The Mathematics and Cognition will
present our next lecture on Tuesday, November 26, at 12:15 PM in GWC 604.
Our speaker will be Prof. Hasan Davulcu of the Department of Computer Science,
who will speak on the topic:

"Bayesian Methods for Information Extraction"

Abstract.

 
In this talk I will present some computational techniques for information extraction (IE) from unstructured text fragments and semi-structured documents, such as HTML and XML. Our approach is based on exposing and utilizing source specific syntatic regularities, using regular path expressions and HMMs, in order to (i) enrich an existing domain ontology, and, (ii) extract information with high precision and recall
