NIST's 1998 topic detection and tracking evaluation (TDT2)

چکیده
This paper presents a summary of the 1998 Topic Detection and Tracking (TDT) tasks and the results of the 1998 TDT evaluation. The purpose of TDT is to develop technologies for retrieval and automatic organization of Broadcast News and Newswire stories and to evaluate the performance of those technologies. The TDT project builds on and extends the technologies of Automatic Speech Recognition and Document Retrieval with three tasks: 1) Story Segmentation, 2) Topic Detection and 3) Topic Tracking. Each of the tasks simulates a hypothetical operational system that requires incoming data to be processed time synchronously. The 1998 TDT evaluation (TDT2) continues the work of the TDT pilot study conducted in 1997 (TDT1) and is the first open evaluation of TDT tasks.

Story segmentation and topic detection for recognized speech
In this paper we present algorithms for story segmentation, topic detection, and topic tracking. The algorithms use a combination of machine learning, statistical natural language processing and information retrieval techniques. The story segmentation algorithm is a two stage algorithm that uses a decision tree based probabilistic model in the rst stage and incorporates aspects of our topic det...

متن کاملDoppler and bearing tracking using fuzzy adaptive unscented Kalman filter
The topic of Doppler and Bearing Tracking (DBT) problem is to achieve a target trajectory using the Doppler and Bearing measurements. The difficulty of DBT problem comes from the nonlinearity terms exposed in the measurement equations. Several techniques were studied to deal with this topic, such as the unscented Kalman filter. Nevertheless, the performance of the filter depends directly on the...
