This paper proposes a knowledge representation model and a logic proving setting with axioms on demand successfully used for recognizing textual entailments. It also details a lex...
Certain distinctions made in the lexicon of one language may be redundant when translating into another language. We quantify redundancy among source types by the similarity of th...
The integration of sophisticated inference-based techniques into natural language processing applications first requires a reliable method of encoding the predicate-argument struc...
Japanese case markers, which indicate the grammatical relation of the complement NP to the predicate, often pose challenges to the generation of Japanese text, be it done by a for...
This paper proposes a framework for training Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) to optimize multivariate evaluation measures, including non-linear measures such as F-score. Our prop...
In this paper we investigate ChineseEnglish name transliteration using comparable corpora, corpora where texts in the two languages deal in some of the same topics -- and therefor...
This paper focuses on the use of advanced techniques of text analysis as support for collocation extraction. A hybrid system is presented that combines statistical methods and mul...
This paper presents the particular use of "Jibiki" (Papillon's web server development platform) for the LexALP1 project. LexALP's goal is to harmonise the term...
We present a novel hybrid approach for Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) which makes use of a relational formalism to represent instances and background knowledge. It is built using...
We describe a generic framework for integrating various stochastic models of discourse coherence in a manner that takes advantage of their individual strengths. An integral part o...
