We introduce the notion of parsing and translation using Database technology. The framework focuses on the notion of “Database Oriented parsing”. We describe the basic notion of linguistic representation using relational tables in SQL and we specify a set of operators on these tables for parsing and translation. The framework provides a flexible mechanism for modeling cross linguistic informati...

BACKGROUND When assessing the concordance between two methods of measurement of ordinal categorical data, summary measures such as Cohen's (1960) kappa or Bangdiwala's (1985) B-statistic are used. However, a picture conveys more information than a single summary measure. METHODS We describe how to construct and interpret Bangdiwala's (1985) agreement chart and illustrate its use in visually a...

We introduce multi-chart geometry images, a new representation for arbitrary surfaces. It is created by resampling a surface onto a regular 2D grid. Whereas the original scheme of Gu et al. maps the entire surface onto a single square, we use an atlas construction to map the surface piecewise onto charts of arbitrary shape. We demonstrate that this added flexibility reduces parametrization dist...

Control charts are used to identify the presence of assignable cause of variation in the process. Non-parametric control chart is an emerging area of recent development in the theory of SPC. Its main advantage is that it does not require any knowledge about the underlying distribution of the variable. In this paper a non-parametric control chart for controlling variability has been developed. I...

We use Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) within a chart-parsing framework for grammar learning. Given an existing grammar G, together with some sentences which G can not parse, we use ILP to nd the \miss-ing" grammar rules or lexical items. Our aim is to exploit the inductive capabilities of chart parsing, i.e. the ability to eeciently determine what is needed for a parse. For each unparsable s...

M.R. Schoenberg and J.G. Scott (eds.), The Little Black Book of Neuropsychology: A Syndrome-Based Approach, DOI 10.1007/978-0-387-76978-3_2, © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2011 Abstract This chapter provides an overview of the medical chart, and its sections. The neuropsychologist will be provided with detailed information about how to decipher some of the many abbreviations, and we als...

Mukherjee and Chakraborti 1 proposed a single distribution-free (nonparametric) Shewhart-type chart based on the Lepage 2 statistic for simultaneously monitoring both the location and the scale parameters of a continuous distribution when both of these parameters are unknown. In the present work, we consider a single distribution-free CUSUM chart, based on the Lepage 2 statistic, referred to as...
