I know question-question match is a text similarity problem. What about question-answer match or question-doc match? It is used in information retrieval. question-question match is indeed text similarity. But how do you define question-answer similarity? Thank you!!

You can refer to our paper "A Deep Look into Neural Ranking Models for Information Retrieval" to get more discussion about different matching tasks.
