Abstract
This document describes, among other things, a computer-implemented method. The method can include obtaining a plurality of text samples that each include one or more terms belonging to a first class of terms. The plurality of text samples can be classified into a plurality of groups of text samples. Each group of text samples can correspond to a different sub-class of terms. For each of the groups of text samples, a sub-class context model can be generated based on the text samples in the respective group of text samples. Particular ones of the sub-class context models that are determined to be similar can be merged to generate a hierarchical set of context models. Further, the method can include selecting particular ones of the context models and generating a class-based language model based on the selected context models.
