In this paper, we present an approach based on Reasoning and Natural Language Processing for Ontology Learning, specifically over Description Logic (DL) knowledge bases constituted by a TBox with ALC expressivity, from interactions with users in controled natural language text. The viability of our approach is demonstrated through the generation of descriptions of complex axioms from concepts d...

This result raises questions about previous studies in which AoA was not controlled and about current theories in which it is not addressed. Analyses of the materials used in previous studies suggest that the observed AoA effects may have been due to other factors. We also found little evidence for an AoA effect in computational m...

Recursive filters are used frequently in digital signal processing. They can be implemented in dedicated hardware or in software on a digital signal processor (DSP). Software solutions often are preferable for their speed of implementation and flexibility. However, contemporary DSPs are mostly not fast enough to perform filtering for high datarates or large filters. A method to increase the com...

In this paper, we propose a method to introduce an A search control into sentential matching mechanism for question-answering systems, in order to reduce the response time while the accuracy of the answer is preserved. The question answering is a new technology to retrieve not relevant documents but the answer(s) directly by combining several methodology including IR and IE. One of the essentia...

Skin electroporation has great potential for topical delivery of oligonucleotides. Controled therapeutic levels of an intact phosphorothioate oligonucleotide (PS) can be reached in the viable tissue of the skin. The aim of this work was to investigate the transport mechanisms of a PS in hairless rat skin by electroporation, and hence to allow optimization of oligonucleotides (ONs) topical deliv...

This work consists in a numerically evaluation of elastic fields distribution, caused by intrinsic dislocation networks placed at a nanometric trilayers interfaces, in order to estimate their influence on the surface topology during heterostructure operation. The organization of nanostructures is ensured by the knowledge of different elastic fields caused by buried dislocation networks and calc...

Aim of this study was to determine the effect tebuconazole applications on cucumber seedling via morphological and molecular methods. In order most appropriate dose different concentrations (25, 50, 75, 100, 125 150 ppm) affecting quality preventing possible genotoxic effects, retrotransposon motility at all doses determined. Polymorphism rates changes in GTS values were also At applied doses, ...
