Web-Based Question Answering: A Decision-Making Perspective
David Azari, Eric J. Horvitz, Susan Dumais +1
We describe an investigation of the use of probabilistic models and cost-benefit analyses to guide resource-intensive procedures used by a Web-based question answering system. We f…
Finding consensus in speech recognition: word error minimization and other applications of confusion networks
L. Mangu, E. Brill, A. Stolcke
We describe a new framework for distilling information from word lattices to improve the accuracy of speech recognition and obtain a more perspicuous representation of a set of alt…
Bagging and Boosting a Treebank Parser
John C. Henderson, Eric Brill
Bagging and boosting, two effective machine learning techniques, are applied to natural language parsing. Experiments using these techniques with a trainable statistical parser are…
A Rule-Based Approach To Prepositional Phrase Attachment Disambiguation
Eric Brill, Philip Resnik
In this paper, we describe a new corpus-based approach to prepositional phrase attachment disambiguation, and present results comparing performance of this algorithm with other cor…
Some Advances in Transformation-Based Part of Speech Tagging
Eric Brill
Most recent research in trainable part of speech taggers has explored stochastic tagging. While these taggers obtain high accuracy, linguistic information is captured indirectly, t…
