Multimodal grammars provide an expressive formalism for multimodal integration and understanding. However, handcrafted multimodal grammars can be brittle with respect to unexpecte...
We describe a method for discovering irregularities in temporal mood patterns appearing in a large corpus of blog posts, and labeling them with a natural language explanation. Sim...
We present and compare two approaches to the task of summarizing evaluative arguments. The first is a sentence extractionbased approach while the second is a language generation-b...
This paper reports the present results of a research on unsupervised Persian morpheme discovery. In this paper we present a method for discovering the morphemes of Persian languag...
This paper addresses the problem of automatically retrieving answers for how-to questions, focusing on those that inquire about the procedure for achieving a specific goal. For su...
We present a new method for detecting and disambiguating named entities in open domain text. A disambiguation SVM kernel is trained to exploit the high coverage and rich structure...
In this paper a novel solution to automatic and unsupervised word sense induction (WSI) is introduced. It represents an instantiation of the `one sense per collocation' obser...
o abstract describes the SmartWeb Ontology-based Annotation system (SOBA). A key feature of SOBA is that all information is extracted and stored with respect to the SmartWeb Integ...

Pipeline computation, in which a task is decomposed into several stages that are solved sequentially, is a common computational strategy in natural language processing. The key pr...
The Natural Language Toolkit is a suite of program modules, data sets and tutorials supporting research and teaching in computational linguistics and natural language processing. ...
