In previous research in automatic verb classification, syntactic features have proved the most useful features, although manual classifications rely heavily on semantic features. ...
Neural networks are a useful alternative to Gaussian mixture models for acoustic modeling; however, training multilayer networks involves a difficult, nonconvex optimization that...
We exploit sketch techniques, especially the Count-Min sketch, a memory, and time efficient framework which approximates the frequency of a word pair in the corpus without explic...
The world wide web is a natural setting for cross-lingual information retrieval. The European Union is a typical example of a multilingual scenario, where multiple users have to de...
In this paper we investigate the main linguistic phenomena that can make texts complex and how they could be simplified. We focus on a corpus analysis of simple account texts avai...
