Toward Unsupervised Whole-Corpus Tagging
We present a system for unsupervised tagging of words into classes produced by a distributional clustering technique called co-clustering.

Balancing Formal and Practical Concerns in Agent Design
In this paper, we discuss a number of both formal and practical requirements that must be met to satisfy the demands of large-scale applications. We also briefly describe work on…

Using Functional and Organizational Information to Improve Genome-Wide Computational Prediction of Transcription Units on Pathway/Genome Databases
We implemented a TU predictor that uses only intergenic distance and functional classification of genes to predict TU boundaries, and applied it to EcoCyc, our PGDB of Escherichia coli.

A Fine-Grained Evaluation Method for Speech-to-Speech Machine Translation Using Concept Annotations
This paper describes the development of a concept annotation method for evaluating a narrow domain speech-to-speech translation system and discusses how the scores produced by that method relate to naïve…

Computational analysis of Plasmodium falciparum metabolism: Organizing genomic information to facilitate drug discovery
We have constructed PlasmoCyc, a PGDB for Plasmodium falciparum 3D7, using its annotated genomic sequence. We also add 956 additional annotations to proteins annotated as “hypothetical” using the GeneQuiz annotation system.
