Scrambling is acceptable reordering of verb arguments in languages such as Japanese and German. In automatic evaluation of translation quality, BLEU is the de facto standard method, but BLEU has only very weak correlation with human judgements in case of Japanese-toEnglish/English-to-Japanese translations. Therefore, alternative methods, IMPACT and RIBES, were proposed and they have shown much ...

a growth chamber study was carried out to evaluate the allelopahtic effects of shoot and root water extract of hoary cress (cardaria draba) on seed germination and seedling characteristic of sorghum (sorghum bicolor). the study was conducted based on completely randomized design with four replications in research laboratory of faculty of agriculture, university of birjand in 2008. treatments we...

The present study reports the antioxidant and membrane protective activities of Calotropis procera aqueous root extract using several in vitro assays along with the determination of phenolic as well as flavonoid contents. Total phenol and flavonoid contents in extract were 15.67 ± 1.52 mg propyl gallate equivalent/g and 1.62 ± 0.05 mg quercetin equivalent/g, respectively. UV-visual spectroscopi...

Fruit from black, red and white currants, and gooseberries (Ribes L.) were grown commercially in North America at the beginning of the 20th Century. However, when white pine blister rust (WPBR) (Cronartium ribicola J. C. Fisch.) was introduced into the new world, their cultivation was discontinued. About 825,000 t (908,000 tons) of Ribes fruit are produced worldwide, almost entirely in Europe. ...

This paper des ribes openSDK, an open-sour e implementation of Sony's AIBO development kit (OPEN-R). openSDK is apable of running unmodi ed AIBO programs (only a re ompilation is ne essary) on a standard omputer, using a simulator at full frame rate ( urrently only USARSim is supported) or on a di erent roboti hardware platform. openSDK also o ers standard debugging fa ilities for AIBO programs.

Gooseberries are often distinguished from currants as a distinct genus (Grossularia) or subgenus (Ribes subg. Grossularia), but recent molecular phylogenetic analyses of chloroplast and nuclear data disagree as to the monophyly of this group. We report new sequence data from the 18–26S nuclear rDNA ITS and ETS regions and from the chloroplast psbAtrnH intergenic spacer that, in combination with...

The antibacterial activity of leaf and root ethanolic extracts as well as crude alkaloids and flavonoids from both the parts of Rhus succedanea were carried against bacterial strains viz. Staphylococcus aureus, Clavibacter michiganensis, Proteus vulgaris and Xanthomonas spp. The antibacterial activity was carried out on nutrient agar medium using disk diffusion method. The flavonoid fraction of...

We show that the property T factors associated with groups SL(n)(Z), n > or = 3 are generated by two selfadjoint elements, one of which has an arbitrarily small support. This answers a question of Dan Voiculescu.
