On the SPOT : Question Answering over Temporally Enhanced Structured Data. Abstract: We investigate the notion of temporal diversity, bringing together two recently active threads of research, namely temporal ranking and diversification of search results. A novel method is developed to determine search results consisting of documents that are relevant to the query and were published at diverse times of interest to the query. Preliminary experiments on twenty years’ worth of newspaper articles from The New York Times demonstrate characteristics of our method and compare it against two baselines.
