Abstract
This week Yue will be talking about:
Guided Learning for Bidirectional Sequence Classification http://www.aclweb.org/anthology-new/P/P07/P07-1096.pdf
In this paper, we propose guided learning, a new learning framework for bidirectional sequence classification. The tasks of learning the order of inference and training the local classifier are dynamically incorporated into a single Perceptron like learning algorithm. We apply this novel learning algorithm to POS tagging. It obtains an error rate of 2.67% on the standard PTB test set, which represents 3.3% relative error reduction over the previous best result on the same data set, while using fewer features.
