To tackle the vocabulary problem in conversational systems, previous work has applied unsupervised learning approaches on co-occurring speech and eye gaze during interaction to au...
Statistical language models play a major role in current speech recognition systems. Most of these models have focussed on relatively local interactions between words. Recently, h...
This paper presents a comparative study of five parameter estimation algorithms on four NLP tasks. Three of the five algorithms are well-known in the computational linguistics com...

This paper investigates the impact of automatic sentence segmentation on speech summarization using the ICSI meeting corpus. We use a hidden Markov model (HMM) for sentence segmen...
We describe our efforts to use rule-based programming to produce a model of Jumbo, a run-time program generation (RTPG) system for Java. Jumbo incorporates RTPG following the simp...
