background :  sequence-based identification of various microorganisms including archaea, bacteria, cyanobacteria, diatoms, fungi, and green algae necessitates an efficient and reproducible genome extraction procedure though which a pure template dna is yielded and it can be used in polymerase chain reactions (pcr). considering the fact that dna extraction from these microorganisms is time consu...

Entity Analysis with Weak Supervision: Typing, Linking, and Attribute Extraction Xiao Ling Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Daniel S. Weld Computer Science and Engineering With the advent of the Web, textual information has grown at an explosive rate. To digest this enormous amount of data, an automatic solution, Information Extraction (IE), has become necessary. Information extrac...

Among the huge number of attributes or features present in real-life data sets, only a small fraction of them are effective to represent the data set accurately. Prior to analysis of the data set, selecting or extracting relevant and significant features is an important preprocessing step used for pattern recognition, data mining, and machine learning. In this regard, a novel dimensionality red...

In this research, we have compared three different attribute selection measures algorithms. We have used ID3 algorithm, C4.5 algorithm and CART algorithm. All these algorithms are decision tree based algorithm. We have got the accuracy of three different algorithms and we observed that the accuracy of ID3 algorithm is greater than C4.5 algorithm. But the accuracy of CART algorithm is greater th...

a solid phase extraction sorbent based on polyaniline/graphene nanocomposite is presented. the structure and morphology of synthesized nanocomposite were investigated by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction and thermal gravimetric analysis. the dispersive solid phase extraction was employed to the isolation and preconcentration ...

The Web has become the most major information source of our daily activities. In this project, we consider a special information need: finding the instance-attribute information from the Web, and particularly, we focus on the instance domain of person. Examples include the contact information (attribute) and research interests (attribute) of faculty or students (person). Most of such personal i...

the study aimed to come up with a list of specific macroalgae species, which could be used to biomonitor specific metal elements in the coastal waters of east africa. water extraction, edta, aqua regia extraction and optimized bcr 3-step sequential extracts were used to mimic bioavailable metals under various environmental conditions. the results indicated that ulva lactuca could be used as a b...

In this paper, we study the problems of opinion expression extraction and expression-level polarity and intensity classification. Traditional fine-grained opinion analysis systems address these problems in isolation and thus cannot capture interactions among the textual spans of opinion expressions and their opinion-related properties. We present two types of joint approaches that can account f...
