Multistage residual vector quantizers (RVQ) with optimal direct sum decoder codebooks have been successfully designed and implemented for data compression. Due to its multistage s...
There are many local and greedy algorithms for energy minimization over Markov Random Field (MRF) such as iterated condition mode (ICM) and various gradient descent methods. Local ...
In recent years, extraction of temporal relations for events that express sentiments has drawn great attention of the Natural Language Processing (NLP) research communities. In thi...
Background: Interest is growing in the application of syntactic parsers to natural language processing problems in biology, but assessing their performance is difficult because di...
One may need to build a statistical parser for a new language, using only a very small labeled treebank together with raw text. We argue that bootstrapping a parser is most promis...
