Translation of named entities (NEs), such as person, organization, country, and location names is very important for several natural language processing applications. It plays a vital role in applications like cross lingual information retrieval, and machine translation. Web and news documents introduce new named entities on regular basis. Those new names cannot be captured by ordinary machine ...

There have been few replicated examples of genotype x environment interaction effects on behavioral variation or risk of psychiatric disorder. We review some of the factors that have made detection of genotype x environment interaction effects difficult, and show how genotype x shared environment interaction (GxSE) effects are commonly confounded with genetic parameters in data from twin pairs ...

in this paper we study the existence of commuting regular elements, verifying the notion left (right) commuting regular elements and its properties in the groupoid g(n) . also we show that g(n) contains commuting regular subsemigroup and give a necessary and sucient condition for the groupoid g(n) to be commuting regular.

found in iran, alburnoides bipunctatus and alburnus filippii. the chromosomes of these species were compared using giemsa staining and silver-staining (ag) techniques to describe the karyotypes. both species possess 2n = 50 chromosomes with no detected sex heteromorphism. the karyotypes were distinct, composed of 7 pairs of metacentric, 10 pairs of submetacentric, and 8 pairs of subtelo-acrocen...

In this paper, we have investigated the dependence of the spectral entanglement and indistinguishability of photon pairs produced by the spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) procedure on the bandwidth of spectral filters used in the detection setup. The SPDC is a three-wave mixing process which occurs in a nonlinear crystal and generates entangled photon pairs and utilizes as one of th...

We give lower bounds on the largest singular value of arbitrary matrices, some of which are asymptotically tight for almost all matrices. To study when these bounds are exact, we introduce several combinatorial concepts. In particular, we introduce regular, pseudo-regular, and almost regular matrices. Nonnegative, symmetric, almost regular matrices were studied earlier by Ho¤man, Wolfe, and Ho¤...

This paper presents a novel algorithm which generates three-dimensional face point trajectories for a given speech le with or without its text. The proposed algorithm rst employs an o -line training phase. In this phase, recorded face point trajectories along with their speech data and phonetic labels are used to generate phonetic codebooks. These codebooks consist of both acoustic and visual f...

In this paper, we introduce a novel method for quantization of line spectral frequencies (LSF) converted from mth order linear prediction coefficients. In the proposed method, the interframe correlation of LSFs is exploited using matrix quantization where N consecutive frames are quantized as one m-by-N matrix. The voicing-based multi-mode operation reduces the bit rate by taking advantage of t...
