Nitrofurazone is one of the antibacterial nitrofuran agents used topically for skin infections. The drug is effective on the majority of infectious microorganisms. Because of the importance of this drug in clinic, in this study various methods of synthesis of nitrofurazone were examined and the most appropriate method, applicable to pharmaceutical industry was chosen and optimized from the poin...

We present a novel system combination of machine translation and text summarization which provides high quality summary translations superior to the baseline translation of the entire document. We first use supervised learning and build a classifier that predicts if the translation of a sentence has high or low translation quality. This is a reference-free estimation of MT quality which helps u...

This paper investigates the feasibility of using crowd-sourcing services for the human assessment of machine translation quality of translations into non-English target languages. Non-expert graders are hired through the CrowdFlower interface to Amazon’s Mechanical Turk in order to carry out a ranking-based MT evaluation of utterances taken from the travel conversation domain for 10 Indo-Europe...

Types of translation demand When giving any general overview of the development and use of machine translation (MT) systems and translation tools, it is important to distinguish four basic types of translation demand. The first, and traditional one, is the demand for translations of a quality normally expected from human translators, i.e. translations of publishable quality – whether actually p...

Post-translational modifications (PTM) of proteins determine the activity, stability, specificity, transportability and lifespan of a protein. Some PTM are highly specific and regulated involving various enzymatic pathways, but there are other non-enzymatic PTM (nePTM), which occur stochastically, depend on the ternary structure of proteins and can be damaging. It is often observed that inactiv...

INTRODUCTION The clinical concept of urticaria embraces a heterogeneous group of conditions classified according to their clinical course as acute (lasting less than 6 weeks) or chronic (lasting 6 weeks or more). Chronic urticaria may be either spontaneous or induced. Few tools are available for monitoring the various clinical forms of this disease or for evaluating its impact on quality of lif...
