I dette foredraget vil vi presentere et prosjekt som nettopp har kommet i gang, og som har fått NOK 1 000 000 fra NorFA til et nordisk nettverk. Prosjektet har to siktemål som henger nøye sammen. Det ene er å bygge nettverk mellom fire forskningsog utviklingsmiljøer ved UiO (Tekstlaboratoriet), UiB (HIT-senteret), GU (Språkdata) og CST. Det andre er praktisk: å utvikle en automatisk navnegjenkj...

This paper provides onvergen e analysis for maximum likelihood estimation of the parameters des ribing a parti ular multi-s ale pro ess known as fra tional Brownian motion. We on entrate on s hemes that `pre-whiten' the available noise orrupted data via the Fast Wavelet Transform and show that su h s hemes are strongly onsistent and asymptoti ally eÆ ient. We also analyse the rate of onvergen e...

Most cities in Germany regularly publish a booklet called \Mietspiegel" that allows calculating an estimate of the fair rent for a at. The Functional Rent Advisor (FRA) extends the functionality and applicability of the \Mietspiegel" for the city of Munich so that the user needs not to give all required information.

With these definitions, mapping TOF resources became feasib...
