A Maximum Entropy/Minimum Divergence Translation Model
I describe two methods for incorporating information about the relative positions of bilingual word pairs into a Maximum Entropy/Minimum Divergence translation model. The better o...

Adaptation of maximum entropy capitalizer: Little data can help a lot
A novel technique for maximum "a posteriori" (MAP) adaptation of maximum entropy (MaxEnt) and maximum entropy Markov models (MEMM) is presented. The technique is applied...

Entire Relaxation Path for Maximum Entropy Problems
We discuss and analyze the problem of finding a distribution that minimizes the relative entropy to a prior distribution while satisfying max-norm constraints with respect to an ...

Hierarchical maximum entropy density estimation
We study the problem of simultaneously estimating several densities where the datasets are organized into overlapping groups, such as a hierarchy. For this problem, we propose a m...

Maximum Entropy Markov Models for Information Extraction and Segmentation
Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are a powerful probabilistic tool for modeling sequential data, and have been applied with success to many text-related tasks, such as part-of-speech t...
