Coating plays a significant role in surface engineering, which leads to the improvement of the mechanical and metallurgical properties of products. It also brings about economic benefits thanks to the cost savings of the improved properties of the surface of a product in particular. Friction surfacing is a relatively new way to create a homogeneous, fine-grained coating with amended resistance ...

twenty four samples of xenoliths and country rocks from the 1961 lava flow of calbuco volcano have been studied. fourteen samples have been analyzed for major elements and p, ni, ba, cr, v, zr, sc, y, and sr. five of these samples were further analyzed for sm, nd, sr, and pb isotope ratios. seventeen samples were analyzed under the microscope and three samples were analyzed by microprobe for th...

We participated in the SemEval-2007 coarse-grained English all-words task and fine-grained English all-words task. We used a supervised learning approach with SVM as the learning algorithm. The knowledge sources used include local collocations, parts-of-speech, and surrounding words. We gathered training examples from English-Chinese parallel corpora, SEMCOR, and DSO corpus. While the fine-grai...

Entity Recognition (ER) is a key component of relation extraction systems and many other natural-language processing applications. Unfortunately, most ER are restricted to produce labels from small set entity classes, e.g., person, organization, location or miscellaneous. In order intelligently understand text extract wide range information, it useful more precisely determine the semantic class...

Current crowd counting algorithms are only concerned about the number of people in an image, which lacks low-level fine-grained information crowd. For many practical applications, total image is not as useful each sub-category. example, knowing waiting inline or browsing can help retail stores; standing/sitting restaurants/cafeterias; violent/non-violent police management. In this article, we p...

one and two dimensional contaminant transport by pure diffusion through single layer of fine grained soil was investigated using one and two dimensional laboratory models. these models simulates a simple hydrogeologic situation underneath a solid waste landfill comprising a fine grained soil overlying a bed rock. sodium chloride solution was sued as a contaminant source above a compacted clayey...

Fine-grained categorization of object classes is receiving increased attention, since it promises to automate classification tasks that are difficult even for humans, such as the distinction between different animal species. In this paper, we consider fine-grained categorization for a different reason: following the intuition that fine-grained categories encode metric information, we aim to gen...
