We propose a general method for reranker construction which targets choosing the candidate with the least expected loss, rather than the most probable candidate. Different approac...
We describe and experimentally evaluate a system, FeasPar, that learns parsing spontaneous speech. To train and run FeasPar (Feature Structure Parser), only limited handmodeled kn...
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...

In this paper, we present a chunk based partial parsing system for spontaneous, conversational speech in unrestricted domains. We show that the chunk parses produced by this parsi...
The current research efforts in the field of video parsing and analysis are mainly focused on the use of pictorial information, while neglecting an important supplementary source ...
