Oxford Elbow Score (OES) is a patient-reported questionnaire used to assess outcomes after elbow surgery. The aim of this study was to validate and adapt the OES into Persian language. After forward-backward translation of the OES into Persian, a total number of 92 patients after elbow surgeries completed the Persian OES along with the Persian DASH and SF-36. To assess test-retest reliability, ...

BACKGROUND Considering the difficulties in diagnosing bipolar disorder in clinical practice and lack of needed screening instruments in Persian language, the present study aimed at assessing sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values for the Persian Bipolar Spectrum Diagnostic Scale.

Sorting Persian strings is a common challenge for many users that develop web-based database applications. This issue occurs more frequently while using Persian data. To the best of our knowledge almost many versions of several DBMS do not support Persian strings sorting properly. In this paper we present a Java pattern for solving this issue. Our object-oriented solution consists of three clas...

In this paper we propose a summarization approach, nicknamed AZOM, that combines statistical and conceptual property of text and in regards of document structure, extracts the summary of text. AZOM is also capable of summarizing unstructured documents. Proposed approach is localized for Persian language but easily can apply to other languages. The empirical results show comparatively superior r...

In this paper we present an introduction to the Persian language and its morphology, and describe available resources for Persian text processing. We then propose and evaluate an information retrieval model, a variation of the vector space model which uses the relations existing between query terms. Our experiments on the Hamshahri collection show that the proposed model has better precision fo...

In this paper we introduce an unsupervised learning approach for WordNet construction. The whole construction method is an Expectation Maximization (EM) approach which uses Princeton WordNet 3.0 (PWN) and a corpus as the data source for unsupervised learning. The proposed method can be used to construct WordNet in any language. Links between PWN synsets and target language words are extracted u...

a bilingual corpus is considered as a very important knowledge source and an inevitable requirement for many natural language processing (nlp) applications in which two languages are involved. for some languages such as persian, lack of such resources is much more significant. several applications, including statistical and example-based machine translation needs bilingual corpora, in which lar...
