TP391.1; The combination of quantitative evaluation(QE)and non-quantitative evaluation(NQE)is an important evaluation tool in the fields of academic level evaluation(e.g.,EasyChair,Academic paper review form)and internet commodity evaluation(e.g.,Amazon's review,Feedback).But the inconsistency between QE and NQE greatly reduces the correctness and usability of the evaluation.Therefore,it is a necessary task to judge whether QE is consistent with NQE.In this paper,the predicate formula satisfiability problem is firstly reduced in polynomial time to the consistency problem of QE and NQE,and the uncertainty of the consistency problem is proved.Then the approximate solution to the problem is investigated by using a natural language processing method,which performs sentiment analysis on NQE and finally invokes a database query statement to determine whether QE is consistent with NQE.The results shed light on the feasibility of using the natural language processing method to solve undecidable problems.
