In this paper, we describe a system for the CoNLL-X shared task of multilingual dependency parsing. It uses a baseline Nivre’s parser (Nivre, 2003) that first identifies the parse actions and then labels the dependency arcs. These two steps are implemented as SVM classifiers using LIBSVM. Features take into account the static context as well as relations dynamically built during parsing. We exp...

This paper examines a polymorphism mechanism which allows abstraction over evolving types. Although inclusion polymorphism is often quoted as being such a mechanism, this holds only for record types, for which constructor the inclusion relation matches the way types evolve in a long-lived system. This paper formalises the idea of evolution in the type space by the notion of extension, based upo...

SUMMARY GEIGER is a new software package, written in the R language, to describe evolutionary radiations. GEIGER can carry out simulations, parameter estimation and statistical hypothesis testing. Additionally, GEIGER's simulation algorithms can be used to analyze the statistical power of comparative approaches. AVAILABILITY This open source software is written entirely in the R language and ...

Auction fever is a frequently observed phenomenon in traditional and Internet auctions. However, traditional approaches of auction theory often neglect the in uence of emotions. In this paper we discuss a uni ed framework for emotional bidding in auctions and identify challenges for future auction fever research. In particular, we identify interdependent utilities and product characteristics as...

Software clone refactoring has been studied from many perspectives, including empirical research on clone refactoring history, IDE support for tracking clone change, and recommendation systems for clone management. Most of the work relies on having access to and being able to analyze the history of clone refactoring. However, refactoring cloned code is not equivalent to clone management, as cod...

Rational and logical answers have been the basis of all the sciences. Many questions in the understanding of psychiatric psychopathology and symptoms are rationally understood and a lot more are revealing due to the development of modern investigative techniques. Genetic factors are under active and extensive research for better understanding of psychiatric illnesses. And these approaches have ...

ing hormone and follicle stimulating hormone with a low oestradiol concentration confirm menopausal status. In peri­ menopause, some menstrual bleeding may still be occurring, and luteinising hormone, follicle stimulating hormone and oestradiol may be normal, or only follicle stimulating hor­ mone may be raised. If there is any doubt about perimeno­ pausal status, blood tests should be repeated...
