Cadmium (Cd) is a widespread soil contaminant threatening human health. As an ideal energy plant, sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) has great potential in phytoremediation of Cd-polluted soils, although the molecular mechanisms are largely unknown. In this study, key factors responsible for differential Cd accumulation between two contrasting sweet sorghum genotypes (high-Cd accumulat...

A graph-based approach to document classification is described in this paper. The graph representation offers the advantage that it allows for a much more expressive document encoding than the more standard bag of words/phrases approach, and consequently gives an improved classification accuracy. Document sets are represented as graph sets to which a weighted graph mining algorithm is applied t...

An investigation into the use of negation in Inductive Rule Learning (IRL) for text classification is described. The use of negated features in the IRL process has been shown to improve effectiveness of classification. However, although in the case of small datasets it is perfectly feasible to include the potential negation of all possible features as part of the feature space, this is not poss...
