Research on inconsistency-tolerant query answering usually assumes that the terminological knowledge is correct, and only the facts (ABox) need to be repaired. In this paper we study the problem of answering instance queries over inconsistent ontologies, by repairing the whole knowledge base (KB). Contrary to ABox repairs, when KB repairs are considered, instance checking in DL-LiteHorn w.r.t. ...

We report on a phonetic analysis of instances of spontaneous phonological error repair sampled from Dutch spontaneous speech. We investigate whether phonological error repairs can be ‘prosodically marked’ and what factors constrain repair prosody. Previous studies of ‘prosodic marking’ in self-repair have suggested that while lexical error repairs are regularly realized with marked prosody, pho...

background: recurrence rate of rotator cuff tears is still high despite the improvements of surgical techniques, materials used and a better knowledge of the healing process of the rotator cuff tendons. large to massive rotator cuff tears are particularly associated with a high failure rate, especially in elderly. augmentation of rotator cuff repairs with extracellular matrix or synthetic patch...

AIM Review of our experience and to develop an algorithm for salvage procedures in the management of hypospadias cripples and treatment of urethral strictures following hypospadias repair. METHODS This is a retrospective review of hypospadias surgeries over a 41-month period. Out of a total 168 surgeries, 20 were salvage/re-operative repairs. In three children a Duplay repair was feasible, wh...

Interpreting fttUy natural speech is an important goal for spoken language understanding systems. However, while corpus studies have shown that about 10% of spontaneous utterances contain selfcorrections, or REPAIRS, little is known about the extent to which cues in the speech signal may facilitate repair processing. We identify several cues based on acoustic and prosodic analysis of repairs in...
