Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Word Lattice
As shown in Figure FIGREF4 , a word lattice is a directed graph INLINEFORM0 , where INLINEFORM1 represents a node set and INLINEFORM2 represents a edge set. For a sentence in Chinese, which is a sequence of Chinese characters INLINEFORM3 , all of its possible substrings that can be considered as words are treated as vertexes, i.e. INLINEFORM4 . Then, all neighbor words are connected by directed edges according to their positions in the original sentence, i.e. INLINEFORM5 . 
 Question: How do they obtain word lattices from words?
Output (English): By considering words as vertices and generating directed edges between neighboring words within a sentence
