Erratum Erratum to " Generating functions and duality for integer programs " ଁ In this paper, the integral sign ' ' has been used in several places, whereas the correct entry would have been 'int', the abbreviation for 'interior'.

MOTIVATION Abbreviations are an important type of terminology in the biomedical domain. Although several groups have already created databases of biomedical abbreviations, these are either not public, or are not comprehensive, or focus exclusively on acronym-type abbreviations. We have created another abbreviation database, ADAM, which covers commonly used abbreviations and their definitions (o...

We study the relation between the liquidity of the firm’s assets and the liquidity of financial claims on the assets, thereby linking corporate finance decisions to stock liquidity. Our model highlights an ambiguous relationship. While greater asset liquidity reduces uncertainty regarding valuation of assets-in-place, it increases future investments and the associated uncertainty. The model sho...

We would like to submit the following correction to our recently published paper [1] due to the error in illustration of the abbreviation eFORGE. The details are as follows:[...].

Background. We recently reported that sodium channel block can produce opposite effects on action potential duration (APD) and refractoriness in epicardial versus endocardial tissues of the canine ventricle. In addition, strong sodium channel current inhibition was found to cause loss of the action potential dome in epicardium but not endocardium, thus inducing a marked dispersion of repolariza...

To the Editor: We have noticed an inadvertent error in our article. In Figure 1, an abbreviation is misspelled. We have attached a corrected version of Figure 1. We apologize for any inconvenience that it may have caused.

Normalizing named entity abbreviations to their standard forms is an important preprocessing task for question answering, entity retrieval, event detection, microblog processing, and many other applications. Along with the quick expansion of microblogs, this task has received more and more attentions in recent years. In this paper, we propose a novel entity abbreviation generation method using ...

The volume of biomedical text is growing at a fast rate, creating challenges for humans and computer systems alike. One of these challenges arises from the frequent use of novel abbreviations in these texts, thus requiring that biomedical lexical ontologies be continually updated. In this paper we show that the problem of identifying abbreviations' definitions can be solved with a much simpler ...
