Exploiting Multi-Word Units in History-Based Probabilistic Generation
We present a simple history-based model for sentence generation from LFG f-structures, which improves on the accuracy of previous models by breaking down PCFG independence assumpt...

Fast and Robust Multilingual Dependency Parsing with a Generative Latent Variable Model
We use a generative history-based model to predict the most likely derivation of a dependency parse. Our probabilistic model is based on Incremental Sigmoid Belief Networks, a rec...
