interrelated combination of philosophy and practice" (p. 41). When speaking of conception, Trogawa accepts the Western biological notion of the union of semen and ovum (p. 48), which, as pointed out by Nawang Dakpa in his paper, 'Certain problems of embryology according to the Tibetan medical tradition' (pp. 82-95), is unknown to traditional Tibetan medicine (p. 84). Nawang Dakpa deals with som...

Mongolian gerbils and Wistar rats were inoculated orally with 240 and 2,500 Toxocara cati embryonated eggs, respectively, to evaluate the larval recovery in different tissues and organs, such as the liver, lungs, heart, kidney, and skeletal muscles after 5, 30, 49, 70, and 92 days post-infection (PI). Larval recovery rates were 1.7-30.0% in Mongolian gerbils on days 5-92 PI and 0.2-3.8% in rats...

Traditional Mongolian Unicode Encoding has serious problems as several pairs of vowels with the same glyphs but different pronunciations are coded differently. We expose the severity of the problem by examples from our Mongolian corpus and propose two ways to alleviate the problem: first, developing a publicly available Mongolian input method that can help users to choose the correct encoding a...

Deedu (DU) Mongolians, who migrated from the Mongolian steppes to the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau approximately 500 years ago, are challenged by environmental conditions similar to native Tibetan highlanders. Identification of adaptive genetic factors in this population could provide insight into coordinated physiological responses to this environment. Here we examine genomic and phenotypic variati...

In this paper we present an attempt to build a test collection for Mongolian IR as well as some preliminary tests about the key issues in Mongolian Information Retrieval: using a stoplist and using word stemming. Our preliminary tests will show that while these basic operations on Mongolian can bring slight improvements in retrieval effectiveness, many problems remain. The results using stemmin...

The significance of the cafe-au-lait spot in the diagnosis of certain disorders of childhood is still not as widely appreciated as it should be, partly due to lack of information as to the normal incidence of such pigmentation, and partly to confusion over its relation to other forms of congenital pigmentation. The varieties of congenital melanin pigmentation of the skin consist of a number of ...

The article looks at language contacts between the Kalmyk and of Oirats living in Mongolia sphere lexis. lexical layer analyzed is landscape vocabulary. For comparison, materials from old-written Mongolian, Khalkha-Mongolian, Buryat languages were used. presence similar words testifies existence so-called general Mongolian former one people separated time space.

In the past seven years, Language Research Institute of Inner Mongolia University has constructed a 500,000word scale Mongolian dependency treebank. The syntactic treebank provides a favorable data platform for language research and information processing. In order to effectively use the treebank, we have designed and implemented a graphical syntactic information retrieval system based on the M...

Telomeric DNA repeats are key features of chromosomes that allow the maintenance of integrity and stability in the telomeres. However, interstitial telomere sites (ITSs) can also be found along the chromosomes, especially near the centromere, where they may appear following chromosomal rearrangements like Robertsonian translocations. There is no defined role for ITSs, but they are linked to DNA...

In this article a modification of the algorithm of the fuzzy ART network, aiming at returning it supervised is carried out. It consists of the search for the comparison, training and vigilance parameters giving the minimum quadratic distances between the output of the training base and those obtained by the network. The same process is applied for the determination of the parameters of the fuzz...
