LingPipe for 99.99 % Recall 1 LingPipe for 99.99 % Recall of Gene Mentions (2008)
Text data mining over biomedical research literature is a needle-in-a-haystack problem. We contend that first-best methods performing at 90 % F-measure are insufficient, especially given that...

NLP-III PROJECT RECOGNIZING CARELESS SPEECH (2007)
Laura June Mayfield, Nlp-iii Instructor, Bob Carpenter
Careless speech is a problem for speech recognition. Spoken quickly, strings of words take on a form that is not well represented by concatenations of canonical phonetic transcriptions; fast speech...

Head-Driven Parsing for Word Lattices (2004)
Christopher Collins, Bob Carpenter, Gerald Penn
We present the first application of the head-driven statistical parsing model of Collins (1999) as a simultaneous language model and parser for largevocabulary speech recognition. The model is...

Probabilistic Parsing Using Left Corner Language Models (1997)
Manning, Christopher D., Carpenter, Bob
We introduce a novel parser based on a probabilistic version of a left-corner parser. The left-corner strategy is attractive because rule probabilities can be conditioned on both top-down goals and...

The Turing-Completeness of Multimodal Categorial Grammars (1996)
this paper, we demonstrate that the multimodal categorial grammars are in fact Turing-complete in their weak generative capacity. The result follows from a straightforward reduction of generalized...

Categorial Grammars, Lexical Rules and the English Predicative (1995)
this paper, we will study the possibilities for applying lexical rules to the analysis of English syntax, and in particular the structure of the verb phrase. We will develop a lexicon whose empirical...

Quantification And Scoping: A Deductive Account

this paper, we argue that the grammatical scopings of quantifiers should be treated by deductive methods. To this end, we propose a type-theoretic, categorial logic. This logic captures the broad...
