Surprising quality is achieved when several lightweight knowledge-based NLP techniques complement mostly shallow, surface-based approaches.

Resisting the temptation of merely porting and integrating existing IE and IR technologies into Q/A systems, the developers of the TREC Q/A systems have not only shaped new processing methods, but also inspired new research in the challenging integration of surface-text-based methods with knowledge-based text inference.


Typically, the templates model queries regarding who did what to whom, when and where, and eventually why.

The idea of building open-domain Q/A systems that perform


Recently, a new trend in information processing from texts has emerged.

The idea of building open-domain Q/A systems that perform on real-world document collections was initiated by the eighth Text REtrieval Conference (TREC-8), by organizing the first competition of answering fact-based questions such as "Who came up with the name, El Niño?".


Textual Question Answering (Q/A) aims at identifying the answer of a question in large collections of on-line documents.

More generally, these systems combine creatively components of the NLP basic research infrastructure developed in the 80s (e.g. the computational theory of Q/A reported in (Lehnert 1978) and the theory of abductive interpretation of texts reported in (Hobbs et al.1993)) with other shallow techniques that make possible the open-domain processing on real-world texts.

If there is any, the blacks' recurring concern lies in the problem of language that serves as barriers for a more open and constructive communication between them and the Filipinos.

For one, schools must deny any possibility that ignorance to others' racial and cultural background may lead to racist remarks from local students as our schools must attend responsibly


Though not really alarming in the sense that blacks would get out of the country, speaking in the local language has been expressed by blacks with a serious tone which at times could be interpreted in a very negative light.


To avoid miscalculations and frictions between locals and blacks, the school administration has to do something in order to ensure that every encounter between locals and foreigners is a potential encounter for friendship and inclusiveness.

Instituting concrete activities and explicit policies that convey and promote social harmony and inter-racial integration to diminish or eradicate racism or discrimination in the campus is not seen as a priority in the Philippine tertiary educational system.


Language barrier is a problematic factor of Filipino-blacks relations in the campus.

The blacks themselves deny being discriminated on account of their color so nobody in the black community complains about it, the schools find it unnecessary to provide and initiate concrete programs and explicit policies that allow more avenues for bonding and recognition between the locals and the blacks.


Color is not the problem, it is the language.

At times, blacks may feel annoyed and insulted when Filipinos speak in Tagalog in their presence depending in the circumstances in which Filipinos do not necessarily intend to.


There are three main speaker change detection approaches [1], [2].

The paper is organized as follows: In Section 2 the DISTBIC algorithm is briefly described.


In order to answer this question, the Kullback-Leibler distance can be used for example.


The speaker changes are then detected as the instants when it is necessary to change the speaker model in order it match the speech signal.

The last approach is the decoder-guided approach.


Finally, a conclusion is given in Section 5.


All terrestrial and extraterrestrial samples of zircon that contain REE exhibit such laser-induced fluorescence emissions at specific wavelengths; those wavelengths are exactly the same for different zircon samples.

Quantification of the degree of structural disorder using Raman microprobe analysis may lead to a better understanding of the thermal history and the redistribution of radiogenic Pb, Th, U and other intermediate daughter products related to the expansion of the zircon structure owing to metamictization.


Proceedings of the 14th Lunar and Planetary Science Conference, in Journal of Geophysical Research, 89, B525-B534.


This supports the interpretation that metamictization is a disorder phenomenon, the end product of which is a glassy state with zircon composition.

One distinctive feature is that DSMC does not necessarily require the use of a discontinuous control strategy [24].

In all the above output feedback sliding mode control schemes, it is an a priori requirement that the system under consideration is minimum phase and relative degree one and that a particular sub-system must be output feedback stabilisable [6].


The results presented in [24], [13] show that an appropriate choice of sliding surface, used with the equivalent control required to ensure sliding, can guarantee a bounded motion about the

Discrete sliding mode control schemes which have restricted themselves to output measurements alone have often been observer based schemes with or without disturbance estimation [17], [25].


The existence problem is considered in Section 3 and a solution to the reachability problem is given in Section 4.


It is required that the discontinuity surface, usually called the sliding surface, is attained from any initial condition in a finite time interval.

