An Entropic Estimator for Structure Discovery
We introduce a novel framework for simultaneous structure and parameter learning in hidden-variable conditional probability models, based on an entropic prior and a solution for i...

Expectation Maximization and Posterior Constraints
The expectation maximization (EM) algorithm is a widely used maximum likelihood estimation procedure for statistical models when the values of some of the variables in the model a...

On the collective classification of email "speech acts"
We consider classification of email messages as to whether or not they contain certain “email acts”, such as a request or a commitment. We show that exploiting the sequential ...

Domain Adaptation for Statistical Classifiers
The most basic assumption used in statistical learning theory is that training data and test data are drawn from the same underlying distribution. Unfortunately, in many applicati...

Unsupervised estimation for noisy-channel models
Shannon's Noisy-Channel model, which describes how a corrupted message might be reconstructed, has been the corner stone for much work in statistical language and speech proc...
