Labeled Morphological Segmentation with Semi-Markov Models
Cotterell, Ryan, Müller, Thomas, Fraser, Alexander, Schütze, Hinrich
We present labeled morphological segmentation, an alternative view of morphological processing that unifies several tasks. From an annotation standpoint, we additionally introduce a new hierarchy of morphotactic tagsets. Finally, we develop \modelname, a discriminative morphological segmentation system that, contrary to previous work, explicitly models morphotactics. We show that \textsc{chipmunk} yields improved performance on three tasks for all six languages: (i) morphological segmentation, (ii) stemming and (iii) morphological tag classification. On morphological segmentation, our method shows absolute improvements of 2--6 points $F_1$ over the baseline.

5 Best AI-Powered Chatbot Apps
The Telegraph has proclaimed: "The end of apps is here…" TechCrunch, Mashable, VentureBeat, and others also shared their belief that mobile applications as we know them are a dying breed. But how did mobile apps become endangered? Recently, IO's creators changed the app's name to Luka and added several little helpers, meaning it's now in charge of 12 other bots: Foodie (for restaurant recommendations), Weather, Wiki, Video, Gif, Pic, News, Founders, Search, Calculator, Quiz, and QuestHero. As of July 2016, Luka had around 5,000 downloads on App Store, with a monthly income of less than $5,000 (according to Sensor Tower). Nevertheless, having announced the recent close of a $4.42 million Series A funding round, Luka's creators are more than optimistic about the app's future.
Building a chatbot that's smarter than a fifth grader
Humans have been interested in building intelligent computer systems since the beginning of computing technology. There's something both interesting and strange about mimicking the function of a human brain that we feel the need to explore -- how crazy is it to build a machine that can beat out the human brain in a game of chess? Of course, as applied to today's chatbots, artificial intelligence is still in its infancy. But don't take that the wrong way: Today's bots can still offer a great deal of utility for businesses and consumers. Messaging platforms like Facebook Messenger, WeChat, and Kik are making it easier than ever for brands and businesses to have a presence where millions of users are already spending time.
In Search for Perfect Hotel Results, Hipmunk is Latest to Give it a Try
Does the hotel search result you view on an online travel site a perfect match, just in the ballpark or even irrelevant?

But various keyword searches we tried yielded relevant results.