As a result, the invariance properties of continuous time sliding-mode control can be lost.

As summarized by Speer (1982), the chemical composition of zircon is complex, and besides Hf, which is always present (concentrations up to 7 wt%), more than 50 other elements have been found in zircon.

We suspect the zircon to be older, perhaps as old as 4.1-4.35 Ga, by analogy to other samples of lunar granite and quartz monzodiorite (Compston et al. 1984; Shih et al. 1985, 1993; Meyer et al. 1989b, 1991).


The different interference colors frequently observed in thin sections of zircon are known to be due to differing levels of α-decay damage.


A close correlation between the concentrations of atoms of P and REE (including Y) in many zircon crystals suggests that most of the REEs are present in the form of phosphate molecules

Fractures extend into the surrounding matrix but appear to be related to the sample's impact history, not to radiation damage in the zircon.


Increasing radiation damage decreases birefringence until the fully metamict crystal is optically isotropic (Sahama 1981).

The mounting medium was Araldite, which does not show any laser-induced fluorescence and thus does not interfere with a successful interpretation of the Raman spectra obtained from the sample.

The study suggested that since blacks' experiences are generally devoid of racism and discrimination, school administrations do not tend to formulate explicit policies and enough activities to ensure racist-free campuses and inter-cultural inclusiveness among Filipinos and the Blacks.

This sudden surge of international students is attributed to the rising tide of schools which are allowed by the government to admit international students, which from 104 schools in 2011, have ballooned into 2,145 in 2012.

Thus, foreign students walking around Philippine campuses are now a common sight, making our academic communities one of the most culturally diverse universities in the world.


In any case, the black students were determined to obtain their degrees here no matter what and such a goal was made easier because of the kind of tertiary academic communities their respective schools offer.

The academic communities of tertiary education, from its teaching and non-teaching personnel, must be responsible enough to pin point sources of racial discrimination in the institutional and interpersonal levels and help them gradually eliminate this social issue through a united effort and various

El valor adicional de esta base, de más de 1 millón de cotizantes, radica también en que se pudo analizar un cohorte de cotizantes que comenzó desde el día 1 (año 1981) a cotizar en el sistema, y que a 2022 ya tenía, potencialmente, 40 años de vida laboral a cuestas.

If the onset demand is met at any point during the wait, the system immediately repeats the phrase.

This sometimes leads to unnatural sequences, such as "Excuse me!


By the way, would you mind [...]" Another important question is how to automatically coordinate the robot's physical pointing gestures when repeating phrases or when phrases are interrupted.

Further tuning of the timings of the pauses, contingent on the dialog state and expectations about when the attention might return, as well as a tighter integration with the engagement model might be warranted.


In other words, the onset demand is checked at the beginning of every phrase in the dialog act.

A first observation is that the usefulness and naturalness of the behaviors triggered by the robot hinges critically on the accuracy of the inferences about attention.


The variability of the wait durations, coupled with variability in the attention estimates and the times when the specified onset or production attentional demand is met, leads to a variety of production behaviors in the robot.

For example, at times participants would shift their visual attention away from the robot as they leaned in and cocked their ear to listen closely.


information specified on the dialog act, but operates at the phrase level.

In an utterance like "By the way, would you mind wiping your badge?", the "By the way" phrase is in fact an attention attractor, and itself does not require attentional demands and thus should be modeled separately.


Firstly,  Kademlia_REQ  are sent to find nodes which are potentially able to deliver the service (according to their place in the DHT).

Presently, as we test the mechanism with few resources, we have defined the KadID and UserID of modified peers to place them in the same tolerance zone.


Finally, checking the reputation for  Kademlia_REQ  would increase the overhead for no advantage.

The more replication there is, the more robust the stored information is and the quicker it is retrieved.


The other requests (search, data download) follow the same scheme.

This delay will occur the first time that a peer connects itself to the network and periodically later to maintain the account in the network despite the churn.


The reputation checking must be done before the specific request for three reasons.

To do that, we have introduced different modifications in the KAD client:


Controlling the reputation at this point allows to revoke independently the different services.

In fact, these functions do the service-oriented revocation, searching for the reputation and checking it.

