The usage of single geographical footprint model in existing Geographical Information Retrieval (GIR) system will cause many problems like overestimation or underestimation of the geographical scopes for documents to search. To be honest, the single geographical footprint model is not applicable in modern GIR system although it is simple, fast and widely applied today. In order to improve the q...

Background: Methane emission from the ruminants is receiving global attention due to its warming potential. It imposes development of cost-effective and easily adoptable energy reduce methane emissions ruminants. Apart this, information available on methanogenic microflora their populations in Indian native cattle also very limited. In this study, normal Gir was studied using molecular methods ...

In this paper we describe our Geographic Information Retrieval experiments with Forostar, our GIR application on the GeoCLEF 2007 corpus and query set. We compare the results from orthogonal text with no geographic entities and only geographic entities with standard text retrieval and combined text and geographic relevance methods. The text and named entity analysis and retrieval methods of For...

In this demonstration we will examine the effectiveness of Geographic Information Retrieval (GIR) methods in digital library interfaces. We will show how various types of information may benefit from explicit geographic search, and where text-based place name search may be sufficient. We will also show how implicit geographic search (or geographic browsing) can be used to dynamically generate g...

Metonymic location names refer to other, related entities and possess a meaning different from the literal, geographic sense. Metonymic names are to be treated differently to improve performance of geographic information retrieval (GIR). This paper presents a method for disambiguating location names in textual information to distinguish literal and metonymic senses, based on shallow features. T...

Objective: To evaluate liver regeneration modulated by ischemic preconditioning after ischemia, reperfusion and partial hepatectomy. Methods: We used 24 Wistar rats of 12 weeks of age, which were randomly assigned into four groups: control (SHAM), hepatectomy (HEP), ischemia and reperfusion (IRG) and Ischemic Preconditioning (SRG). Analyses were made on liver enzymes ALT and AST, assessment of ...

SolanumdiphyllumL. (Solanaceae) is a perennial shrubreported here for the first timewas formerly seen in different districts of Gujaratstate like Morbi, Gir-Somnath, and Baroda. A brief description species along withflowring fruiting period, remarks photographs are provided easy identification species.

Brazilian dairy Gir (Bos indicus) cattle are a tropical, well-adapted breed, for which no information on the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is presently available. The second exon of the bovine lymphocyte antigen (BoLA-DRB3) was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of DNA samples from 28 Brazilian dairy Gir cows. Two experimental genotyping approaches were used: direct sequencin...
