This paper explores the use of the homotopy method for training a semi-supervised Hidden Markov Model (HMM) used for sequence labeling. We provide a novel polynomial-time algorith...
Semi-supervised learning has emerged as a popular framework for improving modeling accuracy while controlling labeling cost. Based on an extension of stochastic composite likeliho...

Using unlabeled data to help supervised learning has become an increasingly attractive methodology and proven to be effective in many applications. This paper applies semi-supervi...
This paper presents a semi-supervised training method for linear-chain conditional random fields that makes use of labeled features rather than labeled instances. This is accompli...
We consider the general problem of learning from both labeled and unlabeled data. Given a set of data points, only a few of them are labeled, and the remaining points are unlabele...
