This work suggests an architecture that uses Java Native Interface to improve the performance of Java Domain Transformation applications. It also shows how to make possible the independency between image formats and each domain transformation.

In the typical Web applications each intelligent database agent can be defined as a Knowledge system (KS) with a global ontology, which integrates a number of source data distributed in Web by traditional extensional mappings, and must be robust enough in order to take in account the incomplete and locally inconsistent information of its sources. The traditional extensional semantics for mappin...

Topic features are useful in improving text summarization. However, independency among topics is a strong restriction on most topic models, and alleviating this restriction can deeply capture text structure. This paper proposes a hybrid topic model to generate multi-document summaries using a combination of the Hidden Topic Markov Model (HTMM), the surface texture model and the topic transition...

A fundamental problem in analyzing complex multilevel-structured periodontal data is the violation of independency among the observations, which is an assumption in traditional statistical models (e.g., analysis of variance and ordinary least squares regression). In many cases, aggregation (i.e., mean or sum scores) has been employed to overcome this problem. However, the aggregation approach s...
