• CSE Colloquia - 2005: Natural Language Processing.
  Natural language processing offers a rich problem domain for machine learning approaches. Many NLP problems require the induction of a mapping that involves complex, discrete structures such as strings, labeled sequences, or trees. In this distinguished lecture, Michael Collins [Massachusetts Institute of Technology] describes how 'large margin' methods in machine learning can be generalized to 'structured' problems found in NLP.
