This paper presents stable, radix-2, completely recursive discrete cosine transform algorithms DCT-I and DCT-III solely based on DCT-I, DCT-II, DCT-III, and DCT-IV having sparse and orthogonal factors. Error bounds for computing the completely recursive DCT-I, DCT-II, DCT-III, and DCT-IV algorithms having sparse and orthogonal factors are addressed. Signal flow graphs are demonstrated based on ...

This paper describes our submission to the CoNLL-2016 shared task (Xue et al., 2016) on end-to-end Chinese shallow discourse parsing. We decompose the endto-end process into four steps. Firstly, we define a syntactically heuristic algorithm to identify elementary discourse units (EDUs) and further to recognize valid EDU pairs. Secondly, we recognize explicit discourse connectives. Thirdly, we l...

Mastitis remains the most expensive disease of dairy cows, and antibiotic dry cow therapy (DCT) at dry-off is an important part mastitis control. Regardless infection status, blanket DCT administered to all quarters which controversial due worldwide problem antimicrobial resistance. Even though selective only infected cows a more sustainable approach, choosing animals for treatment not always s...

This paper investigates the external and internal modification devices used by native speakers advanced learners of Greek, when making requests in formal informal situations. The data are drawn from a discourse completion test completed two different groups: one with extended length residence Greece but limited opportunities for interaction more frequent target community. On basis results, it i...

The DiET project provides systematically constructed and annotated test items and associated tools, enabling fast system debugging and evaluation, and automatic linkage from test items to real corpora instances. This paper concentrates on the discourse test suite and its use. The discourse test suite covers discourse phenomena such as pronouns, def-inites and ellipsis. These can be used to eval...

Interaction testing is widely used in screening for faults. In software testing, it provides a natural mechanism for testing systems to be deployed on a variety of hardware and software configurations. In many applications where interaction testing is needed, the entire test suite is not run as a result of time or budget constraints. In these situations, it is essential to prioritize the tests....

Geometry optimization calculations were carried out on the (approximate)X (1)A(1) state of SCl(2) and the (approximate)X(2)B(1), (approximate)A(2)B(2), (approximate)B(2)A(1), (approximate)C(2)A(1), (approximate)D(2)A(2), and (approximate)E (2)B(2) states of SCl(2) (+) at the restricted-spin coupled-cluster single-double plus perturbative triple excitation [RCCSD(T)] level with basis sets of up ...
