Data wanted on phenology

Forms Wanted: Training SMT on Monolingual Data

We propose and evaluate a simple technique of “reverse self-training” for statistical machine translation. The technique allows to extend target-side vocabulary of the MT system using target-side monolingual data and it is especially aimed at translation to morphologically rich languages.

Lilac and honeysuckle phenology data 1956–2014

The dataset is comprised of leafing and flowering data collected across the continental United States from 1956 to 2014 for purple common lilac (Syringa vulgaris), a cloned lilac cultivar (S. x chinensis 'Red Rothomagensis') and two cloned honeysuckle cultivars (Lonicera tatarica 'Arnold Red' and L. korolkowii 'Zabeli'). Applications of this observational dataset range from detecting regional w...

Diagnosis Wanted

Wanted—Skulls

In order to determine the characters of a race, it is necessary that comparison should be made of at least twenty skulls. It is further desirable to have as many of the bones of the skeleton as possible, as comparison of pelvic and long bones give important results in determining race peculiarities. The Hunterian Museum, now under the direction of Professor Flower, F. E. S., is especially inter...

Effects of climate change and cultivar on summer maize phenology

To identify countermeasures to the effects of climate warming on crop production, we mustunderstand the changes in crop phenology and the relationships between phenology and climatechange and cultivar. We used summer maize phenological and climate data in the North ChinaPlain, collected from 1981 to 2010. This study analyzed the spatiotemporal trends inphenological data and lengths of different...
