Maximum entropy models for speech confidence estimation
In this work we implement a confidence estimation system based on a Naive Bayes classifier, by using the maximum entropy paradigm. The model takes information from various sourc...

Competitive generative models with structure learning for NLP classification tasks
In this paper we show that generative models are competitive with and sometimes superior to discriminative models, when both kinds of models are allowed to learn structures that a...

Predicting Protective Linear B-Cell Epitopes Using Evolutionary Information
Mapping B-cell epitopes plays an important role in vaccine design, immunodiagnostic tests, and antibody production. Because the experimental determination of B-cell epitopes is ti...
