We compare and contrast two different models for detecting sentence-like units in continuous speech. The first approach uses hidden Markov sequence models based on N-grams and maximum likeli- hood estimation, …...

This paper introduces a new method for iden- tifying named-entity (NE) transliterations in bilingual corpora. Recent works have shown the advantage of discriminative approaches to transliteration: given two strings (ws, …...

In this paper, we present a discrimina- tive approach for reranking discourse trees generated by an existing probabilistic dis- course parser. The reranker relies on tree kernels (TKs) to capture …...

AbstractUnsupervised relation extraction (URE) extracts relations between named entities from raw text without manually-labelled data and existing knowledge bases (KBs). URE methods can be categorised into generative and discriminative approaches, …...
