....Other chunk types have not received the same attention as NP chunks. The most complete work is [BVD99] which presents results for NP, VP, PP, ADJP and ADVP chunks. Vee99] works with NP, VP and PP chunks. RM95] have recognized arbitrary chunks but classified every non NP chunk as VP chunk. [Rat98] has recognized arbitrary chunks as part of a parsing task but did not report on the chunking performance. Software and Data The train and test data consist of three columns separated by spaces. Each word has been put on a separate line and there is an empty line after each sentence. The first ....

.... Research Microsoft Corporation One Microsoft Way http: www.research.microsoft.com 1 Introduction Conditional Maximum Entropy (maxent) models have been widely used for a variety of tasks, including language modeling [17] part of speech tagging, prepositional phrase attachment, and parsing [15], word selection for machine translation [2] and finding sentence boundaries [16] They are also sometimes called logistic regression models, maximum likelihood exponential models, log linear models, and are even equivalent to a form of perceptrons single layer neural networks. In particular, ....

....natural language understanding systems, and a great deal of research has gone into preprocessing techniques to deal with them. Our solution for these issues has been to create a pipeline of preprocessing components which use XML [38] documents in the input output speci cations. Following work by [26], we have built the components themselves using the maximum entropy framework. At present, we have built a tokenizer and sentence detector which use maximum entropy models with features based on those presented in [26] and [28] Other tasks such as paragraph detection or dealing with gures and ....

.... Rooth s approach, this approach does not consider the prepositional noun (N 2 ) The loglinear framework used in this approach also does not necessarily consider interactions between all features, as the maxent framework used in this dissertation does. 2.5.2. 3 Unsupervised Supervised Maxent: Ratnaparkhi 1998 There are two maxent approaches presented in this thesis. The first is unsupervised insofar as there is no manual labour or full parser involved in the extraction of the training data. Instead, the raw text is processed using a tagger and a simple chunker 1 to determine the headwords of noun ....
....achieve very good results using a back off Chapter 2. Previous Work 28 algorithm, but the underlying model maximum likelihood has several shortcomings. Maximum entropy models have several attractive properties, and it seems quite possible to improve on the [Ratnaparkhi et al. 1994] and [Ratnaparkhi, 1998] maxent models. We consider both vanilla and backed off maxent models. Ensemble methods, where a number of classifiers vote on the final prediction, have essentially been untouched in this field except for the Alegre (1999) approach. Chapter 8 considers some methods for creating ensembles of ....

.... over the distribution [6] and building the feature set up by a process of induction to ensure that only maximally representative features are admitted into the model [7] The most commonly employed and computationally inexpensive approach to reducing noise is to use a frequency based feature cuto [14], in which features which occur fewer times in the training data than some predetermined cuto are eliminated. This has shown to be an e ective way to improve results. Because of its simplicity and e ectiveness, it is the approach we have focused on improving on in the present research. Although ....

....should be similar to those of English i.e. Another problem for these languages is also related to segmentation: Part of Speech (POS) tagging. Taking Chinese as an example, although there are many Part of Speech taggers available for English and these taggers are claimed to be language independent [9, 12, 13, 17, 27, 51, 76], there is no publicly available POS tagger for Chinese. The main reason for this is the lack of benchmark data for training and testing. With the recent release of Chinese Treebank [22] we are now able to port the taggers to Chinese. Then with a Chinese segmenter and a POS tagger, we can build ....
....segmentation problems. Information extraction requires many constraints for prediction, including local ones and globe ones. Maximum entropy models has been shown to be good at modeling these constraints in many NLP areas, such as name entity recognition [8] POS and word sense disambiguation [76], parsing [17, 76] attribute grammar [65] language modeling [49, 53, 80] text segmentation [3] word spelling check [72] machine translation [4] text classi cation [63] and information extraction [54] The standard ME method is a supervised approach, which means that we have to label the ....

....into that representation. 2 Steps in Text Analysis Our text understanding system has six main steps: 1. Structural analyzer 2. Lexical analyzer 3. Syntactic parser 4. Semantic interpreter 5. Frame builder 6. Coreference resolution The structural analyzer uses a maximum entropy classifier [Ratnaparkhi, 1998] to determine the sentence boundaries after dividing the document into sections based on page layout cues. The lexical analyzer looks up each word of the sentence in a domain specific glossary. This assigns syntactic and semantic features to each word that are used later by the parser and the ....
