Extracting tree transducer rules for syntactic MT systems can be hindered by word alignment errors that violate syntactic correspondences. We propose a novel model for unsupervise...
This work introduces a model free approach to sentence compression, which grew out of ideas from Nomoto (2008), and examines how it compares to a state-of-art model intensive appr...
We use the Edit distance with Moves on words and trees and say that two regular (tree) languages are -close if every word (tree) of one language is -close to the other. A transduc...
We describe a Bayesian inference algorithm that can be used to train any cascade of weighted finite-state transducers on end-toend data. We also investigate the problem of automat...

Closing the semantic gap in content based image retrieval (CBIR) basically requires the knowledge of the user's intention which is usually translated into a sequence of quest...
