We show that the standard beam-search algorithm can be used as an efficient decoder for the global linear model of Zhang and Clark (2008) for joint word segmentation and POS-taggi...
Optical lithography is a critical step in the semiconductor manufacturing process, and one key problem is the design of the photomask for a particular circuit pattern, given the o...
This paper introduces a new algorithm to parse discourse within the framework of Rhetorical Structure Theory (RST). Our method is based on recent advances in the field of statisti...
In this paper we address the problem of identifying a broad range of term variations in Japanese web search queries, where these variations pose a particularly thorny problem due ...
Our goal is to automatically identify which species of bird is present in an audio recording using supervised learning. Devising effective algorithms for bird species classificati...
