Feature Set

We apply a decision tree based approach to pronoun resolution in spoken dialogue. Our system deals with pronouns with NP- and non-NP-antecedents. We present a set of features designed for …...

In our information era, keywords are very useful to information retrieval, text clustering and so on. News is always a domain attracting a large amount of attention. Aiming at news …...

In this paper we present a novel, cus- tomizable IE paradigm that takes advan- tage of predicate-argument structures. We also introduce a new way of automatically identifying predicate argument structures, …...

This paper describes our method based on Support Vector Machines for automatically assigning seman- tic roles to constituents of English sentences. This method employs four different feature sets, one of …...

We consider the impact Active Learning (AL) has on effective and efficient text cor- pus annotation, and report on reduction rates for annotation efforts ranging up until 72%. We also …...

In recent years there has been substantial work on the important problem of coreference res- olution, most of which has concentrated on the development of new models and algo- rithmic …...

This paper proposes two techniques for fast sequential labeling such as part-of-speech (POS) tagging and text chunking. The first technique is a boosting-based al- gorithm that learns rules represented by …...

This paper describes a study on the impact of the original signal (text, speech, visual scene, event) of a text pair on the task of both man- ual and automatic …...

This paper examines the efficacy of the appli- cation of a pre-existing technique in the area of event-event temporal relationship identifi- cation. We attempt to both reproduce the re- sults …...

Approaching temporal link labelling as a classification task has already been ex- plored in several works. However, choos- ing the right feature vectors to build the classification model is still …...

Part-of-speech (POS) taggers can be quite accurate, but for practical use, accuracy often has to be sacrificed for speed. For example, the maintainers of the Stanford tagger (Toutanova et al., …...

AbstractIrony, a creative use of language, has received scarce attention from the computational linguistics research point of view. We propose an automatic system capable of detecting irony with good accuracy …...

AbstractThe purpose of this research is to address the problem of extracting information from travel itineraries and discuss the challenges faced in the process. Business-to-customer emails like booking confirmations and …...

AbstractThe transition-based systems in the past studies propose a series of actions, to build a right-heavy binarized tree for the RST parsing. However, the nodes of the binary-nuclear relations (e.g., …...
