Improved Degraded Document Recognition with Hybrid Modeling Techniques and Character N-Grams
In this paper a robust multifont character recognition system for degraded documents such as photocopy or fax is described. The system is based on Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) usin...

Beyond Log-Linear Models: Boosted Minimum Error Rate Training for N-best Re-ranking
Current re-ranking algorithms for machine translation rely on log-linear models, which have the potential problem of underfitting the training data. We present BoostedMERT, a nove...
