Response to Van Dongen: Adverse Events During Polysomnography

Pádraig Cunningham, Marc van Dongen,

In this paper, we present a novel system which automat-ically converts text documents into XML by using machine-learningtechniques. In the first phase, the system uses the Self-OrganizingMap (SOM) algorithm to arrange marked-up documents on a two-dimensional map such that the documents similar in content appearcloser to each other. In the second phase, it then uses the induc...

The Response of Fluvial Systems to Large Flood Events

In the summer of 2001, an intense thunderstorm in southeastern Caspian Sea triggered a catastrophic flood in the Madarsoo basin . Use of methods including high-resolution aerial photographs and satellite images interpretation, multi-date mapping, hydraulic calculations and field observations made possible the documentation of the geomorphic impacts on the Madarsoo River and its tributaries.
