The role of HG in the analysis of temporal iteration and interaural correlation
Multi-Instance Multi-Label Learning
In this paper, we propose the MIML (Multi-Instance Multi-Label learning)
framework where an example is described by multiple instances and associated
with multiple class labels. Compared to traditional learning frameworks, the
MIML framework is more convenient and natural for representing complicated
objects which have multiple semantic meanings. To learn from MIML examples, we
propose the MimlBoost and MimlSvm algorithms based on a simple degeneration
strategy, and experiments show that solving problems involving complicated
objects with multiple semantic meanings in the MIML framework can lead to good
performance. Considering that the degeneration process may lose information, we
propose the D-MimlSvm algorithm which tackles MIML problems directly in a
regularization framework. Moreover, we show that even when we do not have
access to the real objects and thus cannot capture more information from real
objects by using the MIML representation, MIML is still useful. We propose the
InsDif and SubCod algorithms. InsDif works by transforming single-instances
into the MIML representation for learning, while SubCod works by transforming
single-label examples into the MIML representation for learning. Experiments
show that in some tasks they are able to achieve better performance than
learning the single-instances or single-label examples directly.Comment: 64 pages, 10 figures; Artificial Intelligence, 201
Knowledge Expansion of a Statistical Machine Translation System using Morphological Resources
Translation capability of a Phrase-Based Statistical Machine Translation (PBSMT) system mostly depends on parallel data and phrases that are not present in the training data are not correctly translated. This paper describes a method that efficiently expands the existing knowledge of a PBSMT system without adding more parallel data but using external morphological resources. A set of new phrase associations is added to translation and reordering models; each of them corresponds to a morphological variation of the source/target/both phrases of an existing association. New associations are generated using a string similarity score based on morphosyntactic information. We tested our approach on En-Fr and Fr-En translations and results showed improvements of the performance in terms of automatic scores (BLEU and Meteor) and reduction of out-of-vocabulary (OOV) words. We believe that our knowledge expansion framework is generic and could be used to add different types of information to the model.JRC.G.2-Global security and crisis managemen
