Aim: To evaluate the histological changes and immune response of conjuctiva in patients (pts) with lo S.S. Materials and Methods: We studied conjunctiial biopsies from 15 pts with I0 S.S. and 2 normal controls using 1) paraflfn section screening for the quality of conjunctival epithelium (CE), the number of goblet cells (GC) and the degree of inflammation, 2) Mo-abs and Pabs to: Tlymphocytes, T...

Technical feasibility and promise of practical use for querying databases in natural 1 anguage (for example, English) has been demonstrated by a large number of experimental systems, and the commercial availability of at 1 east one such system. Yet natural 1 anguage continues to be the most controversi al among the 1 anguage interfaces that have been proposed for direct interaction with databas...

In this paper we examine the convergence rates in an adaptive version of an orthonormalization method for approximating the conformal map ping f of an annular region A onto a circular annulus In particular we consider the case where f has an analytic extension in compl A and for this case we determine optimal ray sequences of approximants that give the best possible geometric rate of uniform co...

In this paper we shortly survey some loop transformation techniques which break anti or output dependences, or artiicial cycles involving such \false" dependences. These false dependences are removed through the introduction of temporary buuer arrays. Next we show how to plug these techniques into loop parallelization algorithms (such as Allen and Kennedy's algorithm). The goal is to extract as...

Automation of office work constitutes a new growing appl ication of information systems. The original characteri stics of an Office Information System (OIS) in comparison with a conventional information system imply the need for devel opi ng new design methodol ogies and model s, which are cl assified and discussed in this paper. OIS are not just document management systems (or word processing ...

Le dénombrement de la population, dénominateur nombreux indicateurs statistiques, est crucial pour les politiques publiques d'un pays. Il du ressort des instituts nationaux statistique d’en organiser collecte, le plus souvent par biais d’un recensement. Que se passe-t-il lorsqu’une partie territoire n’est pas accessible aux agents recenseurs ? Actuellement...

Cette étude se propose d’analyser aussi bien l’adoption des services financiers mobiles (SFM) que l’intensité de cette adoption dans la ville Yaoundé. Plus précisément, sur base données recueillies auprès 1200 individus, elle tente, premièrement, dresser le profil adoptants SFM selon leurs différents modes d’adoption; deu...

A proposal for CSE 190A Projects in Vision & Learning, Winter 2006 is presented. The proposal is intended for the suggested project in recognizing cars, with specific attention to the tasks of detection of car manufacturer logos/insignias and classify car colors into familiar color categories. The paper contains the student background information and the general approach conceived in order to c...
