Deterministic parsing guided by treebankinduced classifiers has emerged as a simple and efficient alternative to more complex models for data-driven parsing. We present a systemat...
In the general classification context the recourse to the so-called Bayes decision rule requires to estimate the class conditional probability density functions. In this paper we p...
Treebank annotation is a labor-intensive and time-consuming task. In this paper, we show that a simple statistical ranking model can significantly improve treebanking efficiency b...
Accurate prediction of demographic attributes from social media and other informal online content is valuable for marketing, personalization, and legal investigation. This paper d...

Conventional contour tracking algorithms with level set often use generative models to construct the energy function. For tracking through cluttered and noisy background, however,...
