Corpus - based Method for Automatic Identi cation

چکیده
Nominalization is a highly productive phenomena in most languages. The process of nominaliza-tion ejects a verb from its syntactic role into a nominal position. The original verb is often replaced by a semantically emptied support verb (e.g., make a proposal). The choice of a support verb for a given nomi-nalization is unpredictable, causing a problem for language learners as well as for natural language processing systems. We present here a method of discovering support verbs from an untagged corpus via low-level syntactic processing and comparison of arguments attached to verbal forms and potential nom-inalized forms. The result of the process is a list of potential support verbs for the nominalized form of a given predicate.

A nonlinear probabilistic model of the relaxation labeling (RL) process is implemented in the speaker identi"cation task in order to disambiguate the labeling of the speech feature vectors. In this proposed algorithm, the deterministic labeling of the vector quantization (VQ)-based speaker identi"cation is relaxed by means of introducing initial probabilistic weights to the labeling process of ...

متن کاملA Similarity Measure for Automatic Audio Classi cation
This paper presents recent results using statistics generated by a MMI-supervised vector quantizer as a measure of audio similarity. Such a measure has proved successful for talker identi cation, and the extension from speech to general audio, such as music, is straightforward. A classi er that distinguishes speech from music and non-vocal sounds is presented, as well as experimental results sh...
