—The importance of introducing distance constraints to data dependencies, such as differential dependencies (DDs) [28], has recently been recognized. The metric distance constrai...
Information retrieval algorithms leverage various collection statistics to improve performance. Because these statistics are often computed on a relatively small evaluation corpus...
Automatic word alignment is a key step in training statistical machine translation systems. Despite much recent work on word alignment methods, alignment accuracy increases often ...
We apply statistical machine translation (SMT) tools to generate novel paraphrases of input sentences in the same language. The system is trained on large volumes of sentence pair...
We wish to model the way in which faces move in video sequences. We represent facial behaviour as a sequence of short actions. Each action is a sample from a statistical model rep...
