Fast Translation Rule Matching for Syntax-based Statistical Machine Translation
In a linguistically-motivated syntax-based translation system, the entire translation process is normally carried out in two steps, translation rule matching and target sentence d...

Chinese Semantic Role Labeling with Shallow Parsing
Most existing systems for Chinese Semantic Role Labeling (SRL) make use of full syntactic parses. In this paper, we evaluate SRL methods that take partial parses as inputs. We fir...

Reverse Engineering of Tree Kernel Feature Spaces
We present a framework to extract the most important features (tree fragments) from a Tree Kernel (TK) space according to their importance in the target kernelbased machine, e.g. ...

Bayesian Learning of Phrasal Tree-to-String Templates
We examine the problem of overcoming noisy word-level alignments when learning tree-to-string translation rules. Our approach introduces new rules, and reestimates rule probabilit...

Matching Reviews to Objects using a Language Model
We develop a general method to match unstructured text reviews to a structured list of objects. For this, we propose a language model for generating reviews that incorporates a de...
