Mortgage-Backed-Securities (MBS), as the largest investment class of fixed income securities, have always been hard to price. Because of the following reasons, normal numerical me...
We introduce factored language models (FLMs) and generalized parallel backoff (GPB). An FLM represents words as bundles of features (e.g., morphological classes, stems, data-drive...
The String Barcoding (SBC) problem, introduced by Rash and Gusfield (RECOMB, 2002), consists in finding a minimum set of substrings that can be used to distinguish between all mem...
We propose a domain specific model for statistical machine translation. It is wellknown that domain specific language models perform well in automatic speech recognition. We show ...
Separable convex optimization problems with linear ascending inequality and equality constraints are addressed in this paper. An algorithm that explicitly characterizes the optimum...
