Porting a Natural Language Processing (NLP) system to a new domain remains one of the bottlenecks in syntactic parsing, because of the amount of effort required to fix gaps in the...
In Natural Language Processing (NLP), the quality of a system depends to a great extent on the quality of the linguistic resources it uses. Due to the unpredictable character of v...
We analyze estimation methods for DataOriented Parsing, as well as the theoretical criteria used to evaluate them. We show that all current estimation methods are inconsistent in ...
In this paper we propose a new approach to the description of Arabic morphology using 2-tape finite state transducers, based on a particular and systematic use of the operation of ...
We present a practical co-training method for bootstrapping statistical parsers using a small amount of manually parsed training material and a much larger pool of raw sentences. ...
