In natural language processing, a tutorial on Machine Learning Methods in Natural Language Processing was presented by Michael Collins, followed by two invited talks, Learning from Uncertain Data by Mehryar Mohri and Learning and Parsing Stochastic Uni?cation- Based Grammars by Mark Johnson. In addition to the accepted papers and invited presentations, we solicited short open problems that were reviewed and included in the proceedings. We hope that reviewed open problems might become a new tradition for COLT. Our goal was to select simple signature problems whose solutions are likely to inspire further research. For some of the problems the authors o?ered monetary rewards. Yoav Freund acted as the open problem area chair. The open problems were presented as posters at the conference.
Bernhard Schölkopf is a member of the Max Planck Society and Director of the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics. He is also an Honorary Professor of Machine Learning at the Technical University Berlin. His scientific interests are in the field of inference from empirical data; in particular, in machine learning methods for extracting statistical and causal regularities.
