The ‘Hungarian inventory control model’ was initiated by Prékopa [1965. Reliability equation for an inventory problem and its asymptotic solutions. In: Prékopa, A. (Ed.), Application of the Mathematics to Economics. Publication House of the Hungarian Academy of Science, pp. 317–327] and Ziermann [1964. Application of Smirnov’s theorems for an inventory control problem. Publications of the Mathe...

The molecular defects in the catalase gene, levels of m-RNA and properties of the residual catalase studied by scientists are reviewed in human (Japanese, Swiss and Hungarian) and non-human (mouse and beagle dog) acatalasemia with reference to the bioinformatics. Japanese acatalasemia-I, the G to A transition at the fifth position of intron 4 of the catalase gene, limited the correct splicing o...

We present a language-independent method for automatic diacritic restoration. The method focuses on low computational resource usage, making it suitable for mobile devices. We train a decision tree classifier on character-based features without involving a dictionary. Since our features require at most a few characters of context, this approach can be applied to very short text segments such as...

It is an honour that a Hungarian central banker has been invited to represent the out EU countries in this panel. Maybe I will not make a big mistake if I assume that this is somehow linked to the fact the Hungary is the President of the EU Council in the first half of 2011. I will focus on three 3 major topics: governance, efficiency and integration. I will speak primarily about Hungarian aspe...

In this paper, we describe the first English–Hungarian parallel corpus annotated for light verb constructions, which contains 14,261 sentence alignment units. Annotation principles and statistical data on the corpus are also provided, and English and Hungarian data are contrasted. On the basis of corpus data, a database containing pairs of English–Hungarian light verb constructions has been cre...

Objectives: The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) is a widely used screening instrument. The purpose of this study was to evaluate reliability and validity of the Hungarian translation. Methods: The English version of the HADS was translated using the 'forward-backward' procedure. The questionnaire was used in a large scale study of 678 Hungarian cancer patients along with other scre...

Hungarian paleostomatology as the part of dental anthropology exists since the middle of the last century, together with the paleodontical research in the world. The name paleostomatology comes from a Hungarian scientist, György Huszár. The article has the following chapters: Introduction (what is paleostomatology, and its importance), First studies in the world, Nomenclature, The bases of Hung...

Background The Hungarian draft is a horse breed with a recent mixed ancestry created in the 1920s by crossing local mares with draught horses imported from France and Belgium. The interest in its conservation and characterization has increased over the last few years. The aim of this work is to contribute to the characterization of the endangered Hungarian heavy draft horse populations in order...

The allocation of software development tasks is a critical management activity in distributed development projects. One of the most important problem is to find the lowest-cost way to assign tasks in global software development, which can be solved by Hungarian algorithm. However, the original Hungarian algorithm only assume that a task can only be solved by one development site. The assumption...
