This paper proposes a probabilistic model for associative anaphora resolution in Japanese. Associative anaphora is a type of bridging anaphora, in which the anaphor and its antece...
Sentiment analysis often relies on a semantic orientation lexicon of positive and negative words. A number of approaches have been proposed for creating such lexicons, but they te...
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...
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...
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. ...
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...
Binarization of Synchronous Context Free Grammars (SCFG) is essential for achieving polynomial time complexity of decoding for SCFG parsing based machine translation systems. In t...

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...
