A large part of wide coverage Tree Adjoining Grammars (TAG) is formed by trees that satisfy the restrictions imposed by Tree Insertion Grammars (TIG). This characteristic can be used to reduce the practical complexity of TAG parsing, applying the standard adjunction operation only in those cases in which the simpler cubic-time TIG adjunction cannot be applied. In this paper, we describe a parsi...

Purpose: Tigatuzumab (TIG), an agonistic anti-DR5 antibody, triggers apoptosis in DR5þ human tumor cells without crosslinking. TIG has strong in vitro/in vivo activity against basal-like breast cancer cells enhanced by chemotherapy agents. This study evaluates activity of TIG and chemotherapy in patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Experimental Design: Randomized 2:1 p...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the difference between tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding of austenitic stainless steel assisted by microparticle oxides and that assisted by nanoparticle oxides. SiO₂ and Al₂O₃ were used to investigate the effects of the thermal stability and the particle size of the activated compounds on the surface appearance, geometric shape, angular distortion, d...

We present a Bayesian nonparametric model for estimating tree insertion grammars (TIG), building upon recent work in Bayesian inference of tree substitution grammars (TSG) via Dirichlet processes. Under our general variant of TIG, grammars are estimated via the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm that uses a context free grammar transformation as a proposal, which allows for cubic-time string parsing...

This study evaluated the efficacy of tigecycline (TIG), polymyxin B (PMB), and meropenem (MER) in 80 rats challenged with Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing K. pneumoniae infection. A time-kill assay was performed with the same strain. Triple therapy and PMB+TIG were synergistic, promoted 100% survival, and produced negative peritoneal cultures, while MER+TIG showed lower survi...

Evaluation of the low cycle fatigue life by the small specimen test technique (SSTT) and some other properties (metallographical structure and Vickers hardness) for the TIG (tungsten inert gas) weld of F82H IEA-heat were carried out. The TIG-weld was distinguished into seven regions with different metallographical structure and hardness, which were the base metal (BM) region (region with almost...

gas tungsten arc welding is a popular process in those applications requiring a high degree of quality andaccuracy. however, this process has a big disadvantage against the substantially high productivity weldingprocedures. hence, many efforts have been made to improve its productivity. one of these efforts is the use of activating flux (a-tig welding). in this study, the performance of a-tig w...

Analysis of pediatric tetanus cases was carried out to study the predictors of mortality and role of tetanus immunoglobulin (TIG). Shorter incubation period, onset time and autonomic dysfunction were significantly associated with mortality and may be used to stratify patients requiring intensive care. TIG may not have independent role in decreasing mortality in sick patients.
