Minimum Error Rate Training is the algorithm for log-linear model parameter training most used in state-of-the-art Statistical Machine Translation systems. In its original formula...
RankSVM (Herbrich et al, 2000; Joachims, 2002) is a pairwise method for designing ranking models. SVMLight is the only publicly available software for RankSVM. It is slow and, due ...
A system making optimal use of available information in incremental language comprehension might be expected to use linguistic knowledge together with current input to revise beli...
This paper describes an algorithm for exact decoding of phrase-based translation models, based on Lagrangian relaxation. The method recovers exact solutions, with certificates of...
Declarative networking is a programming methodology that enables developers to concisely specify network protocols and services, and directly compile these specifications into a d...
