Technology has increasingly become an integral part of the Bible translation process. Over time, both the translation process and relevant technology have evolved greatly. More recently, the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP) has…
We consider different online algorithms for a generalized scheduling problem for parallel machines, described in details in the first section. This problem is the generalization of the classical parallel machine scheduling problem, when the…
Parallel fixed-parameter tractability studies how parameterized problems can be solved in parallel. A surprisingly large number of parameterized problems admit a high level of parallelization, but this does not mean that we can also…
In this paper, we investigate the tendency of end-to-end neural Machine Reading Comprehension (MRC) models to match shallow patterns rather than perform inference-oriented reasoning on RC benchmarks. We aim to test the ability of these…
Tree kernels are fundamental tools that have been leveraged in many applications, particularly those based on machine learning for Natural Language Processing tasks. In this paper, we devise a parallel implementation of the sequential…
Semitic morphologically-rich languages (MRLs) are characterized by extreme word ambiguity. Because most vowels are omitted in standard texts, many of the words are homographs with multiple possible analyses, each with a different…
This paper presents an effective approach for parallel corpus mining using bilingual sentence embeddings. Our embedding models are trained to produce similar representations exclusively for bilingual sentence pairs that are translations of…
This paper proposes a technique to specify and verify whether a loop can be parallelised. Our approach can be used as an additional step in a parallelising compiler to verify user annotations about loop dependences. Essentially, our…
Binary code analysis allows analyzing binary code without having access to the corresponding source code. A binary, after disassembly, is expressed in an assembly language. This inspires us to approach binary analysis by leveraging ideas…
We describe our experience with automatic alignment of sentences in parallel English-Chinese texts. Our report concerns three related topics: (1) progress on the HKUST English-Chinese Parallel Bilingual Corpus; (2) experiments addressing…
Parallel sentence extraction is a task addressing the data sparsity problem found in multilingual natural language processing applications. We propose a bidirectional recurrent neural network based approach to extract parallel sentences…
A novel parallel algorithm for matrix multiplication is presented. The hyper-systolic algorithm makes use of a one-dimensional processor abstraction. The procedure can be implemented on all types of parallel systems. It can handle…
In this paper, we pay attention to the issue which is usually overlooked, i.e., \textit{similarity should be determined from different perspectives}. To explore this issue, we release a Multi-Perspective Text Similarity (MPTS) dataset, in…
The goal of our industrial ticketing system is to retrieve a relevant solution for an input query, by matching with historical tickets stored in knowledge base. A query is comprised of subject and description, while a historical ticket…
This paper introduces a new task in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Digital Humanities (DH): Mining Asymmetric Intertextuality. Asymmetric intertextuality refers to one-sided relationships between texts, where one text cites, quotes,…
Many Natural Language Processing and Computational Linguistics applications involves the generation of new texts based on some existing texts, such as summarization, text simplification and machine translation. However, there has been a…
In our previous work "An Algebraic Watchdog for Wireless Network Coding", we proposed a new scheme in which nodes can detect malicious behaviors probabilistically, police their downstream neighbors locally using overheard messages; thus,…
The paper considers the problem of finding a given substring in a text. It is known that the complexity of a classical search query in an unordered database is linear in the length of the text and a given substring. At the same time,…
Detecting issue framing in text - how different perspectives approach the same topic - is valuable for social science and policy analysis, yet challenging for automated methods due to subtle linguistic differences. We introduce `paired…
Tests are essential in Information Retrieval (IR), in order to evaluate the effectiveness of a query. Tests intended to exhibit the sense of words in con-text were undertaken and linked with Quantum Mechanics (QM). Poll tests were…
