We present a dependency parser for Persian, called ParsPer, developed using the graph-based parser in the Mate Tools. The parser is trained on the entire Uppsala Persian Dependency Treebank with a specific configuration that was selected by MaltParser as the best performing parsing representation. The treebank’s syntactic annotation scheme is based on Stanford Typed Dependencies with extensions...

A novel technique is introduced for verb and inflection detection in Persian texts. This recognition can be useful for preprocessing phase in natural language processing (NLP) and text mining like partof-speech (POS) tagging and sentence boundary detection (SBD) in Persian texts. Our technique employs structural information of Persian verb for the first phase of this detection and then uses the...

This paper describes the systems submitted by FBK for the MT track of IWSLT 2013. We participated in the EnglishFrench as well as the bidirectional Persian-English translation tasks. We report substantial improvements in our English-French systems over last year’s baselines, largely due to improved techniques of combining translation and language models. For our Persian-English and English-Pers...

introduction: carpal tunnel syndrome (cts) is the most common compressive neuropathy in occupational medicine. it may be presented with numbness, tingling, and motor weakness of the hand. repetitive hand finger motions, repeated extreme bending of the wrist as well as forceful gripping, and repeated forces on the base of the palm and wrist are occupational risk factors associated with cts. this...

Tajik Persian is a dialect of Persian spoken primarily in Tajikistan and written with a modified Cyrillic alphabet. Iranian Persian, or Farsi, as it is natively called, is the lingua franca of Iran and is written with the Persian alphabet, a modified Arabic script. Although the spoken versions of Tajik and Farsi are mutually intelligible to educated speakers of both languages, the difference be...

In a recent paper Cristea and Tichy introduced several types of discrepancies of point sets on the s-dimensional Sierpiński carpet and proved various relations between these discrepancies. In the present paper we prove a general lower bound for those discrepancies in terms of N , the cardinality of the point set, and we give a probabilistic proof for the existence of point sets with “small” dis...

In this paper we describe CARPET, a parallel programming language based on the cellular automata model. CARPET is the language used for programming cellular algorithms in the CAMEL environment. CAMEL is an environment designed to support the development of high performance applications in science and engineering. It offers the computing power of a highly parallel computer, hiding the architectu...

The computation of the Hausdorff measure of fractals is the basic problem in fractal geometry. However, this is very difficult. The genetic algorithm is one of optimization algorithms to resolve complicated problems of wide scope, and has great capabilities in self-organizing, self-adaptation and self-learning. Lifeng Xi professor put forward to the thought of computing the Hausdorff measure of...

this comparative study investigates the iranian exporters and the u.s. importers perception of persian carpet branding strategy in the u.s. market. wong and merrilees conceptual model of international branding strategy (2007) is used as the base model. two separate models for these communities are extracted. results indicated that the two models are different together and with the base model du...
