Historical linguistics aims at inferring the most likely language phylogenetic tree starting from information concerning the evolutionary relatedness of languages. The available i...
Statistical parsers have become increasingly accurate, to the point where they are useful in many natural language applications. However, estimating parsing accuracy on a wide var...
In recent years tree kernels have been proposed for the automatic learning of natural language applications. Unfortunately, they show (a) an inherent super linear complexity and (...
The major difficulty for large vocabulary sign language or gesture recognition lies in the huge search space due to a variety of recognized classes. How to reduce the recognition ...
With more and more natural language text stored in databases, handling respective query predicates becomes very important. Optimizing queries with predicates includes (sub)string ...
