Claim One:
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising, by a processor: receiving a first dataset including a first given source and a corresponding first given target; parsing the first given source to determine a first parsed target output in accordance with a parsing model having a first parsing parameter; determining an intrinsic loss based upon an intrinsic loss function, the first parsed target and the first given target; receiving a second dataset containing a second given source and a corresponding second given target; parsing the second given source input to generate k-best parses in accordance with the parsing model having a second parsing parameter, the k-best parses including a 1-best parse; determining a lowest cost parse among the k-best parses; determining an extrinsic loss based upon an extrinsic loss function, the lowest cost parse and the 1-best parse; modifying the first parsing parameter based on the determining the intrinsic loss, and; modifying the second parsing parameter based on the determining the extrinsic loss, or modifying the first parameter based on the determining the intrinsic loss and modifying the second parsing parameter based on the determining the extrinsic loss.