Uang insentif tambahan penghasilan buat pegawai pembagiannya sama rata saja, Tidak ada pemikiran untuk mengubah kebiasaan yang sudah mengakar dalam organisasi pemerintah daerah."


Keluwesan pada aturan, inovasi, kreativitas, efisiensi, efektivitas dan akuntabilitas selalu menjadi pendorong untuk terciptanya pemerintahan yang bergaya wirausaha selama tidak bertentangan dengan misi yang diemban organisasi.

Dari hasil penilaian tersebut terlihat bahwa pemerintah belum mengembangkan bentuk dan sifat komunikasi dua arah dan terbuka dalam suasana kerja yang kondusif.


Pemerintahan yang bergaya wirausaha tidak memberikan tempat pada budaya paternalistik, hirarki yang kaku dan terpaku pada aturan-aturan yang permanen.


Strategi ini dilakukan dengan mengubah kebiasaan, menyentuh perasaan dan mengubah pikiran atau pandangan seseorang terhadap suatu hal.

Dengan demikian dapat dikatakan bahwa responden berpendapat bahwa pemerintah daerah belum mengembangkan sistem insentif yang mendorong motivasi dan etos kerja pegawai.

Loi NOTRe et déménagement des territoires

Justement, prenons l'exemple de l'Aide à l'Immobilier d'Entreprises (AIE) auparavant gérée par les Services Économiques du Département.


Le gouvernement cultive l'ambivalence et sème tranquillement le chaos.

Cette loi NOTRe ne peut décemment être... nôtre, ici, dans le Jura, département rural et montagnard, et de surcroît deuxième département le plus industriel de France.

Il se trouve que les arbres stylistiques (AS) ont une constitution et une orientation radicalement indépendante des schémas évolutionnistes de la phylogénétique.

Les perspectives statistiques futures, pouvant encore se rattacher à la phylogénétique, seraient donc plus du domaine de la phénétique, qui met en œuvre des rapprochements sur la base de la similitude globale plutôt que de retenir des critères de différenciation comme cela se produit avec la cladistique (Lecointre et Le Guyader, 2009, p. 31-32, p. 539 et 541).

If  Chlamydia  is suspected, it is important to ask if the patient has changed sex partners or had a new sex partner in the last few months.

Key to successful management of  Chlamydia  conjunctivitis is concurrent treatment of both sexual partners so that they donot re-infect one another.


Another approach is to thoroughly review systems, starting at the top with headaches, moving on to upper respiratory and breathing problems, gastrointestinal issues, and sexual partners/urination.

Next, the system identifies a marking bit associated with the field

If the ceiling of M/N is a power of two, the division operation can be accomplished by shifting the array index so that the most significant bits of the array index become the number for the associated marking bits.


As a pseudo-head thread, speculative thread  203  uses indirection to reference space-time dimensioned versions of objects, but does not mark objects or create versions.

If N is too large, a great deal of memory is used for marking bits which can cause cache performance to suffer.

In the case of a field number, the system performs a modulo operation by masking off all but the lower order three bits of field number 1302 to produce a three bit index (0,1,1) that specifies a marking bit.

(See "What are transition metals?" on page 15.)

We have produced nanostructured metal foams of iron, cobalt, silver, and copper, and our nanofoam forming technique can be applied to many other metals.


These materials offer a wide variety of potential applications in, for example, catalysis, fuel cells, and hydrogen storage.

The smallest pores in our metal nanofoams are 10 to 20 nm in diameter, about a thousand times smaller.


For comparison, ultralow-density aluminum foam has a density of 0.08 to 0.16 g/cm³.


At the same time, decomposition gases such as hydrogen and nitrogen, also released by the reaction, blow tiny holes through the coalescing metal to form nanoscopic pores.

2-4  The esophagus lacks a serosal layer, although the lymphatic channels are well-developed, and early-stage esophageal cancer spreads readily into the adjacent organs, thus resulting in an overall poor prognosis.

Recent studies have demonstrated an increase in MCM proteins in malignant tumors such as adenocarcinoma of the lung, colon, and prostate, papillary thyroid carcinoma and endometrial carcinoma.


This poor prognosis issue persists, despite recent improvements in surgical methods and therapeutic agents.


