Many statistical translation models can be regarded as weighted logical deduction. Under this paradigm, we use weights from the expectation semiring (Eisner, 2002), to compute fir...
This paper shows that discriminative reranking with an averaged perceptron model yields substantial improvements in realization quality with CCG. The paper confirms the utility of...
Applying statistical parsers developed for English to languages with freer wordorder has turned out to be harder than expected. This paper investigates the adequacy of different s...
Recent syntactic extensions of statistical translation models work with a synchronous context-free or tree-substitution grammar extracted from an automatically parsed parallel cor...
The ambiguity of person names in the Web has become a new area of interest for NLP researchers. This challenging problem has been formulated as the task of clustering Web search r...
