Multi-lingual generation starts from non-linguistic content representations for generating texts in different languages that are equivalent in meaning. In contrast, cross-lingual generation is based on a language-neutral content representation which is the result of a linguistic analysis process. Non-linguistic representations do not reflect the structure of the text. Quite differently, languag...

The conventional lingual arch is a nonfunctional fixed space maintainer used in the mandibular arch to maintain arch length by the prevention of mesial movement of the permanent first molars. This study highlights a functional lingual arch with a hinge-type lockable dentulous component that incorporates molar tubes, with various advantages over the conventional lingual arch. How to cite this ...

Lingual thyroid is a developmental anomaly caused by undescended thyroid tissue at the base of the tongue. Lingual thyroid is found predominantly in females and comprises 90% of ectopic thyroid tissue (1). In the majority of patients, the lingual thyroid is the only functioning thyroid gland tissue. Therefore early diagnosis with imaging techniques is clinically important to avoid permanent hyp...

The practice of cross-lingual transfer of speech technology is of increasing concern as the demand for recognition systems in multiple languages grows. Previous work has proved that: firstly, if there is a big difference between the source language and the target language, cross-lingual adaptation may not outperform scratch training even if the training set is limited; secondly, cross-lingual s...

This article deals with the problem of Cross-Lingual Text Categorization (CLTC), which arises when documents in different languages must be classified according to the same classification tree. We describe practical and cost-effective solutions for automatic Cross-Lingual Text Categorization, both in case a sufficient number of training examples is available for each new language and in the cas...

OBJECTIVES This study evaluated the relationship of the lingual nerve with the adjacent anatomical structures of the mandibular third molar region, influencing the dentist to be aware of the variability of these relationships. MATERIAL AND METHODS Samples of 24 human corpse half-heads were selected and divided according with the presence or absence of the mandibular third molars. The lingual ...

In this paper, we build mono-lingual and cross-lingual emotion recognition systems and report performance on English and German databases. The emotion recognition system uses biologically inspired auditory attention features together with a neural network for learning the mapping between features and emotion classes. We first build mono-lingual systems for both Berlin Database of Emotional Spee...
