This paper describes an efficient sampler for synchronous grammar induction under a nonparametric Bayesian prior. Inspired by ideas from slice sampling, our sampler is able to dra...
This paper describes a technique for learning both the number of states and the topologyof Hidden Markov Models from examples. The inductionprocess starts with the most specific m...
Tree based translation models are a compelling means of integrating linguistic information into machine translation. Syntax can inform lexical selection and reordering choices and...
Probabilistic grammars offer great flexibility in modeling discrete sequential data like natural language text. Their symbolic component is amenable to inspection by humans, while...
It is widely conjectured that the excellent ROC performance of biological vision systems is due in large part to the exploitation of context at each of many levels in a part/whole...
