 MIT Language Modeling Toolkit
 =============================
 
-The MIT Language Modeling (MITLM) toolkit is a set of tools designed for the 
-efficient estimation of statistical n-gram language models involving iterative
-parameter estimation.  It achieves much of its efficiency through the use of a
-compact vector representation of n-grams.  Details of the data structure and
-associated algorithms can be found in the following paper.

 Currently, MITLM supports the following features:
 
   * Smoothing: Modified Kneser-Ney, Kneser-Ney, maximum likelihood
-  * Interpolation: Linear interpolation, count merging, generalized linear
