The psycholinguistic literature provides evidence for syntactic priming, i.e., the tendency to repeat structures. This paper describes a method for incorporating priming into an i...
Wc develop a l)ata-Oricntcd Parsing (DOP) model based on the syntactic representations of Lexicalf;unctional Grammar (LFG). We start by summarizing the original DOP model for tree...
We investigate the task of unsupervised constituency parsing from bilingual parallel corpora. Our goal is to use bilingual cues to learn improved parsing models for each language ...
This paper considers approaches which rerank the output of an existing probabilistic parser. The base parser produces a set of candidate parses for each input sentence, with assoc...
This paper proposes a general probabilistic framework for shape-based modeling and classification of waveform data. A segmental hidden Markov model (HMM) is used to characterize w...
