Design problems involve issues of stylistic preference and flexible standards of success; human designers often proceed by intuition and are unaware of following any strict rule-b...
In this paper, we investigate the role of a biomedical dataset on the classification accuracy of an algorithm. We quantify the complexity of a biomedical dataset using five complex...
We describe two corpora of question and answer pairs collected for complex, open-domain Question Answering (QA) to enable answer classification and re-ranking experiments. We deli...
We present a probabilistic model of diachronic phonology in which individual word forms undergo stochastic edits along the branches of a phylogenetic tree. Our approach allows us ...
We describe our experiments using the DeSR parser in the multilingual and domain adaptation tracks of the CoNLL 2007 shared task. DeSR implements an incremental deterministic Shif...
