 ">Understanding Chinese Texts via Statistical Inference</a>\nby Ke Deng/
 邓柯 (Center for Statistical Science\, Tsinghua University) as part of I
 CCM 2020\n\n\nAbstract\nWith the growing availability of digitized text da
 ta both publicly and privately\, there is a great need for effective compu
 tational tools to automatically extract information from texts. Because th
 e Chinese language differs most significantly from alphabet-based language
 s in not specifying word boundaries\, most existing Chinese text-mining me
 thods require a prespecified vocabulary and/or a large relevant training c
 orpus\, which may not be available in some applications. We proposed a fam
 ily of statistical approaches that can achieve multiple NLP tasks\, such a
 s word discovery\, name entity recognition\, word segementation\, semamtic
  understanding and relation extraction\, simultaneously with little traini
 ng information. These approaches are particularly useful for mining domain
 -specific texts where the underlying vocabulary is unknown and/or the text
 s of interest differ significantly from standard training corpora.\n
