Offline handwriting recognition--the transcription of images of handwritten text--is an interesting task, in that it combines computer vision with sequence learning. In most syste...
In this paper, we present a method that automatically constructs a Named Entity (NE) tagged corpus from the web to be used for learning of Named Entity Recognition systems. We use...
In this paper, we present a new approach for word sense disambiguation (WSD) using an exemplar-based learning algorithm. This approach integrates a diverse set of knowledge source...
Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is a widely-used tool for obtaining low-rank approximations of nonnegative data such as digital images, audio signals, textual data, financ...
Recruitment learning in hierarchies is an inherently unstable process (Valiant, 1994). This paper presents conditions on parameters for a feedforward network to ensure stable recru...
