We introduce a probabilistic noisychannel model for question answering and we show how it can be exploited in the context of an end-to-end QA system. Our noisy-channel system outp...
This paper describes the LT NSL system (McKelvie et al, 1996), an architecture for writing corpus processing tools. This system is then compared with two other systems which addre...
Database archiving is important for the retrieval of old versions of a database and for temporal queries over the history of data. We demonstrate XArch, a management system for ma...
