We describe work on automatically assigning labels to books using user-defined tags as the label set. Using supervised learning and exploring both binary and multiclass classifica...
This paper presents a freely available, and flexible Wizard of Oz environment for rapid prototyping. The system is designed to investigate the required features of a dialog system...
While conditional random fields (CRFs) have been applied successfully in a variety of domains, their training remains a challenging task. In this paper, we introduce a novel trai...
