For the task of assigning labels to an image to summarize its contents, many early attempts use segment-level information and try to determine which parts of the images correspond to which labels. Best performing methods use global image similarity and nearest neighbor techniques to transfer labels from training images to test images. However, global methods cannot localize the labels in the im...

the water framework directive (wfd) is a far-reaching piece of european communitylegislation. estimates of the benefits of wfd programs are needed at the present time for two reasons. first,the wfd itself allows for derogations from the general requirement of member states to reach good ecological status in all water bodies by 2015 in cases where the costs of doing so can be shown to be disprop...

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in steels of multi-phase structures, composed of a ferritic matrix, in which islets occur, that contain bainite-B, martensite-M and the untransformed austenite-A 1-9 . The multi-phase structure of steel with untransformed austenite promotes the increase of plasticity induced by the phase transformation – the TRIP effect 3-4, 6-8 . In steels con...

A crucial obstacle is that there is no labeled corpus available that is suitable for learning to resolve scope ambiguities. As a consequence, we’ve had to generate our own data set by (a) selecting sentences appropriate to our purposes, and (b) hand-labeling the sentences selected. We recognize that this represents a methodological compromise: our results would carry more weight if the training...
