We present an approach for extractive, query-focused, singledocument summarisation of medical text. Our approach utilises a combination of target-sentence-specific and target-sentence-independent statistics derived from a corpus specialised for summarisation in the medical domain. We incorporate domain knowledge via the application of multiple domain-specific features, and we customise the answ...

There are known biocatalytic pathways to produce many common fuels and petrochemicals. These biocatalysts can be either enzymes or living microorganisms. The challenge is to produce these fuels and chemicals efficiently and economically. Critical parameters include feedstock Costs, yield, rate and downstream processing. Here we will examine several immobilized biocatalyst reactor designs that w...

In this paper we address two key challenges for extractive multi-document summarization: the search problem of finding the best scoring summary and the training problem of learning the best model parameters. We propose an A* search algorithm to find the best extractive summary up to a given length, which is both optimal and efficient to run. Further, we propose a discriminative training algorit...

Pharmacognostic studies on leaf of Polygonum glabrum Willd. has been carried out along with its numerical values, fluorescence characteristics and ash and extractive values.

there are various methods for the analysis of potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate in food products, but a rapid and reliable method for identification of these preservatives in doogh (an iranian traditional dairy drink) is a procedure, in which high performance liquid chromatography (hplc) utilized and followed by uv diode array detection of the two preservatives. the aim of this case study w...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to diagnose ectopic pregnancy in the early period by measuring cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA) levels in maternal blood using spectrophotometry. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty patients with ectopic pregnancy and 30 patients with first trimester intrauterine pregnancy were enrolled in this prospective controlled study. cffDNA levels in maternal serum were measure...
