We consider computational issues in combining logical knowledge bases represented by their characteristic models; in particular, we study taking their logical intersection. We pre...
This paper discusses the interpretation of nominalizations in domain independent wide-coverage text. We present a statistical model which interprets nominalizations based on the c...
We present an empirical study of the applicability of Probabilistic Lexicalized Tree Insertion Grammars (PLTIG), a lexicalized counterpart to Probabilistic Context-Free Grammars (...
The PRODIGY system is based on bidirectional planning, which is a combination of goal-directed backward chaining with simulation of plan execution. Experiments have demonstrated t...
We tackle the problem of object recognition using a Bayesian approach. A marked point process [1] is used as a prior model for the (unknown number of) objects. A sample is generat...
