We introduce a new perceptron-based discriminative learning algorithm for labeling structured data such as sequences, trees, and graphs. Since it is fully kernelized and uses poin...
We describe ParsCit, a freely available, open-source implementation of a reference string parsing package. At the core of ParsCit is a trained conditional random field (CRF) model...
Interruptions occur frequently in spontaneous conversations, and they are often associated with changes in the flow of conversation. Predicting interruption is essential in the d...
This paper shows (i) improvements over state-of-the-art local feature recognition systems, (ii) how to formulate principled models for automatic local feature selection in object c...
In this paper, we present an overview of generalized expectation criteria (GE), a simple, robust, scalable method for semi-supervised training using weakly-labeled data. GE fits m...
