We investigate the optimal LM treatment of abundant filled pauses (FP) in spontaneous monologues of a professional dictation task. Questions addressed here are (1) how to deal wi...
We present a neural network method for inducing representations of parse histories and using these history representations to estimate the probabilities needed by a statistical le...
We present a simple method for language independent and task independent text categorization learning, based on character-level n-gram language models. Our approach uses simple in...
We combine a surface based approach to discourse parsing with an explicit rhetorical grammar in order to efficiently construct an underspecified representation of possible discour...
In this paper, the automatic labeling of semantic roles in a sentence is considered as a chunking task. We define a semantic chunk as the sequence of words that fills a semantic...
We describe our approach to the construction and evaluation of a large-scale database called “CatVar” which contains categorial variations of English lexemes. Due to the preva...
In this paper we present ONTOSCORE, a system for scoring sets of concepts on the basis of an ontology. We apply our system to the task of scoring alternative speech recognition hy...
