The paper by Jan Botha and Phil Blunsom is entitled Compositional Morphology for Word Representations and Language Modelling, and it introduces a simple but effective technique for integrating morphological information into statistical language models based on vector representations. The work was presented at ICML, which took place in Beijing on 22-24 June.
