Language Models for Image Captioning: The Quirks and What Works
Two recent approaches have achieved state-of-the-art results in image captioning. The first uses a pipelined process where a set of candidate words is generated by a convolutiona...

Frame-Semantic Role Labeling with Heterogeneous Annotations
We consider the task of identifying and labeling the semantic arguments of a predicate that evokes a FrameNet frame. This task is challenging because there are only a few thousand...
