A Dirichlet-Smoothed Bigram Model for Retrieving Spontaneous Speech
We present two simple but effective smoothing techniqes for the standard language model (LM) approach to information retrieval [12]. First, we extend the unigram Dirichlet smoothi...

Hierarchical Pitman-Yor Language Model for Machine Translation
The hierarchical Pitman-Yor process-based smoothing method applied to language model was proposed by Goldwater and by Teh; the performance of this smoothing method is shown compara...

Using a Smoothing Maximum Entropy Model for Chinese Nominal Entity Tagging
This paper treats nominal entity tagging as a six-way (five categories plus nonentity) classification problem and applies a smoothing maximum entropy (ME) model with a Gaussian pr...

Bayesian extension to the language model for ad hoc information retrieval
We propose a Bayesian extension to the ad-hoc Language Model. Many smoothed estimators used for the multinomial query model in ad-hoc Language Models (including Laplace and Bayes-...

Neural network based language models for highly inflective languages
Speech recognition of inflectional and morphologically rich languages like Czech is currently quite a challenging task, because simple n-gram techniques are unable to capture impo...
