The standard architecture of an NLG system proposed in (Reiter and Dale, 2000) is schematized in Figure 1.1. The tool used by a module and the data structure of its output are not defined precisely. According to Reiter and Dale, they vary from one author to the other one. However, we believe that certain tools broadly used by the AI or NLU community are appropriate for NLG tasks. So, we reformu...

son In his article ‘‘Pas d’éponyme pour les médecins nazis’’, Dr. Halioua called for the separation of eponyms associated with Nazi physicians from the diseases which carry their names [1]. I would like to echo this appeal. In some cases the responsibility the named physician had for human rights abuses and war crimes has been made very clear, as in the case of Hans Reiter. In others the direct...

A membrane filtration technique with commercially available membrane filters (Millipore Corp.) was effective for the removal of Reiter treponemes from liquids such as fluorescent-antibody conjugates, to which the organisms are added for adsorption. Reiter treponemes from an 8-day culture were not microscopically detectable in filtrates through membranes with a pore diameter of 0.45 mum, but tre...

Serum samples obtained from 59 persons who had acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis, periodontitis, syphilis, or Lyme disease were tested against Treponema phagedenis biotype Reiter, Treponema denticola, Treponema vincentii, and Treponema scoliodontum by indirect fluorescent-antibody staining methods. Although there were positive reactions for sera representing each of these study groups and...

Resumo: Relato de um caso de síndrome de Reiter em paciente jovem, do sexo masculino, com lesões dermatológicas típicas e achado positivo para o antígeno do complexo de histocompatibilidade HLA-B27. O quadro surgiu após infecção intestinal por Salmonella enteritidis, evoluindo com melhora após utilização de tetraciclina, prednisona e indometacina. Episódio recidivante foi tratado com metotrexat...

In this paper, we provide several characterisations for uniform amenability concerning a family of finitely generated groups. More precisely, show that the Hulanicki–Reiter condition can be weakened in directions, including cardinalities supports and certain operator norms.