During cell division, it allows only one DNA replication per cycle.

In addition, the speakers spoke often simultaneously.

The accuracy and the false alarm rates achieved for records from the above mentioned test sets using both the DISTBIC and the MDISTBIC algorithms are given in Tables 1, 2, and 3 in detail.


The length of the records ranged from 11 to 20 minutes, each record contained about 94 speaker changes on average.

It outperforms the DISTBIC algorithm both for the radio news where there were long intervals between the speaker changes and for the radio discussions where the speaker changes were relatively very close one another and the speakers often spoke simultaneously.


The length of each record was approximately 30 minutes, each record contained about 105 speaker changes on average.

Two types of errors could happen during the segmentation.


However, more than one local peak on the unsmoothed distance graph may correspond to the speaker change point detected on the smoothed graph (see Figure 2 for illustration).

Speakers in the records did not speak simultaneously and the interval between two consecutive speaker changes was quite long.

The graph is smoothed by a low-pass filtering operation, and then all the significant local maxima are searched because they represent potential speaker change points.

Thus, the local maximum has to fulfill the following condition to be significant:


This process results in a graph of distances with respect to time.

Budaya yang berkembang dalam sebuah lingkungan akan menentukan cara pandang seseorang terhadap sesuatu hal.

Kendati pandangan pejabat pemerintah daerah Kabupaten Buton tidak merepresentasikan pandangan pejabat birokrasi, temuan dari penelitian ini setidak-tidaknya memberikan gambaran mengenai rendahnya pengetahuan pejabat birokrasi terhadap ide, konsep maupun paradigma baru penyelenggaraan pemerintahan modern.


Hal ini dikarenakan pengembangan budaya merupakan suatu yang sangat sulit dan memerlukan waktu yang cukup lama.

Hubungan antara atasan dan bawahan yang kaku, komunikasi searah yang tidak sehat, sistem insentif yang tidak menumbuhkan inovasi dari kreativitas pejabat menyebabkan rasa malas dari setiap pejabat untuk mengembangkan pengetahuannya.


Dilihat dari semua indikator yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini, pemahaman dan pengetahuan pejabat pemda Kabupaten Buton terhadap konsep pemerintahan yang bergaya wirausaha (entrepreneurial government) masih sangat rendah, sebagaimana ditunjukkan dengan rendahnya pemahaman dan pengetahuan tentang prinsip costumer oriented (pemerintah yang berorientasi pada masyarakat).

Conde-Rioll  et al.  (2018), determined that the leaf extract of  Lepidium latifolium  showed antitumor activity against HT-29, a cultured human colon cancer cell line.

They found that seed germination was highest in light (30% after 14 days) environment and light/dark alternating environments.

In a review study (Matera et al., 2003) also demonstrated that reduced lactate production during exercise is another function of L-Carnitine supplementation.

In the present study, perhaps the acetyl CoA/CoA ratio in the muscle was not influenced, ultimately not disrupting the accumulation of lactate.


Another major finding of this investigation was that administration of 1.5 grams of L-carnitine did not affect on Performance time and Blood lactate concentrations.

However, a study (Chun Y, 2008) reported that 2g per day of Carnitine might not have a positive effect on lactate accumulation in Judoists.


Increased fatty acid oxidation decreases fatigue upon Carnitine activation, and especially, lactate accumulation caused peripheral fatigue is decreased (Siliprandi et al., 1990).

This implies that there is a close relationship between the amount of Carnitine intake and lactate recovery based upon subjects' characteristics.


action for explaining the ergogenic effects of caffeine.

The difference in the type of applied tests for measuring power (cycling, running, swimming) and the degree of caffeine consumption(5-6mg/kg and 250 mg) probably have led causing of this contradictory of the results.


From the previous data, we find that CAF can induce an increase of FFA in blood and spare glycogen in the liver and muscle (LeBlanc, Jobin et al., 1985), and CAR can increase fat utilization by the transport of long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondrial matrix for β-oxidation (Broquist & Borum, 1982).

In an investigations (Lee, Paik et al., 2003) also reported that 4g per day of Carnitine causes significantly lowers the blood lactate concentration.

