Abstract. Stochastic deterministic finite automata have been introduced and are used in a variety of settings. We use them to model musical styles: a same automaton can be used to...
Our research is motivated by the observation that NLP systems frequently mislabel passive voice verb phrases as being in the active voice when there is no auxiliary verb (e.g., &q...
We present a new approach for mapping natural language sentences to their formal meaning representations using stringkernel-based classifiers. Our system learns these classifiers ...
Grammatical relationships are an important level of natural language processing. We present a trainable approach to find these relationships through transformation sequences and-e...
We present a new approach to learning a semantic parser (a system that maps natural language sentences into logical form). Unlike previous methods, it exploits an existing syntact...
