Texts encoded using the Text Encoding Initiative Guidelines (TEI) are ideally suited to close examination using a variety of digital methodologies and tools. However, because the TEI is a broad set of guidelines rather than a single schema, and because encoding practices and standards vary widely between collections, programmatic interchange among projects can be difficult. Software that operat...

This paper poses the question, how linguistic corpus-based research may be enriched by the exploitation of conceptual text structures and layout as provided via TEI annotation. Examples for possible areas of research and usage scenarios are provided based on the German historical corpus of the Deutsches Textarchiv (DTA) project, which has been consistently tagged accordant to the TEI Guidelines...

The Text Encoding Initiative (TEI)Guidelines for the Encoding and Interchange of Machine-Readable Texts provide standardized encoding conventions for a large range of text types and features relevant for a broad range of applications. Given the potential challenges of encoding texts in the African languages, it will be important to establish collaboration between the TEI and projects encoding l...

Virus inactivation by ethyleneimines was first introduced more than 30 years ago. Selective targeting of nucleic acids was reported for oligomeric ethyleneimines. In this study, trimeric ethyleneimine (TEI) was used to inactivate minute virus of mice (MVM; Parvoviridae) and Semliki forest virus (SFV; Togaviridae). The pH-dependency of the inactivation kinetics observed with MVM was different co...

This paper deals with the effects of friction material properties on thermoelastic instability (TEI) and the associated dominant deformation mode. Both analytical and finite element models are constructed for determining the variation of the critical speed and the dominant TEI mode. Some important factors, e.g. the nonconductive friction material as well as the symmetric and anti-symmetric TEI ...

potentially sparing SAM for methyla tion of other substrates such as As. We are currently testing this hypothesis in a randomized controlled trial of creatine supplementation. In addition, as Basu et al. (2011) noted, and as we have previously reported (Gamble and Liu 2005), one implication of the observed association between uCr and As methylation capacity is that urinary As should not be expr...

Der Ansatz der Textauszeichnung (“textual markup”) ist zur semantischen Erschließung von Texten des kulturellen Erbes nahezu alternativlos. Die Stärke von Auszeichnungssprachen, die ihren Gegenstand zugleich als sequentielle, als hierarchische und als netzartige Datenstruktur behandeln, kommt insbesondere den komplexen Wiedergabeund Analyse-Anforderungen an historische Texte entgegen. Lokale An...

Peters' anomaly is characterized by a central corneal opacity with corresponding defects in the posterior stroma, Descemet's membrane, and endothelium. We present 2 cases that showed corneal opacity when examined by topical endoscopic imaging (TEI). Case 1 was a 20-day-old neonatal female who had a central corneal opacity in the left eye. TEI showed that the iris stroma was adhered toward the b...
