This paper proposes an unsupervised learning model for classifying named entities. This model uses a training set, built automatically by means of a small-scale named entity dicti...
Distributed hash table (DHT) systems are an important class of peer-to-peer routing infrastructures. They enable scalable wide-area storage and retrieval of information, and will ...
The NameVoyager, a web-based visualization of historical trends in baby naming, has proven remarkably popular. This paper discusses the display techniques used for smooth visual e...
Abstract. We investigate a category theoretic model where both “variables” and “names”, usually viewed as separate notions, are particular cases of the more general notion ...
This paper presents a maximum entropy-based named entity recognizer (NER). It differs from previous machine learning-based NERs in that it uses information from the whole document...
