Redundancy is patched afterwards with tricks such as Trigram Blocking. The authors argue that this ignores how sentences work together as a summary. They recast extraction as semantic text matching: candidate summaries… 2. **[Language-specific Effects on Automatic Speech Recognition Errors for World Englishes](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/choe-2022-language-specific-effects-automatic-speech/)** *(2022 · 3 citations)* The paper asks why commercial speech recognition serves some English speakers worse than others. Earlier work mostly reported a single Word Error Rate (WER), and that number cannot show which sounds fail or why. The authors tested Otter, a captioning engine used inside Zoom, on 1,227 readings of the same passage from… ## All works 7 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 2 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[Extractive Summarization as Text Matching](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhong-2020-extractive-summarization-as-text-matching/) [Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/)**Ming Zhong, Pengfei Liu, Yiran Chen, et al.*2020 · 570 citations* 2. **[Learning Structured Sparsity in Deep Neural Networks ↗](https://arxiv.org/abs/1608.03665) arXiv:1608.03665 · no summary yet**Wei Wen et al.*2016 · 530 citations* 3. **[Feature Space Perturbations Yield More Transferable Adversarial Examples ↗](https://doi.org/10.1109/cvpr.2019.00723) IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings - IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings · no summary yet**Nathan Inkawhich et al.*2019 · 176 citations* 4. **[Towards Building The Federatedgpt: Federated Instruction Tuning ↗](https://doi.org/10.1109/icassp48485.2024.10447454) IEEE International Conference on Acoustics Speech and Signal Processing · no summary yet**Jianyi Zhang et al.*2024 · 129 citations* 5. **[Exploiting plaintext-related mechanism for secure color image encryption ↗](https://doi.org/10.1007/s00521-019-04312-8) Neural Computing and Applications · no summary yet**Xiuli Chai et al.*2019 · 62 citations* 6. **[Inter-Disciplinary Research Challenges in Computer Systems for the 2020s ↗](https://openalex.org/W2903187878) no summary yet**Albert Cohen et al.*2018 · 16 citations* 7. **[Language-specific Effects on Automatic Speech Recognition Errors for World Englishes](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/choe-2022-language-specific-effects-automatic-speech/) [International Conference on Computational Linguistics (COLING)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/coling/)**June Choe, Yiran Chen, May Pik Yu Chan, et al.*2022 · 3 citations* ## Co-authors here 7 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Danqing Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/danqing-wang/) - [Ming Zhong](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/ming-zhong/) - [Nicole Holliday](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/nicole-holliday/) - [Pengfei Liu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/pengfei-liu/) - [Xin Gao](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xin-gao/) - [Xipeng Qiu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xipeng-qiu/) - [Xuanjing Huang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xuanjing-huang/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/): [ACL 2020](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/2020/) - [International Conference on Computational Linguistics (COLING)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/coling/): [COLING 2022](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/coling/2022/) - IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings - IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition/Proceedings - IEEE International Conference on Acoustics Speech and Signal Processing - Neural Computing and Applications ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 311 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [20 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yiran-chen/cited-by/).
