Music information retrieval is characterized by a number of various user information needs. Systems are being developed that allow searchers to find melodies, rhythms, genres, an...
This paper describes a framework for defining domain specific Feature Functions in a user friendly form to be used in a Maximum Entropy Markov Model (MEMM) for the Named Entity Re...
This paper proposes a chunking strategy to detect unknown words in Chinese word segmentation. First, a raw sentence is pre-segmented into a sequence of word atoms 1 using a maximum...
We describe a new tagging model where the states of a hidden Markov model (HMM) estimated by unsupervised learning are incorporated as the features in a maximum entropy model. Our...
