Detecting the location entities mentioned in Twitter messages is useful in text mining for business, marketing or defence applications. Therefore, techniques for extracting the location entities from the Twitter textual content are needed. In this work, we approach this task in a similar manner to the Named Entity Recognition (NER) task focused only on locations, but we address a deeper task: c...

Previous work by Verhelst describing an equivalent mathematical argument for analysing binary matrices, but with different implementation and reasoning, was inadvertently omitted from the reference list of this Article and should have been cited in instances where multiple swap methods were mentioned. For example, in the Introduction section, Verhelst should have been cited as follows: ‘Thus, d...

The rich structure of the set of dyadic PFW’s has been presented in [6]. As mentioned in [6, Remark 3.7], the subclass of the so called non-W0-frames with various levels of W0-linear independence (denoted by P0,+ in [6]) needs extra attention. The recent observation in [4] on W0-Schauder bases enables us to properly restructure this subclass (P0,+) and to show that it contains a wealth of examp...

Integrity is mentioned as a warranty of authenticity of information; it is also connected with protection against unauthorized interference. Availability...

This paper is devoted to discuss the energy-momentum for static axially symmetric spacetimes in the framework of teleparallel theory of gravity. For this purpose, we use the teleparallel versions of Einstein, Landau-Lifshitz, Bergmann and Möller prescriptions. A comparison of the results shows that the energy density is different but the momentum turns out to be constant in each prescription. T...

lishment of a biofilm, which can be avoided by disinfection of the machine with a solution of chlorine (250 ppm). We apply chlorine disinfection in our systems every 2 weeks. The water filter is replaced weekly by a sterilized 0.2 μm membrane filter. The literature mentioned in Russell’s review, the results from our experiments, and the precautions for recontamination mentioned above made us de...

This spontaneous activity recruits a large population of neurons and propagates like a wave over a wide region of the central nervous system. Here, we review spontan...
