Micro Reading with Priors : Towards Second Generation Machine Readers

Micro reading in machine reading can be compared to deep reading in human reading. Deep reading has been defined as a set of processes that enable comprehension and that include inferential and deductive reasoning, analogical skills, critical analysis, reflection, and insight. In this paper, we sketch what we envision to be a viable approach to micro reading. The proposed approach leverages the knowledge that has been acquired by the machine readers that have been developed to date.
