Relevance evaluation is an essential part of the development and maintenance of information retrieval systems. Yet traditional evaluation approaches have several limitations; in p...
We consider here the problem of Base Noun Phrase translation. We propose a new method to perform the task. For a given Base NP, we first search its translation candidates from the...
We develop a methodology for evaluating a decision strategy generated by a stochastic optimization model. The methodology is based on a pilot study in which we estimate the distri...
