--Text Normalization is an essential module for Text-to-Speech (TTS) system as TTS systems need to work on real text. This paper describes Myanmar number normalization designed for Myanmar Text-to-Speech system. Semiotic classes forMyanmar language are identified by the study of Myanmar text corpus and Weighted Finite State Transducers (WFST) based Myanmar number normalization is implemented. N...

Myanmar is adjacent to India, Bangladesh, Thailand, Laos and China. In Myanmar, the prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections is 6.5% and accounts for 60% of hepatocellular carcinoma. HBV has nine genotypes that have been identified by molecular genetic analysis. HBV genotypes are associated with several clinical features. We reviewed the prevalence of HBV genotypes in Myanmar and neighb...

Myanmar language has been significantly influenced by Pali language due to the practice of Buddhism and study of Buddhist literature in Myanmar. As a result, Pali words have been widely adopted and used in Myanmar language. This study presents an algorithm for identifying Myanmar-adopted Pali words in Myanmar text. The system employs a combination of rule-based syllable segmentation and a dicti...

This paper describes a context free grammar (CFG) based grammatical relations for Myanmar sentences which combine corpus-based function tagging system. Part of the challenge of statistical function tagging for Myanmar sentences comes from the fact that Myanmar has free-phrase-order and a complex morphological system. Function tagging is a pre-processing step to show grammatical relations of Mya...

"Killing men, shooting them, slaughtering children, raping women, burning and looting houses" these are only some human rights crimes that occur against Muslims in Myanmar but up to now, none of the international community has made a substantial contribution. In 2001, International Law Commission realized that the UN charter did not have much success in overcoming human rights violations,...

This paper presents Myanmar phrases translation model with morphological analysis. The system is based on statistical approach. In statistical machine translation, large amount of information is needed to guide the translation process. When small amount of training data is available, morphological analysis is needed especially for morphology rich language. Myanmar language is inflected language...

This paper describes the use of Naive Bayes to address the task of assigning function tags and context free grammar (CFG) to parse Myanmar sentences. Part of the challenge of statistical function tagging for Myanmar sentences comes from the fact that Myanmar has free-phrase-order and a complex morphological system. Function tagging is a pre-processing step for parsing. In the task of function t...

Myanmar language and script are unique and complex. Up to our knowledge, considerable amount of work has not yet been done in describing Myanmar script using formal language theory. This paper presents manually constructed context free grammar (CFG) with “111” productions to describe the Myanmar Syllable Structure. We make our CFG in conformity with the properties of LL(1) grammar so that we ca...

BACKGROUND Lymphatic filariasis (LF) is a mosquito-borne disease caused by mosquito-transmitted filarial nematodes, including Wuchereria bancrofti and Brugia malayi. The Lymphatic Filariasis Elimination Program in Thailand has reduced the prevalence of nocturnally subperiodic W. bancrofti (Thai strain), mainly transmitted by the Ochlerotatus (Aedes) niveus group in Thailand to 0.57/100,000 popu...
