We present a novel algorithm for multilingual dependency parsing that uses annotations from a diverse set of source languages to parse a new unannotated language. Our motivation i...
The paper focuses on developing effective importance sampling algorithms for mixed probabilistic and deterministic graphical models. The use of importance sampling in such graphi...
We consider a model of random trees similar to the split trees of Devroye [30] in which a set of items is recursively partitioned. Our model allows for more flexibility in the cho...
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 propose a framework for modeling, analysis, annotation and synthesis of multi-modal dance performances. We analyze correlations between music features and dance figure labels ...
