This paper describes the work that we did at Indian School of Mines, Dhanbad for FIRE 2012. This year we participated in two tasks: Adhoc Retrieval Task and Morpheme Extraction Task (MET). Within the adhoc task, we participated in two monolingual retrieval activities, namely English and Hindi using Lemur and Indri search engine respectively. We submitted a total of 6 runs (3 in English and Hind...

Abu Shquier Department of Information Science, University of Tabuk, Tabuk, KSA Email: [email protected] Abstract: Arabic stemming is a technique to find the stem or lexical root for Arabic words through the process of eliminating affixes (preffixes, infixes and suffixes) attached to their roots. Several approaches have been implemented to generate the stem of A...

Language identification of social media text still remains a challenging task due to properties like code-mixing and inconsistent phonetic transliterations. In this paper, we present a supervised learning approach for language identification at the word level of low resource BengaliEnglish code-mixed data taken from social media. We employ two methods of word encoding, namely character based an...

invasive cervical resorption is a condition that affects the root surface area below the epithelial attachment. multiple treatment modalities are advocated, involving exposure of the invasive defect, removal of the granulation tissue and sealing with various restorative materials. this report demonstrates conservative treatment of a patient presenting with peri-apical periodontitis in upper rig...

Many studies have shown that language comprehension can activate embodied representations. Whether these studies have shown that embodiment is a necessary and sufficient condition for language comprehension, or whether embodiment can be a matter of depth of processing is a question that has not been answered. Three experiments examined how iconicity and semanticity affected reaction times. Foll...

We present an Extended Named Entity Recognition API to recognize various types of entities and classify the entities into 200 different categories. Each entity is classified into a hierarchy of entity categories, in which the categories near the root are more general than the categories near the leaves of the hierarchy. This category information can be used in various applications such as langu...

Morphological Analyzer is a tool which performs syntactic analysis of a word and finds root form of input inflected word form. Morph analyzer serves as a pre-processing tool for many NLP applications. Significant amount of work has been done in this area for many Indian languages but not much work has been reported for Gujarati language. We present Morph analyzer for Gujarati language. The Morp...

Computer language paradigms offer linguistic abstractions and proof theories for expressing program implementations. Similarly, system architectures offer the hardware abstractions and quantitative theories applicable to the execution of compiled programs. Although the two entities are usually treated independently, object-oriented technology can be used to obtain a unifying framework. Specific...
