Multiple Annotations of Reusable Data Resources: Corpora for Topic Detection and Tracking
نویسنده
چکیده
Responding to demands for very large, easily accessible, reusable news corpora to support research in the topic detection and tracking paradigm, the Linguistic Data Consortium created the TDT corpora. In addition to supporting research in the Topic Detection and Tracking program, the TDT corpora were collected and annotated with an eye toward reuse and re-annotation. Their value is confirmed in the number of projects that have benefited from part of all of the TDT corpora for new uses. The paragraphs that follow will describe the raw data and annotations in the TDT corpora and summarize their use in multiple common-task research programs.

Online multiple people tracking-by-detection in crowded scenes
Multiple people detection and tracking is a challenging task in real-world crowded scenes. In this paper, we have presented an online multiple people tracking-by-detection approach with a single camera. We have detected objects with deformable part models and a visual background extractor. In the tracking phase we have used a combination of support vector machine (SVM) person-specific classifie...

The TDT-3 Text and Speech Corpus expands on previous phases of Topic Detection and Tracking data collections, by increasing the number of news sources being sampled, by including Mandarin Chinese as well as English news data, and by introducing new forms of topic annotation. In order to satisfy the specific data and annotation requirements of the TDT-3 Evaluation Plan[1], the LDC refined and su...

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...

The Linguistic Data Consortium at the University of Pennsylvania has recently been engaged in the creation of large-scale annotated corpora of broadcast news materials in support of the ongoing Topic Detection and Tracking (TDT) research project. The TDT corpora were designed to support three basic research tasks: segmentation, topic detection, and topic tracking in newswire, television and rad...
