RODI: Technical User Manual
This manual is addressed to users of the RODI benchmark suite [1], who intend to run the benchmark for evaluating some mapping generation system. RODI is designed to test the quality of (semi-) automatically generated mappings between relational schemata and ontologies. It includes a benchmark framework, test scenarios, a scoring function and reporting, as well as an extension mechanism to add ...
متن کاملDivining integrative medicine
Medicine, like scientific inquiry, is necessarily dynamic. As our understanding of health and disease continues to grow, medicine as we know it will change. Alternative therapies and perspectives that are coming to light will be illuminated by modern methods of inquiry applied to pre-modern healing systems. At the same time, patient demands and cultural concerns about health and healing influen...
متن کاملDivining God's mutation rate
The total genomic mutation rate (μ) and the deleterious mutation rate ( U ), are of fundamental importance to a number of areas of biology, including the classic evolutionary conundrum: why sex? Unfortunately, both μ and U have historically proven extremely difficult to measure accurately. A recent study by Haag-Liautard et al. (1) combines traditional experimental ’mutation accumulation’ metho...
متن کاملDivining Proportions in the Information Age
For students of medieval proportional systems who lack such documentary evidence as James Ackerman had, in relative abundance, for his groundbreaking 1949 study of the Cathedral of Milan, the only choice has been to turn to the buildings. Yet Ackerman warned that such an exercise was destined to fail: ‘the analysis of remaining monuments,’ he wrote, ‘provides insufficient evidence for [the] tas...
متن کاملDivining the design principles of voltage sensors
The ability of membrane proteins to sense and respond to changes in membrane voltage is critical for a vast array of biological processes, from generating and propagating the nerve impulse to excitation–secretion coupling. Hodgkin and Huxley (1952) were the first to characterize voltage-activated potassium (Kv) and sodium (Nav) currents, but the common architecture of voltage-activated cation c...