FAA-ISSUED AIRMAN CERTIFICATE INELIGIBILITY BASED ON SECURITY GROUNDS

"Future services could also include ordering replacement certificates, replacement knowledge test results, and a copy of the airman's complete certification file," he said.


The Civil Aviation Registry in Oklahoma City manages and operates the national records system and database for the issue of all FAA airman certificates and the legal content of all airman certification records.

For airmen, Privacy Act information is not included, and addresses are not shown for airmen who chose not to have their address released.


The new service would not only allow airmen to receive this information electronically, but would save the FAA a part of the significant expense associated with printing and mailing many of these safety bulletins, said Mark Lash, Registry manager.

Databases may be downloaded which include all information for aircraft.


The site has many other aircraft and airmen information options and averages nearly 2,500 visitors daily.

They issue more that 60,000 aircraft registration certificates and 180,000 airman certificates, and answer more than 140,000 telephone calls.

While the restraint-priming procedure was in effect, the frequency of crawling was reduced to zero or less than once daily for both children.

Approximately 1.5 yr later, two of the three children were still enrolled in the nursery school program; the restraint procedure, however, had been discontinued for at least a year.


During the final phases of training, the children crawled no more than once daily, or less than 10% of the time spent in locomotion, a level acceptable for children of that age.

The training procedures should be easily administered in most settings with retarded children.


This was not true of the combined procedure, during which walking increased as the child reduced crawling.

After restraint and priming were used in combination, restraint seemed effective alone.


The teachers' estimate of crawling before training was 35 for CT and 15 for JR.

This low frequency of crawling was reached in about 15 days for both children and was maintained for the next 30 days while training remained in effect.

No wash steps are required because cellular growth media do not significantly interfere with CyQUANT ®  GR fluorescence.

CyQUANT ®  Direct Cell Proliferation Assay Kit


The CyQUANT ®  assay is linear from 50 or fewer cells to at least 50,000 cells in 200 μL volumes (Figure 15.4.12); increasing the dye concentration extends the linear range to at least 250,000 cells.

Time-course assays are simplified because data obtained from stored samples taken at widely different time intervals can be assayed together with a single standard curve determination.


The kit supplies sufficient materials for performing 1000 assays based on a 200 μL sample volume or a proportionately lower number of assays with a larger sample volume.

The no-wash, homogeneous format and fast add-mix-read protocol makes the CyQUANT ®  Direct assay ideal for high-throughput screening (HTS) applications.


The CyQUANT ®  assay is reliable for cell quantitation, even without treatment to eliminate cellular RNA.

We have found the CyQUANT ®  Cell Proliferation Assay Kit to be useful for assaying widely disparate cell types, including:

However, radiographs showed no evidence of increased instability at the lower drive achieved in LD-102 in agreement with previous Atlas experiments at LANL.

Throughout the LD series, shot operations became smoother and more efficient, indicating that the Atlas system was successfully relocated and that the new BN operating team was rapidly gaining experience with the pulsed-power operating environment.


LD-102 had two objectives: (1) to demonstrate that Atlas can conduct physics experiments at 2-week intervals and (2) to continue the investigation of instability physics in imploding liner systems, specifically by changing the drive conditions to explore perturbation growth.

The diagnostic suite for LD-102 was similar to that for LD-101.


2-week intervals and (2) to continue the investigation of instability physics in imploding liner systems

The Spall test series is designed to provide detailed information about the formation and evolution of damage in a well-characterized reference material (aluminum) using the converging geometry characteristic of the operation of a nuclear weapon.


LD-102 explored liner performance at lower current delivery (more-gentle drive) than LD-101.

After benchmarking the results of the NTS Spall experiments against data collected using the same techniques and parameters in Los Alamos, the series will explore recollection and

This has included expanded funding through the Home and Community-Based Waiver, increased in-home and family support services, and expanded out-of-home residential services.

Individuals were grouped by low, medium, and high intensity services and categorized in terms of services being asked for; needed; currently receiving; and in need of more.


Counties also reported using various methods of tracking and controlling their waiting lists.

Data was then analyzed by Temple University regarding three broad categories used to classify need: Emergency (persons needing services immediately);


Pennsylvania, like most other states, has waiting lists for mental retardation services.

