Entity resolution (ER) presents unique challenges for evaluation methodology. While crowd sourcing provides a platform to acquire ground truth, sound approaches to sampling must drive labelling efforts. In ER, extreme class imbalance between matching and non-matching records can lead to enormous labelling requirements when seeking statistically consistent estimates of population parameters. Thi...

INTRODUCTION Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic rheumatic disease associated with spinal inflammation that subsequently leads to progression of structural damage and loss of function. The fully human anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) antibody adalimumab reduces the signs and symptoms and improves overall quality of life in patients with active AS; these benefits have been maintained t...

OASIS is an Integrated Project with the aim to revolutionise the interoperability, quality, breadth and usability of services for all daily activities of the elderly, by developing and deploying innovative technological challenges, consisting of a new, open architecture and a hyper-ontological framework. A wide range of applications are integrated in the areas of independent living, socializati...

The pilot production ecosystem deployed by the EU-project OASIS consists of 12 lines (PLs) for manufacture nanomaterials, nano-intermediates and nano-enabled products, intended final lightweight multifunctional based on aluminium polymer composites, construction, energy, automotive aeronautics. intends to deploy this nanomanufacturing under a common umbrella sustainable production, ensure futur...

The major aim of participating in the Web Retrieval Task was to test OASIS to see how well the system supports Japanese Web search. The 10-gigabyte data set was used in our experiments. Because OASIS is a distributed system we simulated distributing data. The collection was divided into ten independent subsets. Results showed that some improvements in the indexing strategy have to be done.

This paper reports the results of NTCIR experiments on Japanese and English text retrieval carried out with the OASIS System. The OASIS system is designed to support multiple languages. The main aim of these experiments is to test particular methods to support Japanese. Results showed that some improvements in the search engine need to be considered. More experiments are needed to test the effe...

This paper describes the framework and development process of adaptive user interfaces within the OASIS project. After presenting a rationale for user interface adaptation to address the needs and requirements of older users, the paper presents and discusses the architecture and functionality of the OASIS adaptation framework, focussing in particular on an advanced library of adaptive widgets, ...

This paper describes our experiences applying a test and evaluation (T&E) service-oriented middleware framework called the Open-source Architecture for Software Instrumentation Systems (OASIS) to the Unified SHIP platform, which is a representative system for next-generation shipboard computing systems. The OASIS service-oriented middleware framework discussed in this paper enables instrumentin...
