introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate and compare microhybride composite treated by bur and different power of erbium, chromium doped yttrium scandium gallium garnet (er,cr:ysgg) laser by scanning electron microscope (sem). methods: 21 microhybride composite blocks (diafil tm, diadent, korea) with 2 × 4 × 4 mm dimensions were made. the bonding surface of these blocks were polished...

People communicate multimodally. Most prominently, they co-produce speech and gesture. How do they do that? Studying the interplay of both modalities has to be informed by empirically observed communication behavior. We present a corpus built of speech and gesture data gained in a controlled study. We describe 1) the setting underlying the data; 2) annotation of the data; 3) reliability evaluti...

Distributional semantic models (DSMs) are currently being used in the measurement of word relatedness and word similarity. One shortcoming of DSMs is that they do not provide a principled way to discriminate different semantic relations. Several approaches have been adopted that rely on annotated data either in the training of the model or later in its evaluation. In this paper, we introduce a ...

Background and objective: Six families of thiazole, thiazolidine, imidazole, tetrahydropyrimidine, oxazolidine and thiazepine are new and important heterocyclic antibacterial compounds. Aim of this study is evalution the antibacterial effect of thirty new thiazole, thiazolidine, imidazole, tetrahydropyrimidine, oxazolidine and thiazepine derivatives against Bacillus subtilis and salmonella ente...

First report on carminative and antacid effects of peeled crude extract of the Citrullus lanatus fruit. The authenticated fruit was taken, dried, powdered & finally weighed. The carminative activity of the extract was quantitavely detrmined by carbondioxide evalution method. The antacid behaviour was studied employing RossettRice test. The Citrullus lanatus extract showed a significant results ...

In this paper, we propose the evaluation of MapReduce on the Cell processor by way of the Marchine Cubes application. We argue that the Cell architecture and the MapReduce parallel programming model complement each other well, and that the Marching Cubes application is a good application through which to evaluate this potential synergy. For the interested reader, a preliminary design and plan o...
