This notebook paper documents the approach adopted by our team for Author Masking Task in PAN 2016. For the purpose of masking the identity of the author, we use a simple translation based approach. From the source language (English), the text is translated to an intermediate language before it gets finally translated back to English. In this process, depending on the translation model and vari...

In 1890 the pathologist William Russell reported spherical forms in histopathologic sections from cancer which he interpreted as "the parasite of cancer." These forms were subsequently discredited as microbial forms but have became known to every pathologist as "Russell bodies." Identified in a wide variety of disease states, these forms are now widely considered to be immunoglobulins. This pap...

INTRODUCTION This short review covers a wide selection of topics from a multidisciplinary area of dynamics of nonequilibrium systems in physics, chemistry, biology. Theoretical models of colloid particle and protein deposition and adhesion at surfaces, accompanied by relaxation processes, of reaction kinetics with and without diffusion, of phase coarsening and nucleation, will be surveyed. The ...

Fuzzy systems were designed to compute with uncertainties and linguistic information and allow us to develop mathematical tools for information processing. Artificial immune systems (AIS) consist of methods inspired by the biological immune system and designed for solving real-world problems. This work integrates these two kinds of systems, proposing a novel AIS for discovering fuzzy classifica...

The underlying research topics and the architecture of the UBU team are briefly described. The aim of developing UBU is to subject a series of tools and procedures for agent decision support to a dynamic realtime domain. The current version of the UBU team is written in Java.

The localization of intracerebral dipole sources for detecting pathological events is one object of magnetoencephalography (MEG). To facilitate interactive evaluation of MEG data arti-cial neural network models are used. Trained on simulated examples with superimposed noise they are able to predict the so-called \goodness of t" of real data in contrast to minimization algorithms, which are iter...

scientific journals provide a platform for reviewing, publishing and dissemination of the results of new scientific findings and discoveries and cannot be replaced by any other platform. given the important role of scientific journals in dissemination of information, management of such journals takes a high priority. the accurate management of scientific journals takes place only when the diffe...

Business organisations are facing increasing competition both locally and globally. One of the strategies that is being used to meet this competition is the formation of strategic alliances with suppliers. This paper addresses the control approaches needed to sustain and control the reciprocal, mutually supportive relationships in these supply chains. Transaction cost theory is used to examine ...

and reliability mandates extra capacity, fail-safes, and standard operating procedures, but especially attention to the team. Engineering also embraces ‘cognitive ergonomics’ to maximize mental processes (awareness, perception, reasoning) and expedite individualized responses. ‘Teamwork’ provides a useful prism through which to examine cognitive workload, decision making, reliability (vs safety...

distances Different distances between two given vectors Description These functions are used for calculating different distances between two given vectors. Thus, L1.dist calculates the L1 distance, cosin.dist calculates the cosine distance, euclidian.dist computes the Euclidian distance, and rank.cor.dist computes the rank correlation distance. The vectors have to have same length. When using r...
