Morph-Based Speech Recognition and Modeling of Out-of-Vocabulary Words Across Languages
We explore the use of morph-based language models in large-vocabulary continuous speech recognition systems across four so-called “morphologically rich” languages: Finnish, Estonian, Turkish, and Egyptian Colloquial Arabic. The morphs are…

Extending the Simcalc Approach to Grade 8 Mathematics
In a second randomized experiment SRI International (SRI) and its partners replicated the approach of their seventh-grade experiment, extending the SimCalc approach to eighthgrade mathematics.

Reranking Machine Translation Hypotheses With Structured and Web-based Language Models
In this paper, we investigate the use of linguistically motivated and computationally efficient structured language models for reranking N-best hypotheses in a statistical machine translation system.

Web 2.0 in the enterprise
Based on extensive studies of social systems such as del.icio.us and Wikipedia, we have identified a number of factors that need to be managed in order to realize the full…

Sampling Stable Properties of Massive Track Datasets
In this paper, we explore ways in which stable properties of sensor observations can be extracted and visualized using a statistical sampling of features from a very large track dataset,…

Enabling Experts to Build Knowledge Bases from Science Textbooks
As a near-term goal, we are focusing on enabling subject matter experts (SMEs) to construct declarative knowledge bases (KBs) from 50 pages of a science textbook in the domains of…

Extending Boosting for Large Scale Spoken Language Understanding
We propose three methods for extending the Boosting family of classifiers motivated by the real-life problems we have encountered. Our results indicate that it is possible to obtain the same…

Radio and Meteor Science Outcomes from Comparisons of Meteor Radar Observations at Amisr Poker Flat, Sondrestrom, and Arecibo
We address these meteor “head-echo” observations issues via the first ever use and analysis of meteor observations from the Poker Flat AMISR (PFISR: 449.3 MHz), Sondrestrom (SRF: 1,290 MHz), and Arecibo (AO:…

Capturing a Taxonomy of Failures During Automatic Interpretation of Questions Posed in Natural Language
In this paper, we present a study – conducted in the context of the Halo Project – cataloging the types of failures that occur when capturing knowledge from natural language.
