We present a technique that improves the efficiency of word-lattice parsing as used in speech recognition language modeling. Our technique applies a probabilistic parser iterative...
A crucial step toward the goal of automatic extraction of propositional information from natural language text is the identification of semantic relations between constituents in ...
This paper presents a model for generating prosodically appropriate synthesized responses to database queries using Combinatory Categorial Grammar (CCG - cf. [22]), a formalism wh...
We present here the current prototype of the text understanding system HELENE. The objective of this system is to achieve a deep understanding of small reports dealing with a rest...
This paper describes a shallow parsing formalism aiming at machine translation between closely related languages. The formalism allows to write grammar rules helping to (partially...
