We consider the problem of predicting the surface pronunciations of a word in conversational speech, using a model of pronunciation variation based on articulatory features. We bu...
This paper examines the road train concept as a new alternative in long-distance freight traffic. The design of such a system is a difficult task since many different and conflicti...
We argue that some of the computational complexity associated with estimation of stochastic attributevalue grammars can be reduced by training upon an informative subset of the fu...
We describe a very simple technique for discriminatively training a spam filter. Our results on the TREC Enron spam corpus would have been the best for the Ham at .1% measure, and...
Collaborative Filtering (CF) requires user-rated training examples for statistical inference about the preferences of new users. Active learning strategies identify the most infor...
