The paper presents an approach for constructing a weighted bilingual dictionary of inflectional forms using as input data a traditional bilingual dictionary, and not parallel corp...
This paper proposes a novel maximum entropy based rule selection (MERS) model for syntax-based statistical machine translation (SMT). The MERS model combines local contextual info...
Semi-supervised methods use unlabeled data in addition to labeled data to construct predictors. While existing semi-supervised methods have shown some promising empirical performa...
In this paper a novel algorithm for raster to vector conversion is presented. The technique is mainly devoted to vectorize digital picture maintaining an high degree of photoreali...
