Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are powerful statistical models that have found successful applications in Information Extraction (IE). In current approaches to applying HMMs to IE, a...
We present a new method for information retrieval using hidden Markov models HMMs and relate our experience with this system on the TREC-7 ad hoc task. We develop a general framew...
Many approaches to learning classifiers for structured objects (e.g., shapes) use generative models in a Bayesian framework. However, state-of-the-art classifiers for vectorial d...
