You are welcome. Indeed, I was tempted to keep it for myself ;-)
As for learning rules, I guess you know the work http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/605753.html or similar. In practical contexts, it must be integrated with learning the semantical lexicon (e.g., feature structures), and thus, the "ontology". On 5/8/07, Mark Waser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Personally, I found the dissertation highly enlightening and helpful. Yes, it addresses ambiguity problems with rules (though I debate both of Matt's descriptors -- the term huge and the term complicated) without specifying how these rules might be machine-learned -- but doing so is still a tremendously useful first step. Further, I think that requiring a model that learns *all* language rules from unlabeled text (and starting from scratch) is making the problem far harder than it needs to be. You didn't do that as a child so why should you insist upon it for a system? Thank you very much for the reference, Lukasz! Mark
