This limits coverage and erases fine distinctions: Freebase has no concept for "front-runner", for example. Krishnamurthy and Mitchell let each word define its own predicate while still grounding meaning in Freebase… ## All works 8 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 3 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[Learning a Neural Semantic Parser from User Feedback ↗](https://aclanthology.org/P17-1089/) Proceedings of the 55th Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (Volume 1: Long Papers) · no summary yet**Srinivasan Iyer et al.*2017 · 472 citations* 2. **[Neural Semantic Parsing with Type Constraints for Semi-Structured Tables ↗](https://aclanthology.org/D17-1160/) Proceedings of the 2017 Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing · no summary yet**Jayant Krishnamurthy, Pradeep Dasigi, Matt Gardner*2017 · 337 citations* 3. **[Jointly Learning to Parse and Perceive: Connecting Natural Language to the Physical World](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/krishnamurthy-2013-jointly-learning-parse-perceive-connecting/) [Transactions of the Association for Computational Linguistics (TACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/tacl/)**Jayant Krishnamurthy, Thomas Kollar*2013 · 207 citations* 4. **[Instructable Intelligent Personal Agent ↗](https://doi.org/10.1609/aaai.v30i1.10357) AAAI 2016 · no summary yet**Amos Azaria, Jayant Krishnamurthy, Tom M.
