A picture of a doctor doing rounds in the countryside seems very distant from science, and yet even with all the achievements of biomedicine, the image of a doctor seeing a patient remains a very powerful symbol. It represents seminal interface at which medical science is adjusted to the individual’s needs. For centuries, medicine has been seen as both science and art. In the technological era,...

This paper elucidates and explains an ancient midrash (rabbinic interpretation of a biblical text) through the lens of modern psychological theory. The midrash describes Moses' reactions to his approaching death. The paper points out that these reactions anticipate the five classic stages, described by Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, of coming to accept terminal illness: denial, anger, bargaining, depre...

We describe the structure of a space-efficient phrase table for phrasebased statistical machine translation with the Moses decoder. The new phrase table can be used in-memory or be partially mapped on-disk. Compared to the standard Moses on-disk phrase table implementation a size reduction by a factor of 6 is achieved. The focus of this work lies on the source phrase index which is implemented ...

Moses is a well-known representative of the phrase-based statistical machine translation systems family, which are known to be extremely poor in explicit linguistic knowledge, operating on flat language representations, consisting only of tokens and phrases. Treex, on the other hand, is a highly linguistically motivated NLP toolkit, operating on several layers of language representation, rich i...

This paper describes Chinese–Japanese translation systems based on different alignment methods using the JPO corpus and our submission (ID: WASUIPS) to the subtask of the 2015 Workshop on Asian Translation. One of the alignment methods used is bilingual hierarchical sub-sentential alignment combined with sampling-based multilingual alignment. We also accelerated this method and in this paper, w...

The growing request for high-quality applications for embedded systems demands model-driven approaches that facilitate their design as well as the verification and validation activities. In this paper we present MOSES, a model-driven performance analysis methodology based on Foundational UML (fUML). Implemented as an executable model library, MOSES provides data structures, as Classes, and algo...
