Phrase-Based Statistical Language Generation Using Graphical Models and Active Learning
Most previous work on trainable language generation has focused on two paradigms: (a) using a statistical model to rank a set of generated utterances, or (b) using statistics to i...

Using Smaller Constituents Rather Than Sentences in Active Learning for Japanese Dependency Parsing
We investigate active learning methods for Japanese dependency parsing. We propose active learning methods of using partial dependency relations in a given sentence for parsing an...

Dependency Parsing and Projection Based on Word-Pair Classification
In this paper we describe an intuitionistic method for dependency parsing, where a classifier is used to determine whether a pair of words forms a dependency edge. And we also pro...
