In this paper, we draw on data from world languages teachers (English, Spanish and French, in particular) to explore and unpack binaries encountered i... [more]
Decades of research has investigated the heterogeneity of English among speakers of various linguistic and cultural backgrounds, but there still remai... [more]
It is now ten years ago since the decision was made to apply the functional programming language Erlang to real production projects at Ericsson. In late 1995, development on the Open Telecom Platform (OTP) started, and in mid 1996 the AXD 301 project beca
The brain areas involved in music reading were investigated using fMRI. In order to evaluate the specificity of these areas we compared reading music notation to reading verbal and number notations in a task that required professional pianists to play the
Prior research with rodent models, performed predominantly in males, has demonstrated a significant association between focal neocortical malformations (e.g. ectopias and microgyria) and rate-specific auditory processing deficits. In the current study and
In languages with diacritic marks, such as French, there remain instances of textual or terminological resources that are available in electronic form without diacritic marks, which hinders their use in natural language interfaces. In a specialized domain
We present a framework for concept-based cross-language information retrieval in the medical domain, which is under development in the MUCHMORE project. Our approach is based on using the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) as the primary source of sem
Objective: We investigate the use of adjectival modification as a way of assessing the systematic use of linguistic phenomena to represent similar lexical or semantic features in the constituent terms of a vocabulary. Methods: Terms consisting of one or m
Unlike journal corpora, which are supposed to be carefully reviewed before being published, the quality of documents in a patient record are often corrupted by misspelled words and conventional graphies or abbreviations. After a survey of the domain, the
MEDSYNDIKATE is a natural language processor, which automatically acquires medical information from findings reports. In the course of text analysis their contents is transferred to conceptual representation structures, which constitute a corresponding te
In this paper we describe Tagged Information Management System (TIMS), an integrated knowledge management system for the domain of molecular biology and biomedicine, in which terminology-driven literature mining, knowledge acquisition (KA), knowledge inte
Much of knowledge modeling in the molecular biology domain involves interactions between proteins, genes, various forms of RNA, small molecules, etc. Interactions between these substances are typically extracted and codified manually, increasing the cost
Literature mining is the process of extracting and combining facts from scientific publications. In recent years, many computer programs have been designed to extract various molecular biology findings from Medline abstracts or full-text articles. The pre
Two types of visualization and animation tools for LOTOS execution traces are presented: a translator from LOTOS traces to message sequence charts and a graphic animator. These are made possible by enforcing specific LOTOS styles and by providing certain
In this paper we address protocol animation in design and in operation from different points of view. These views are chosen according to the abstraction level (application view, communication view), the granularity (overview, details), and the system str
This paper presents an animation environment based on an open and flexible architecture. Its flexible architecture allows animating different animation sources (formal and executable language like SDL or scenario languages like MSC or UML sequence diagram
