Maximum entropy models offer a clean way to combine diverse pieces of contextual evidence in order to estimate the probability of a certain linguistic class occurring with a certain linguistic context. This report demonstrates the use of a particular maximum entropy model on an example problem, and then proves some relevant...}, priority = {2}, citeulike-article-id = {2162753}, keywords = {nlp statistics } }
