FBK-TR: Applying SVM with multiple linguistic features for Cross-Level Semantic Similarity

Recently, the task of measuring seman- tic similarity between given texts has drawn much attention from the Natural Language Processing community. Espe- cially, the task becomes more interesting when it comes to measuring the seman- tic similarity between different-sized texts, e.g paragraph-sentence, sentence-phrase, phrase-word, etc. In this paper, we, the FBK-TR team, describe our system par- ticipating in Task 3 "Cross-Level Seman- tic Similarity", at SemEval 2014. We also report the results obtained by our system, compared to the baseline and other partic- ipating systems in this task
