  2. Overview of reranking The reranking approach Use a baseline model to get the N -best candidates “Rerank” the candidates using a more complex model Parse reranking Collins (2000): 88.2% ⇒ 89.8% Charniak and Johnson (2005): 89.7% ⇒ 91.0% Talk by Brooke Cowan in 7B: 83.6% ⇒ 85.1% Also applied to MT (Och and Ney, 2002; Shen et al., 2004) NL Generation (Walker et al., 2001)

  3. Representing NLP structures Proper representation is critical to success Hand–crafted feature vector representations Φ ( ) = { 0, 1, 2, 0, 0, 3, 0, 1 } Features defined through kernels K ( ) · Φ ( , ) = Φ ( ) This talk: A new approach using hidden variables

  4. Two facets of lexical items Different lexical items can have similar meanings, e.g. president and chairman Clustering: president , chairman ∈ NounCluster 4 A single lexical item can have different meanings, e.g. [river] bank vs [financial] bank Refinement: bank 1 , bank 2 ∈ bank Model clusterings and refinements as hidden variables that support the reranking task

  5. Highlights of the approach Conditional log–linear model with hidden variables Dynamic programming is used for training and decoding Clustering and refinement done automatically using a discriminative criterion

  6. Overview of talk Motivation Design General form of the model Training and decoding efficiently Creating specific instantiations Results Discussion Conclusion

  12. Marginalized probability model Φ ( t i , j , h ) produces a descriptive vector of feature occurrence counts, e.g. Φ 2 ( t i , j , h ) = Count( chairman has hidden value NN 1 ) Φ 13 ( t i , j , h ) = Count(NNP 2 is a direct object of VB 1 ) Φ 19 ( t i , j , h ) = Count(NN 1 coordinates with NN 2 )

  13. Marginalized probability model Log–linear distribution over ( t i , j , h ) with parameters Θ : e Φ ( t i , j , h ) · Θ p ( t i , j , h | s i , Θ ) = j ′ , h ′ e Φ ( t i , j ′ , h ′ ) · Θ � Marginalize over assignments h : p ( t i , j | s i , Θ ) = � p ( t i , j , h | s i , Θ ) h

  14. Optimizing the parameters Define loss as negative log-likelihood n L ( Θ ) = - log p ( t i ,1 | s i , Θ ) � i=1 Minimize L ( Θ ) through gradient descent p ( h | t i ,1 , s i , Θ ) Φ ( t i ,1 , h ) ∂ L ∂ Θ = - � � i h p ( t i , j | s i , Θ ) � p ( h | t i , j , s i , Θ ) Φ ( t i , j , h ) + � i , j h

  16. Problems with efficiency | H 1 ( t i , j ) × ... × H len( s i ) ( t i , j ) | grows exponentially, so training the model is intractable: p ( h | t i ,1 , s i , Θ ) Φ ( t i ,1 , h ) ∂ L ∂ Θ = - � � h i p ( t i , j | s i , Θ ) � p ( h | t i , j , s i , Θ ) Φ ( t i , j , h ) + � h i , j Decoding the model is also intractable: p ( t i , j | s i , Θ ) = � p ( t i , j , h | s i , Θ ) h

  18. Locality constraint on features Features have pairwise local scope on hidden variables Features still have global scope on non-hidden information Φ can be factored into local feature vectors, allowing dynamic programming

  19. Local feature vectors Define two kinds of local feature vector φ : Single-variable φ ( t i , j , w , h w ) look at a single hidden variable Pairwise φ ( t i , j , u , v , h u , h v ) look at two hidden variables in a dependency relationship

  23. Local feature vectors Rewrite global Φ as a sum over local φ Φ ( t i , j , h ) = φ ( t i , j , w , h w ) � w ∈ ti , j φ ( t i , j , u , v , h u , h v ) + � ( u , v ) ∈ D ( ti , j )

  25. Applying belief propagation New restrictions enable dynamic–programming approaches, e.g. belief propagation BP generalizes the forward–backward algorithm from a chain to a tree Runtime O (len( s i ) H 2 ), H = max | H w ( t i , j ) | BP efficiently computes p ( t i , j , h | s i , Θ ) � h p ( h | t i , j , s i , Θ ) Φ ( t i , j , h ) � h
