. In the training process, we integrate the firefly algorithm in the neural networks. The experimental results show that the accuracy of our model is 74.21%.
