BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS In many Dutch hospitals, open access referral for colonoscopy is authorized by a gastroenterologist after screening a standard referral letter (SRL) without face-to-face contact with the patient. We investigated the added value of a 7.5 min outpatient consultation with a gastroenterologist (OC), regarding the patient indications, priority for colonoscopy, and the frequ...

This paper presents an application of Chinese syntactic knowledge for semantic role labeling (SRL). Besides basic morphological information, syntactic structures are crucial in SRL. However, it is difficult to learn such information from limited, small-scale, manually annotated training data. Instead of manually increasing the size of annotated data, we use a large amount of automatically extra...

© 2014 Soojong Lim et al. 429 http://dx.doi.org/10.4218/etrij.14.0113.0645 Semantic role labeling (SRL) is a task in naturallanguage processing with the aim of detecting predicates in the text, choosing their correct senses, identifying their associated arguments, and predicting the semantic roles of the arguments. Developing a high-performance SRL system for a domain requires manually annotate...

One deficiency of current shallow parsing based Semantic Role Labeling (SRL) methods is that syntactic chunks are too small to effectively group words. To partially resolve this problem, we propose semantics-driven shallow parsing, which takes into account both syntactic structures and predicate-argument structures. We also introduce several new “path” features to improve shallow parsing based ...

The present study analyses the variations of the skin resistance level (SRL) during 48 h of total sleep deprivation (TSD) and its relationship to body temperature, self-informed sleepiness in the Stanford Sleepiness Scale (SSS), and reaction time (RT). All of the variables were evaluated every 2 h except for the SSS, which was evaluated every hour. A total of 30 healthy subjects (15 men and 15 ...

We present a sub-millisecond dynamic optical path set up scheme for the multi-mode switching router. In particular, we have implemented the proposed integrated multi-mode scheduler in FPGA hardware in an optical switching testbed, and have demonstrated application triggered real-time sub-millisecond optical path setup. Another key contribution is that the proposed approach brings out the practi...

This exploratory quantitative study investigates the relationship between online learning readiness (OLR) and self-regulated (SRL), precisely effect of OLR on SRL in an context among 262 Chinese college students taking fully courses. Results indicate that students’ positively influences SRL. Specifically, communication competencies play most significant role affecting SRL, followed by technical...

2 The purpose of this chapter is to evaluate the relation between the 21 st Century Competencies (21CC) and self-regulated learning (SRL). The 21CC framework emerged out of efforts to improve and reform educational systems in order to better prepare students to be for 21 st Century Skills, 2009a, 2009b). Within this framework, competencies move beyond simple content area knowledge or skills to ...

Interest in statistical relational learning (SRL) has grown rapidly in recent years. Several key SRL tasks have been identified, and a large number of approaches have been proposed. Increasingly, a unifying framework is needed to facilitate transfer of knowledge across tasks and approaches, to compare approaches, and to help bring structure to the field. We propose Markov logic as such a framew...
