OBJECTIVE The aims of this study were to use a 3-dimensional (3D) system to compare molar relationship assessments performed from the buccal and lingual aspects, and to measure differences in occlusal contact areas between Class II and Class I molar relationships. METHODS Study casts (232 pairs from 232 subjects, yielding a total of 380 sides) were evaluated from both the buccal and lingual a...

the roots of the relationships between arabs and iranians are returned to the pre-historic era and the exchanges, communications and cooperations in their social, economical and cultural lives, reveals the strongest ties between these two nations. the appearance of islam caused the spread of arabic language in iran ,in such a way it spreaded all over iran and the iranian elites and authors deve...

Multi-lingual generation starts from non-linguistic content representations for generating texts in different languages that are equivalent in meaning. In contrast, cross-lingual generation is based on a language-neutral content representation which is the result of a linguistic analysis process. Non-linguistic representations do not reflect the structure of the text. Quite differently, languag...

We present a method for translating semantic relationships between languages where relationships are defined as pattern clusters. Given a pattern set which represents a semantic relationship, we use the web to extract sample term pairs of this relationship. We automatically translate the obtained term pairs using multilingual dictionaries and disambiguate the translated pairs using web counts. ...

Description logics and other formal devices are frequently used as means for preventing or detecting mistakes in ontologies. Some of these devices are also capable of inferring the existence of inter-concept relationships that have not been explicity entered into an ontology. A prerequisite, however, is that this information can be derived from those formal definitions of concepts and relations...

The research focuses on automatic construction of multi-lingual domain-ontologies, i.e., creating a DAG (directed acyclic graph) consisting of concepts relating to a specific domain and the relations between them. The domain example on which the research performed is Organized Crime. The contribution of the work is the investigation of and comparison between several data sources and methods to ...

Entity alignment is the task of finding entities in two knowledge bases (KBs) that represent the same real-world object. When facing KBs in different natural languages, conventional cross-lingual entity alignment methods rely on machine translation to eliminate the language barriers. These approaches often suffer from the uneven quality of translations between languages. While recent embedding-...

OBJECTIVES This study evaluated the relationship of the lingual nerve with the adjacent anatomical structures of the mandibular third molar region, influencing the dentist to be aware of the variability of these relationships. MATERIAL AND METHODS Samples of 24 human corpse half-heads were selected and divided according with the presence or absence of the mandibular third molars. The lingual ...

Social network services (SNSs) have become new global and multilingual information platforms due to their popularity. In SNSs with content-sharing functionality, such as "retweets'' in Twitter and "share'' in Facebook, posts are easily and quickly shared among users, and some grow into large information cascades. Accompanied with such growth, cascades can spread over regions and languages. The ...
