Abstract. In this paper, we propose an unsupervised color image segmentation scheme using homotopy continuation method and Compound Markov Random Field (CMRF) model. The proposed s...
This paper presents a comparative study of five parameter estimation algorithms on four NLP tasks. Three of the five algorithms are well-known in the computational linguistics com...

Automatic segmentation is an important technology for both automatic speech recognition and automatic speech understanding. In meetings, participants typically vocalize for only a ...
We address the problem of extracting bilingual chunk pairs from parallel text to create training sets for statistical machine translation. We formulate the problem in terms of a s...
While phrase-based statistical machine translation systems currently deliver state-of-theart performance, they remain weak on word order changes. Current phrase reordering models ...
