Indo-Portuguese Quilting Tradition: The Cross-Cultural Context

Portuguese Corpora at CLUL

The Corpus de Referência do Português Contemporâneo (CRPC) is being developed in the Centro de Linguística da Universidade de Lisboa (CLUL) since 1988 under a perspective of research data enlargement, in the sense of concepts and hypothesis verification by rejecting the sole use of intuitive data. The intention of creating this open corpus is to establish an on-line representative sample collec...

In this paper, we comment on the addition of Portuguese to three new tracks in CLEF 2005, namely WebCLEF, GeoCLEF and ImageCLEF, and discuss differences and new features in the adhoc IR and the QA tracks, presenting a new Brazilian collection.

Present at the creation.

The spliceosome was in its heyday... the ribosome not yet proven to be a ribozyme...microRNAs, lncRNAs, et al. lurking out of sight. The survivors of previous RNA processing get-togethers (starting in 1974 at Brookhaven), gathering in Keystone in 1994, speculated that since there was a (financially successful and media-savvy) Protein Society, why not RNA? And if an RNA Society, why not an RNA j...

MO calculations of some thymine radicals at the INDO level.

The results of MO INDO calculations of some thymine radicals are presented. These include as well as the hydrogen addition radicals the hydroxyl addition radicals to C5 and to C6 of the C5=C6 double bond of the thymine molecule. The radicals resulting from hydrogen abstraction from the methyl group and from the nitrogen N1 are also studied. Except for radicals where the main spin density is loc...
