Abstract
In this article, we present the overall structure of our specific system for generating answers of temporal questions based on Arabic temporal resource, called Ar-TQAS (Arabic Temporal Question Answering System). This system deals with answering temporal questions involving several forms of inference to obtain a relevant answer. The Ar-TQAS system was built and the experiments showed good results with an accuracy of 72%.
