The CLIP Colloquium is a weekly speaker series organized and hosted by CLIP Lab. The talks are open to everyone. Most talks are held at 11AM in AV Williams 3258 unless otherwise noted. Typically, external speakers have slots for one-on-one meetings with Maryland researchers before and after the talks; contact the host if you'd like to have a meeting.

'''Abstract:''' The transition-based approach to dependency parsing has become
popular thanks to its simplicity and efficiency. Systems like MaltParser
achieve linear-time parsing with projective dependency trees using locally
trained classifiers to predict the next parsing action and greedy best-first
search to retrieve the optimal parse tree, assuming that the input sentence has
been morphologically disambiguated using a part-of-speech tagger. In this talk,
I survey recent developments in transition-based dependency parsing that address
some of the limitations of the basic transition-based approach. First, I show
how globally trained classifiers and beam search can be used to mitigate error
propagation and enable richer feature representations. Secondly, I discuss
different methods for extending the coverage to non-projective trees, which are
required for linguistic adequacy in many languages.Finally, I present a
model for joint tagging and parsing that leads to improvements in both tagging
and parsing accuracy as compared to the standard pipeline approach.
 
'''About the Speaker:''' Joakim Nivre is Professor of Computational Linguistics at Uppsala
University and currently visiting scientist at Google, New York. He holds a
Ph.D. in General Linguistics from the University of Gothenburg and a Ph.D. in
Computer Science from Växjö University. Joakim's research focuses on data-driven
methods for natural language processing, in particular for syntactic and semantic analysis. He is one of the main developers of the transition-based
approach to syntactic dependency parsing, described in his 2006 book Inductive
Dependency Parsing and implemented in the MaltParser system. Joakim's current
research interests include the analysis of mildly non-projective dependency
structures, the integration of morphological and syntactic processing for richly
inflected languages, and methods for cross-framework parser evaluation. He has
produced over 150 scientific publications, including 3 books, and has given
nearly 70 invited talks at conferences and institutions around the world. He is
the current secretary of the European Chapter of the Association for
Computational Linguistics.
