We present a system that finds short definitions of terms on Web pages. It employs a Maximum Entropy classifier, but it is trained on automatically generated examples; hence, it i...
In this paper, we propose a novel class of graphs, the tripartite directed acyclic graphs (tDAGs), to model first-order rule feature spaces for sentence pair classification. We in...
This paper presents a supervised method for resolving metonymies. We enhance a commonly used feature set with features extracted based on collocation information from corpora, gen...
A large body of recent research has been investigating the acquisition and application of applied inference knowledge. Such knowledge may be typically captured as entailment rules...
We present an inexact search algorithm for the problem of predicting a two-layered dependency graph. The algorithm is based on a k-best version of the standard cubictime search al...
