We study the problem of topic segmentation of manually transcribed speech in order to facilitate information extraction from dialogs. Our approach is based on a combination of mul...
Statistical approaches to language learning typically focus on either short-range syntactic dependencies or long-range semantic dependencies between words. We present a generative...
