We describe a novel simple and highly scalable semi-supervised method called Word-Class Distribution Learning (WCDL), and apply it the task of information extraction (IE) by utili...

Supervised learning techniques for text classi cation often require a large number of labeled examples to learn accurately. One way to reduce the amountoflabeled datarequired is t...
Current hidden Markov acoustic modeling for large vocabulary continuous speech recognition (LVCSR) relies on the availability of abundant labeled transcriptions. Given that speech...
We study the potential benefits to classification prediction that arise from having access to unlabeled samples. We compare learning in the semi-supervised model to the standard, ...
This paper explores the use of the homotopy method for training a semi-supervised Hidden Markov Model (HMM) used for sequence labeling. We provide a novel polynomial-time algorith...
