Parallel corpora are the bread and butter of a number of machine translation technologies. Therefore, important efforts are regularly spent in acquiring new ones. This task often involves a rather cumbersome manual inspection and it is rather difficult to set up a strategy that fits all the needs. We thus developed PARADOCS, a system aiming at doing this automatically. Our solution exploits num...

A critical, yet not very well studied problem in medical applications is the issue of accurately labeling patient records according to diagnoses and procedures that patients have undergone. This labeling problem, known as coding, consists of assigning standard medical codes (ICD9 and CPT) to patient records. Each patient record can have several corresponding labels/codes, many of which are corr...

Web includes digital libraries and billions of text documents. A fast and simple search through this sizeable set is important for users and researchers. Since manual or rule based document classification is a difficult, time consuming process, automatic classification systems are absolutely needed. Automatic text classification systems demand extensive and proper training data sets. To provide...

Background: Dentistry requires long hours of static body postures while executing activities in which permanently forced loads influence the musculoskeletal system. Methods: 25 dentists were recruited where neck pain or fatigue was assessed subjectively using NRS and Borg CR10 scale respectively pressure threshold upper trapezius muscle objectively a handheld algometer pre- post- intervention. ...

Continuously Heated Greenhouses: A production or retail greenhouse with a constantly maintained temperature of 50 degrees F or more during winter months. Such greenhouse must also have a maintenance attendant on duty at all times or an adequate temperature alarm system to provide warning in the event of a heating system failure. In addition, the greenhouse roof material must have a thermal resi...

Less ergonomic work postures such as bending and squatting have the potential to pose risks. When muscles receive static loads repeatedly for a long time, it causes complaints of damage joints, ligaments, tendons commonly referred musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) or injuries system. This study aimed determine level risk performed by workers in each activity using Rapid Entire Body Assessment (R...
