In this work, a generalized method for learning from sequence of unlabelled data points based on unsupervised order-preserving regression is proposed. Sequence learning is a funda...
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...
This paper describes a new program, correct, which takes words rejected by the Unix spell program, proposes a list of candidate corrections, and sorts them by probability. The pro...
