摘要
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) are now considered as representatives of online education. In addition to watching course videos and taking tests, online question & answering (Q&A) also plays an important role during MOOC learning. In this paper, we introduce a question-answering (QA) system called MCQA for MOOCs. The system comprises several modules, including question classification, similarity retrieval, similarity computation, and chitchat generation. On a real MOOC platform, MCQA demonstrates exceptional performance, with experimental results showing a precision rate exceeding 90% and an average duration of a Q&A session of less than 100 ms. Compared with other Chinese-based QA systems, MCQA provides superior open-ended QA capabilities, excelling in performance and covering numerous learning scenarios.
