Lasso is a regularization method for parameter estimation in linear models. It optimizes the model parameters with respect to a loss function subject to model complexities. This p...
We claim that existing specification languages for tree based grammars fail to adequately support identifier managment. We then show that XMG (eXtensible MetaGrammar) provides a s...
Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are powerful statistical models that have found successful applications in Information Extraction (IE). In current approaches to applying HMMs to IE, a...
Statistical language models should improve as the size of the n-grams increases from 3 to 5 or higher. However, the number of parameters and calculations, and the storage requirem...
