a study was undertaken to determine effect of nutritional value of melon husk (mh) and palm oil slurry (pos) on quality of chevon obtained from west african dwarf (wad) goats fed finishing diets as follows: diet 1(0% mh, 0% pos); diet 2 (50% mh, 0% pos); diet 3 (0% mh, 50% pos) and diet 4 (50% mh, 50% pos), along with panicum maximum as basal diet for all dietary treatment groups. after 60 days...

Chinese Word Segmentation(WS), Name Entity Recognition(NER) and Part-OfSpeech(POS) are three important Chinese Corpus annotation tasks. With the great improvement in these annotations on some corpus, now, the robustness, a capability of keeping good performances for a system by automatically fitting the different corpus and standards, become a focal problem. This paper introduces the work on ro...

Part-of-Speech (POS) Tagging is a process that attaches each word in a sentence with a suitable tag from a given set of tags. POS Tagging is important in various areas of Natural Language Processing. Different methods of automating the process have been developed and employed for English and other Western languages. Some similar work, most of which utilize the stochastic approaches for POS Tagg...

In this paper we describe a framework for classifying and annotating Egyptian Arabic Multiword Expressions (EMWE) in a specialized computational lexical resource. The framework intends to encompass comprehensive linguistic information for each MWE including: a. phonological and orthographic information; b. POS tags; c. structural information for the phrase structure of the expression; d. lexico...

We present a web-based algorithm for the task of POS tagging of unknown words (words appearing only a small number of times in the training data of a supervised POS tagger). When a sentence s containing an unknown word u is to be tagged by a trained POS tagger, our algorithm collects from the web contexts that are partially similar to the context of u in s, which are then used to compute new ta...

Purpose Nurses' turnover intention has become a major issue in developing countries with high power distance cultures. Therefore, the authors attempt to investigate how among nurses' can be reduced through paternalistic leadership (PL). The further mediating role of job satisfaction between associations benevolent, moral and authoritarian dimensions PL intention. Finally, examined perceived org...

In this paper, we present a parallel literary corpus for Serbian, English and French, the TALC-sef corpus. The corpus includes a manually-revised pos-tagged reference Serbian corpus of over 150,000 words. The initial objective was to devise a reference parallel corpus in the three languages, both for literary and linguistic studies. The French and English sub-corpora had been pos-tagged from th...

This paper presents a method for bootstrapping a fine-grained, broad-coverage part-of-speech (POS) tagger in a new language using only one personday of data acquisition effort. It requires only three resources, which are currently readily available in 60-100 world languages: (1) an online or hard-copy pocket-sized bilingual dictionary, (2) a basic library reference grammar, and (3) access to an...

Proofs of storage (including Proofs of Retrievability and Provable Data Possession) is a cryptographic tool, which enables data owner or third party auditor to audit integrity of data stored remotely in a cloud storage server, without keeping a local copy of data or downloading data back during auditing. We observe that all existing publicly verifiable POS schemes suffer from a serious drawback...
