Beyond Static: Related Questions Retrieval Through Conversations in Community Question Answering
The paper introduces TeCQR, a model for related question retrieval in community question answering platforms that leverages conversational interactions and tag-enhanced clarifying questions to improve retrieval accuracy. Unlike static methods, TeCQR incorporates dynamic feedback and fine-grained representations through a two-stage training process. The model includes a noise tolerance mechanism to handle irrelevant responses and better align questions with tags. Experiments show TeCQR outperforms existing state-of-the-art approaches.
