Statistical language models assign probabilities to sequences of words, and are used in systems that perform speech recognition, machine translation, and many other tasks. In recent years, language ...

Statistical modeling lies at the heart of data science. Well-crafted statistical models allow data scientists to draw conclusions about the world from the limited information present in their data. In ...

This paper presents a novel method to segment/decode DNA sequences based on n-gram statistical language model. Firstly, we find the length of most DNA “words” is 12 to 15 bps by analyzing the genomes ...

As in any field of scientific inquiry, advancements in the field of second language acquisition (SLA) rely in part on the interpretation and generalizability of study findings using quantitative data ...

John D. Lafferty, newly named as the John C. Malone Professor of Statistics and Data Science, conducts research on statistical machine learning, with a focus on computational and statistical aspects ...

Statistical language models assign probabilities to sequences of words, and are used in systems that perform text summarization, machine translation, question answering, information extraction, text ...
