Offline handwriting recognition--the transcription of images of handwritten text--is an interesting task, in that it combines computer vision with sequence learning. In most syste...
Deterministic parsing guided by treebankinduced classifiers has emerged as a simple and efficient alternative to more complex models for data-driven parsing. We present a systemat...
Paraphrase recognition is a critical step for natural language interpretation. Accordingly, many NLP applications would benefit from high coverage knowledge bases of paraphrases. ...
Abstract. We introduce a new class of recurrent, truly sequential SVM-like devices with internal adaptive states, trained by a novel method called EVOlution of systems with KErnel-...
Many machine learning methods have recently been applied to natural language processing tasks. Among them, the Winnow algorithm has been argued to be particularly suitable for NLP...
