PURPOSE This study compares clinical and radiographic outcomes of operatively managed pediatric supracondylar humerus fractures between patients treated by pediatric orthopedists (POs) and patients treated by non-pediatric orthopedists (NPOs). PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective cohort study of pediatric patients with surgically managed supracondylar humerus fractures was conducted. For clin...

Although perceived organizational support (POS) and organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs) have long received research attention, little is known of the effects of POS and OCBs in the IS usage context, specifically in the context of enterprise resource planning (ERP) continuance. In this study, the authors integrate three research streams, including POS, OCBs, and ERP continuance intention...

The neural representation of directional heading is conveyed by head direction (HD) cells located in an ascending circuit that includes projections from the lateral mammillary nuclei (LMN) to the anterodorsal thalamus (ADN) to the postsubiculum (PoS). The PoS provides return projections to LMN and ADN and is responsible for the landmark control of HD cells in ADN. However, the functional role o...

The aim of our paper is to study the interest of part of speech (POS) tagging to improve speech recognition. We first evaluate the part of misrecognized words that can be corrected using POS information; the analysis of a short extract of French radio broadcast news shows that an absolute decrease of the word error rate by 1.1% can be expected. We also demonstrate quantitatively that traditiona...

Ensuring consistency of Part-Of-Speech (POS) tagging plays an important role in the construction of high-quality Chinese corpora. After having analyzed the POS tagging of multi-category words in large-scale corpora, we propose a novel classification-based consistency checking method of POS tagging in this paper. Our method builds a vector model of the context of multi-category words along with ...

Tibetan Part of Speech (POS) tagging, the foundation of Tibetan natural language processing, judges word classification according to contextual information of words. Based on the framework of the maximum entropy model, the paper studied the fusion of morphological features for Tibetan part of speech with maximum entropy model with the integration of word clustering features. Experimental result...

Ensuring consistency of Part-of-Speech (POS) tagging plays an important role in constructing high-quality Chinese corpora. After analyzing the POS tagging of multi-category words in largescale corpora, we propose a novel consistency check method of POS tagging in this paper. Our method builds a vector model of the context of multicategory words, and uses the k-NN algorithm to classify context v...

Base Phrase Chunking (BPC) or shallow syntactic parsing is proving to be a task of interest to many natural language processing applications. In this paper, A BPC system is introduced that improves over state of the art performance in BPC using a new part of speech tag (POS) set. The new POS tag set, ERTS, reflects some of the morphological features specific to Modern Standard Arabic. ERTS expl...

The therapeutic efficiency and safety of the proteolytic enzyme bromelaine obtained from pineapple (Bromelain-POS, Ursapharm GmbH, Saarbrücken, Germany) was evaluated in children under the age of 11 years diagnosed with acute sinusitis. Data from 116 patients from 19 centres located across Germany were analysed in a pharmacoepidemiological cohort study. Patient cohorts were either treated with ...

Language models for speech recognition concentrate solely on recognizing the words that were spoken. In this paper, we advocate redefining the speech recognition problem so that its goal is to find both the best sequence of words and their POS tags, and thus incorporate POS tagging. To use POS tags effectively, we use clustering and decision tree algorithms, which allow generalizations between ...
