The distortion cost function used in Mosesstyle machine translation systems has two flaws. First, it does not estimate the future cost of known required moves, thus increasing sea...

We present a novel discriminative training algorithm for n-gram language models for use in large vocabulary continuous speech recognition. The algorithm uses large margin estimati...
In this study, we propose increasing discriminative power on the maximum a posteriori (MAP)-based mapping function estimation for acoustic model adaptation. Based on the effective...
Tree based translation models are a compelling means of integrating linguistic information into machine translation. Syntax can inform lexical selection and reordering choices and...
Research on linear text segmentation has been an on-going focus in NLP for the last decade, and it has great potential for a wide range of applications such as document summarizati...
