Error in Demo

[jithurjacob]

Hi in the online demo given at http://quepy.machinalis.com/ I'm getting result for "what is the plot of Titanic?" but not for "what is the plot of titanic?"

Is this expected?

Hi, yes, this is expected to happen.
It is very likely that "titanic" is interpreted by the POS tagger as an
adjective (pertaining to titans) and "Titanic" is interpreted as a proper
noun.

Regards,

Rafael

Can we actually solve this by training our own tagger with movie names. Pardon me if I'm wrong I'm new to NLP.

That would be one way to do it, yes.
If you know your questions will only be on a specific domain (ex. movies) there are more things you can do, like relaxing the need for a proper noun to be part of the movie title.
