Translation of the output of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems, also known as speech translation, has received a lot of research interest recently. This is especially true for programs such as DARPA BOLT which focus on improving spontaneous human-human conversation across languages. However, this research is hindered by the dearth of datasets developed for this explicit purpose. For Eg...

Rickets is not a new disease to Egypt. Its existence dates back to ancient times. Drawings in old Egyptian tombs show that rickets existed in the times of the Pharaohs (Ruffer, 1921). Until recently (Dicks, 1922) the disease was considered to be rare in Egypt. Shawki (1928), however, demonstrated that rickets is prevalent in this country. Nearly 50 per cent. of all Egyptian infants between the ...

The Erdős–Moser equation is a Diophantine equation proposed more than 60 years ago which remains unresolved to this day. In this paper, we consider the problem in terms of divisibility of power sums and in terms of certain Egyptian fraction equations. As a consequence, we show that solutions must satisfy strong divisibility properties and a restrictive Egyptian fraction equation. Our studies le...
