Fast Syntactic Analysis for Statistical Language Modeling via Substructure Sharing and Uptraining
Long-span features, such as syntax, can improve language models for tasks such as speech recognition and machine translation. However, these language models can be difficult to u...

Extracting Narrative Timelines as Temporal Dependency Structures
We propose a new approach to characterizing the timeline of a text: temporal dependency structures, where all the events of a narrative are linked via partial ordering relations l...

Quasi-Synchronous Phrase Dependency Grammars for Machine Translation
We present a quasi-synchronous dependency grammar (Smith and Eisner, 2006) for machine translation in which the leaves of the tree are phrases rather than words as in previous wor...

Web-Scale Features for Full-Scale Parsing
Counts from large corpora (like the web) can be powerful syntactic cues. Past work has used web counts to help resolve isolated ambiguities, such as binary noun-verb PP attachment...

Event Extraction as Dependency Parsing
Nested event structures are a common occurrence in both open domain and domain specific extraction tasks, e.g., a “crime” event can cause a “investigation” event, which c...

Parser Adaptation and Projection with Quasi-Synchronous Grammar Features
We connect two scenarios in structured learning: adapting a parser trained on one corpus to another annotation style, and projecting syntactic annotations from one language to ano...

Dependency Parsing and Projection Based on Word-Pair Classification
In this paper we describe an intuitionistic method for dependency parsing, where a classifier is used to determine whether a pair of words forms a dependency edge. And we also pro...
