DESCRIPTION:This is a follow-up of "a talk that I gave a few weeks ago":ht

 with fairly poor predictive performance into a state-of-the-art model. The
  second part of the talk will be about a new Bayesian language model that 
 combines prior knowledge about English syntax with a semantic (topic) mode
 l into a predictive text entry system\, which will be demo'ed during the t
