We propose a novel Co-Training method for statistical parsing. The algorithm takes as input a small corpus (9695 sentences) annotated with parse trees, a dictionary of possible le...
We address the text-to-text generation problem of sentence-level paraphrasing — a phenomenon distinct from and more difficult than word- or phrase-level paraphrasing. Our appro...
Following the recent adoption by the machine translation community of automatic evaluation using the BLEU/NIST scoring process, we conduct an in-depth study of a similar idea for ...
Human tutors detect and respond to student emotional states, but current machine tutors do not. Our preliminary machine learning experiments involving transcription, emotion annot...
Story link detection has been regarded as a core technology for other Topic Detection and Tracking tasks such as new event detection. In this paper we analyze story link detection...
