The model used by the CCG parser of Hockenmaier and Steedman (2002b) would fail to capture the correct bilexical dependencies in a language with freer word order, such as Dutch. This paper argues that probabilistic parsers should therefore model the dependencies in the predicate-argument structure, as in the model of Clark et al. (2002), and defines a generative model for CCG derivations that c...

We summarize the dominant decay modes of the neutral and charged Higgs bosons in the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model. While two–body decays are in general dominating, the branching ratios for three–body decays of the heavy scalar, pseudoscalar and charged Higgs bosons can be large below the thresholds if top quarks, W/Z bosons or heavy scalar bosons are involved. Analytic...

Page appearance and layout for music notation is a critical component of the overall musical information contained in a document. To capture and transfer this information, we outline an interchange format for OMR applications, the OMR Interchange Package (OIP) format, which is designed to allow layout information and page images to be preserved and transferred along with semantic musical conten...

1 This work has been carried out within the priority programme "Mobile Communication" of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) under grant no. Sp. 230/12-2 and within the ACTS-project AMASE (AC 346) of the European Commission Abstract The future nomadic customer will want to make requests according to his personal service profile and to be reachable under the same number, no matter with whi...

Complementing evidence that childhood poverty negatively affects adult outcomes, the impact of poverty on well-being in late childhood is investigated empirically to help inform the targeting of policy. Child well-being and household poverty are conceptualised as multi-dimensional phenomena and structural equation modelling used to ascertain the relative importance of determinants of child well...

As a computer scientist and interdisciplinary researcher working in the field of computational biology, I am inspired by the potential benefits of computational approaches to biological research and driven by my passion for solving difficult computational challenges. In that vein, the majority of my research has been in cancer genomics, which provides diverse and difficult computational problem...

Results on hadronic final states in e'e' annihilation are reported. The data were collected with t he MARK II detector at the PEP storage ring at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, operating at a center-of-mass energy of ds=29 GeV The MARK II detector, a 4.5 KG solenoid with cylindrical drift chambers, surrounded by a liquid argon calorimeter, has events are selected by least 5 charged pat...
