UNLABELLED Clinical trials involve multi-site heterogeneous data generation with complex data input-formats and forms. The data should be captured and queried in an integrated fashion to facilitate further analysis. Electronic case-report forms (eCRF) are gaining popularity since it allows capture of clinical information in a rapid manner. We have designed and developed an XML based flexible cl...

this paper is in search of designing the cellular manufacturing systems (cmss) under dynamic and flexible environment. cm is proper for small-to-medium lot production environment that helps the companies to produce variable kind of productions with at least scraps. the most important benefits of cm are decline in material handling, reduction in work-in-process, reduction in set-up time, increme...

This paper describes the Nara Institute of Science and Technology’s system for the entrance exam pilot task of CLEF 2013 QA4MRE. The core of the system is a similar to the system for the main task of CLEF 2013 QA4MRE. We use minimum error rate training (MERT) to train the weights of the model and also propose a novel method for MERT with the addition of a threshold that defines the certainty wi...

NRC’s Portage system participated in the English-French (E-F) and French-English (F-E) translation tasks of the ACL WMT 2010 evaluation. The most notable improvement over earlier versions of Portage is an efficient implementation of lattice MERT. While Portage has typically performed well in Chinese to English MT evaluations, most recently in the NIST09 evaluation, our participation in WMT 2010...
