Variational EM has become a popular technique in probabilistic NLP with hidden variables. Commonly, for computational tractability, we make strong independence assumptions, such a...
We describe our experiments with training algorithms for tree-to-tree synchronous tree-substitution grammar (STSG) for monolingual translation tasks such as sentence compression a...
In this paper, we propose a novel dependency-based bracketing transduction grammar for statistical machine translation, which converts a source sentence into a target dependency t...

Abstract. This paper revisits a problem of the evaluation of computational grammatical inference (GI) systems and discusses what role complexity measures can play for the assessmen...
We present an approach to multilingual grammar induction that exploits a phylogeny-structured model of parameter drift. Our method does not require any translated texts or token-l...
