Latent Anaphora Resolution for Cross-Lingual Pronoun Prediction

by Christian Hardmeier, Jörg Tiedemann, Joakim Nivre
"... This paper addresses the task of predicting the correct French translations of third-person sub-ject pronouns in English discourse, a problem that is relevant as a prerequisite for machine translation and that requires anaphora resolu-tion. We present an approach based on neu-ral networks that model ..."

Linguistic Complexity: Locality of Syntactic Dependencies

by Edward Gibson - COGNITION , 1998
"... This paper proposes a new theory of the relationship between the sentence processing mechanism and the available computational resources. This theory -- the Syntactic Prediction Locality Theory (SPLT) -- has two components: an integration cost component and a component for the memory cost associa ..."

Pronoun-Focused MT and Cross-Lingual Pronoun Prediction: Findings of the 2015 DiscoMT Shared Task on Pronoun Translation

by Christian Hardmeier, Preslav Nakov, Sara Stymne, Jörg Tiedemann, Yannick Versley, Mauro Cettolo, Fondazione Bruno Kessler
"... We describe the design, the evaluation setup, and the results of the DiscoMT 2015 shared task, which included two sub-tasks, relevant to both the machine trans-lation (MT) and the discourse communit-ies: (i) pronoun-focused translation, a prac-tical MT task, and (ii) cross-lingual pro-noun predictio ..."

in the pronoun systems of the two languages. Six groups participated in the pronoun-focused translation task and eight groups in the cross-lingual pronoun prediction task. 1

Wrapper Induction for Information Extraction

by Nicholas Kushmerick , 1997
"... The Internet presents numerous sources of useful information---telephone directories, product catalogs, stock quotes, weather forecasts, etc. Recently, many systems have been built that automatically gather and manipulate such information on a user's behalf. However, these resources are usually ..."

Feature-Rich Part-of-Speech Tagging with a Cyclic Dependency Network

by Kristina Toutanova , Dan Klein, Christopher D. Manning, Yoram Singer - IN PROCEEDINGS OF HLT-NAACL , 2003
"... We present a new part-of-speech tagger that demonstrates the following ideas: (i) explicit use of both preceding and following tag contexts via a dependency network representation, (ii) broad use of lexical features, including jointly conditioning on multiple consecutive words, (iii) effective ..."

Eye movements in reading and information processing: 20 years of research

by Keith Rayner - Psychological Bulletin , 1998
"... Recent studies of eye movements in reading and other information processing tasks, such as music reading, typing, visual search, and scene perception, are reviewed. The major emphasis of the review is on reading as a specific example of cognitive processing. Basic topics discussed with respect to re ..."

Naive (Bayes) at Forty: The Independence Assumption in Information Retrieval

by David D. Lewis , 1998
"... The naive Bayes classifier, currently experiencing a renaissance in machine learning, has long been a core technique in information retrieval. We review some of the variations of naive Bayes models used for text retrieval and classification, focusing on the distributional assump- tions made abou ..."

Transformation-Based Error-Driven Learning and Natural Language Processing: A Case Study in Part-of-Speech Tagging

by Eric Brill - Computational Linguistics , 1995
"... this paper, we will describe a simple rule-based approach to automated learning of linguistic knowledge. This approach has been shown for a number of tasks to capture information in a clearer and more direct fashion without a compromise in performance. We present a detailed case study of this learni ..."

Semantic Similarity in a Taxonomy: An Information-Based Measure and its Application to Problems of Ambiguity in Natural Language

by Philip Resnik , 1999
"... This article presents a measure of semantic similarityinanis-a taxonomy based on the notion of shared information content. Experimental evaluation against a benchmark set of human similarity judgments demonstrates that the measure performs better than the traditional edge-counting approach. The a ..."

Cross-Lingual Genre Classification

by unknown authors
"... Classifying text genres across languages can bring the benefits of genre classification to the target language without the costs of manual annotation. This article introduces the first approach to this task, which exploits text features that can be considered stable genre predictors across languages ..."
