We propose a new customizable tool, Language Independent Feature Extractor (LIFE), which models the inherent patterns of any language and extracts relevant features of the language. There are two contributions of this work: (1) no labeled data is necessary to train LIFE (It works when a sufficient number of unlabeled documents are given), and (2) LIFE is designed to be applicable to any languag...

recoveries of 49 mg (23%), 56 mg (25%), 18 mg (10%), and 6 mg (50%), respectively. Thus, the official method of filtration resulted in an average loss of oil and grease of 25% of the values determined by the proposed method. Two effluents (3 and 4) were precipitated by the method in this paper but extracted by the Soxhlet method and gave 16 and 5% low values, respectively. In addition, contamin...

Fuzzy extractors are a powerful tool to extract randomness from noisy data. A fuzzy extractor can extract randomness only if the source data is discrete while in practice source data is continuous. Using quantizers to transform continuous data into discrete data is a commonly used solution. However, as far as we know no study has been made of the effect of the quantization strategy on the perfo...
