We propose a novel objective function for discriminatively tuning log-linear machine translation models. Our objective explicitly optimizes the BLEU score of expected n-gram count...
The focus of this paper is on crafting a new visual language for attribute grammars (AGs), and on the development of the associated programming environment. We present a solution f...
Abstract. This paper introduces matching logic, a novel framework for defining axiomatic semantics for programming languages, inspired from operational semantics. Matching logic sp...
Near-synonyms are useful knowledge resources for many natural language applications such as query expansion for information retrieval (IR) and paraphrasing for text generation. Ho...
Humans are very good at judging the strength of relationships between two terms, a task which, if it can be automated, would be useful in a range of applications. Systems attempti...
