In this paper we describe and evaluate a Question Answering (QA) system that goes beyond answering factoid questions. Our approach to QA assumes no restrictions on the type of que...
Abstract This paper describes a hybrid statistical and knowledge-based inforQ1 mation extraction model, able to extract entities and relations at the sentence level. The model atte...
The selection of valuable features is crucial in pattern recognition. In this paper we deal with the issue that part of features originate from directional instead of common linea...
We describe experiments with a Naive Bayes text classifier in the context of anti-spam E-mail filtering, using two different statistical event models: a multi-variate Bernoulli ...
Discrete-event simulation models typically have stochastic components that mimic the probabilistic nature of the system under consideration. Successful input modeling requires a c...
