In this paper we address the issue of automatically assigning information status to discourse entities. Using an annotated corpus of conversational English and exploiting morpho-s...
We present the Conformal Embedding Analysis (CEA) for feature extraction and dimensionality reduction. Incorporating both conformal mapping and discriminating analysis, CEA projec...
