Given a coloring f : V (G) → IN of graph G and any subgraph H ⊂ G we define fs(H) = ∑ v∈V (H) f(v). In particular, we denote fs(G) by S(f). The coloring f is called an ICcoloring if for any integer k ∈ [1, S(f)] there is a connected subgraph H ⊂ G such that fs(H) = k. Also, we define the IC-index of G to be M(G) = max{ S(f) : f is an IC-coloring of G }. In this paper we examine some well-known ...

In this paper, we suggest a lattice rescoring architecture that has features of a Trie DB based language model (LM) server and a naïve parameter estimation (NPE) to integrate distributed language models. The Trie DB LM server supports an efficient computation of LM score to rerank the n-best sentences extracted from the lattice. In the case of NPE, it has a role of an integration of heterogeneo...

We outline a scheme for the way in which early vision may handle information about shading (luminance modulation, LM) and texture (contrast modulation, CM). Previous work on the detection of gratings has found no sub-threshold summation, and no cross-adaptation, between LM and CM patterns. This strongly implied separate channels for the detection of LM and CM structure. However, we now report e...

The avian nucleus lentiformis mesencephali (LM) is a visual structure involved in the optokinetic response. The LM consists of several morphologically distinct cell types. In the present study we sought to determine if different cell types had differential projections. Using retrograde tracers, we examined the morphology and distribution of LM neurons projecting to the vestibulocerebellum (VbC)...

background: dental caries is one of the most prevalent infectious diseases affecting humans of all ages. streptococcus mutans has an important role in the development of dental caries by acid production. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the antibacterial and biofi lm disinfective effects of the oak tree quercus infectoria galls against s. mutans. materials and methods: the bacterial st...

background: the aim was to investigate the relationships among lean mass (lm), fat mass (fm), and bone mineral density (bmd) in women stratified by body mass index (bmi) (bmi – normal-weight, overweight, obese) and to determine threshold at which body fat assumes negative relationship with bmd. methods: this was a cross-sectional study in 471 healthy caucasian women, aged 18-67 years. bmd, lm, ...

OBJECTIVES Development of leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)-patients is associated with a poor prognosis. It has been suggested that LM-patients with epidermal growth factor receptor mutated (EGFR+) NSCLC have a superior prognosis compared to EGFR-wild type NSCLC. Studies in EGFR+ NSCLC-patients with LM are scarce. We retrospectively evaluated a multi-institut...

Whether or not abdominal symptoms occur in subjects with small intestinal lactose malabsorption might depend on differences in colonic fermentation. To evaluate this hypothesis, we collected fecal samples from subjects with lactose malabsorption with abdominal complaints (LM-IT, n = 11) and without abdominal complaints (LM-T, n = 8) and subjects with normal lactose digestion (NLD, n = 15). Lact...

Since larger n-gram Language Model (LM) usually performs better in Statistical Machine Translation (SMT), how to construct efficient large LM is an important topic in SMT. However, most of the existing LM growing methods need an extra monolingual corpus, where additional LM adaption technology is necessary. In this paper, we propose a novel neural network based bilingual LM growing method, only...
