In this paper, we propose a novel discriminative language model, which can be applied quite generally. Compared to the well known N-gram language models, discriminative language models can achieve more accurate discrimination because they can employ overlapping features and nonlocal information. However, discriminative language models have been used only for re-ranking in specific applications ...

We propose a novel method for counting sentiment orientation that outperforms supervised learning approaches in time and memory complexity and is not statistically significantly different from them in accuracy. Our method consists of a novel approach to generating unigram, bigram and trigram lexicons. The proposed method, called frequentiment, is based on calculating the frequency of features (...

Objective(s): PEI based nanoparticle (NP) due to dual capabilities of proton sponge and DNA binding is known as powerful tool for nucleic acid delivery to cells. However, serious cytotoxicity and complicated conditions, which govern NPs properties and its interactions with cells practically, hindered achievement to high transfection efficiency. Here, we have tried to optimize the properties of ...

Neural network language models (NNLMs) have been shown to outperform traditional ngram language model. However, too high computational cost of NNLMs becomes the main obstacle of directly integrating it into pinyin IME that normally requires a real-time response. In this paper, an efficient solution is proposed by converting NNLMs into back-off n-gram language models, and we integrate the conver...

A new series of photo-luminescent Zn(II) and Mg(II) Schiff base complexes were prepared by treatment of the arylethynyl-substituted salicylaldehydes obtained from the Sonogashira reaction with the metal salt followed by addition of the different diamines. Most square-planar Zn(II) complexes exhibited good quantum efficiencies. The Mg(II) complexes displayed even higher quantum yields than the c...

The efficiencies of two recently developed methods for calculating free energy changes along a generalized coordinate in a system are discussed in the context of other, related approaches. One method is based on Jarzynski's identity [Phys. Rev. Lett. 78, 2690 (1997)]. The second method relies on thermodynamic integration of the average force and is called the adaptive biasing force method [Darv...

limited information is available on water and nitrogen (n) management of sugarcane (saccharum officinarum l.) in khuzestan, southwestern iran, where this crop is currently and extensively grown under heavy irrigation and n fertilization. therefore, a field experiment was conducted from september 2000 to march 2002 at the research department of karoon agro-industry in khuzestan to determine the ...
