In practice, lexical chains are typically built using term reiteration or resource-based measures of semantic distance. The former approach misses out on a significant portion of ...
Lexical chaining is a technique for identifying semanticallyrelated terms in text. We propose concept chaining to link semantically-related concepts within biomedical text togethe...
We propose a framework to derive the distance between concepts from distributional measures of word co-occurrences. We use the categories in a published thesaurus as coarse-graine...
Many systems for tasks such as question answering, multi-document summarization, and information retrieval need robust numerical measures of lexical relatedness. Standard thesauru...
We describe a method for learning statistical models of images using a second-order hidden Markov mesh model. First, an image can be segmented in a way that best matches its stati...
