This article presents a study of lemmatisation of flexible multiword expressions in Lithuanian. An approach based on syntactic analysis designed for multiword term lemmatisation was adapted for a broader range of MWEs taken from the Dictionary of Lithuanian Nominal Phrases. In the present analysis, the main lemmatisation errors are identified and some improvements are proposed. It shows that au...

Studies of collaborative public management have relied on a number of concepts that are time-bound. Collaborative networks rely on trust and stable expectations – both elements that have strong temporal elements. Despite this attention, there has been less research into the evolution of collaborative relationships than one would expect – especially using large-N quantitative methodologies. This...

Much previous research on multiword expressions (MWEs) has focused on the tokenand typelevel tasks of MWE identification and extraction, respectively. Such studies typically target known prevalent MWE types in a given language. This paper describes the first attempt to learn the MWE inventory of a “surprise” language for which we have no explicit prior knowledge of MWE patterns, certainly no an...

BACKGROUND It has been debated whether treatment should be started early in subjects with mild to moderate COPD. An impaired health status score was associated with a higher probability of being diagnosed with COPD as compared with undiagnosed COPD. PURPOSE To investigate the health status in a healthy working population, to determine reference scores for healthy non-smoking subjects, and to ...

Baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) by the spontaneous sequence technique has been widely used as a cardiac autonomic index for a variety of pathological conditions. However, little information is available on determinants of the variability of spontaneous BRS and on age-related reference values of this measurement in a healthy population. We evaluated BRS as the slope of spontaneous changes in systol...
