Several recently reported techniques for the automatic acquisition of Information Extraction (IE) systems have used dependency trees as the basis of their extraction pattern representation. These approaches have used a variety of pattern models (schemes for representing IE patterns based on particular parts of the dependency analysis). An appropriate model should be expressive enough to represe...

introduction: laryngeal cancer is the second most common cancer involving the respiratory tract, second only to lung cancer. previous studies have shown opium dependency to be a possible risk factor for laryngeal cancer. opium consumption is a major problem in some parts of the world. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of opium consumption on the pattern of involvement in laryn...

We introduce a modified version of the well-known dependency pair framework that is suitable for the termination analysis of rewriting under forbidden pattern restrictions. By attaching contexts to dependency pairs that represent the calling contexts of the corresponding recursive function calls, it is possible to incorporate the forbidden pattern restrictions in the (adapted) notion of depende...

Several recent approaches to Information Extraction (IE) have used dependency trees as the basis for an extraction pattern representation. These approaches have used a variety of pattern models (schemes which define the parts of the dependency tree which can be used to form extraction patterns). Previous comparisons of these pattern models are limited by the fact that they have used indirect ta...

This paper presents a novel method for multistage dependency parsing based on dependency direction. In the method, dependency parsing processes are divided into multiple sub-stages, and each stage is in a sequential pattern, which makes it easier to take applicable solutions for different issues in dependency parsing. Meanwhile, dependency parsing in the previous stage provides a clearer contex...

Background: The twelve step program is one of the programs that are administered for overcoming abuse of drugs. In this study, the effectiveness of chemical dependency counseling course was investigated using a hybrid model. Methods: In a survey with sample size of 243, participants were selected using stratified random sampling method. A questionnaire was used for collecting data and one sampl...

Spatial and temporal variation in interactions among plants, other species and the abiotic environment create context-dependency in vegetation pattern. We argue that we can enhance understanding of context-dependency by being more explicit about the kinds of direct interactions that occur among more than two living and non-living entities (i. e., third through nth parties) and formalizing how t...