In recent years, it was estimated that approximately 22,000 to 28,000 persons were on such waiting lists in counties across Pennsylvania.


Also, the study gathered information to document how counties across the state report, track, and control their waiting list data.

Following a pilot test, phase II of the study began with a statewide distribution of the PUNS form to be completed by each of the 45 county MH/MR programs on each individual designated by the county to be waiting for service.


The study identified five main methods used by counties.

By April 1999, data was received from each county program on each person identified on a waiting list.


Goodwin (1981) highlights a variety of coordination mechanisms that speakers use to achieve mutual orientation at the beginning and throughout turns, such as pausing, adding phrasal breaks, lengthening spoken units, and even changing the structure of the sentence on the fly to secure the listener's attention.

Goodwin (1981) presents sample snippets of conversations recorded in the wild, annotated to show when the gaze of a listener turns to meet the gaze of the speaker


Following a brief review of related work, we describe the proposed approach in more detail in Section 3.


(marked with an  underline). In the examples reproduced below from Goodwin's work, pauses and repeats are used to align grammatical sentences with a listener's gaze:

The model centers on computing whether the listener's attention matches a set of attentional demands for the utterance at hand.


Inspired by studies of human-human conversations, we present methods for incrementally coordinating speech production with listeners' visual foci of attention.

While most work to date in spoken dialog systems has focused on the acoustic channel in physically situated multimodal systems, an opportunity arises to use vision to take the participants' attention into account when coordinating on the production of system utterances.


Participants in a conversation coordinate with one another on producing turns, and often co-produce language by using verbal and non-verbal signals, including gaze, gestures, prosody and grammatical structures.

smart system for detecting video deepfakes

Two methods were proposed to extract features from visual video frames and audio modalities, respectively.


These methods produced useful spatial information for visual video and valuable time-frequency information for audio, which improved the performance of the deepfake detection method.

It proved that using bimodal information boosts learning during training compared to the method that ignores intercorrelation between modalities.


video frames, audio, and the whole video

The proposed method is implemented using the Python programming language.


Moreover, a concatenate layer that is applied to the features extracted from visual video and audio modalities produced an informative bimodal representation of videos.

In addition, the GRU-based attention mechanism, which is applied to the visual video, audio, and bimodal features, assisted in capturing the most important temporal information of videos.


The accuracy and loss curves of the proposed method

Furthermore, Fig. 9 shows the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the AUROC curve of the proposed method performance.


The cross-entropy loss (l) function is utilized to measurethe efficiency of the suggested deepfake

Additionally, it has a precision of 100%, recall of 95.10%, F1-score of 97.49%, and specificity of 100% for detecting audios.


Motion parameters were used as covariates within this model to remove the influence subject motion on the subsequent results.

One-sample t-tests revealed that translational and rotational movements were significantly less (p < 0.05) than criterion for all axes and conditions except Z-axis translations


Finally, the timecourse of the MR signal was determined in the voxel that showed the local maximum correlation to presentation of the visual stimulus (in visual cortex) or administration of cocaine (in the anterior cingulate).

Analysis via a paired t-test revealed that basal plasma cortisol levels did not differ across these different days


each condition was averaged across all three subjects.

The powers of these tests were 0.058, 0.085, 0.096, 0.058, and 0.095, respectively.


For these analyses realignment parameters were transformed by taking the absolute value of the difference from one acquisition to the next and therefore represent absolute motion across acquisitions.

To objectively assess the effectiveness of the training procedure in minimizing any stress to the subject, physiological and endocrine measurements were taken, in fully acclimated subjects, over 2 h sessions in either the custom fMRI apparatus or in a standard primate chair (with the exception of the respiratory rate data—see Section 2).


Fig. 4 shows transformed realignment parameters across the three translational and rotational axes, assuming rigid body motion, averaged across the three subjects.

5-Azacytidine (Aza) and its derivative 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (DAC) are DNA methyltransferase inhibitors (DNMTi) that are therapeutically used in hematological malignancies, which might be an attractive strategy to promote Treg stability.

Previous in vitro research primarily focused on Treg induction by DAC from naive conventional

We found that in vitro activation of Treg in the presence of DAC led to a significant inhibition of Treg proliferation, but not of Tconv.
