The unavailability of parallel training corpora in resource-poor languages is a major bottleneck in cost-effective and rapid deployment of statistical machine translation (SMT) technology. This has spurred significant interest in active learning for SMT to select the most informative samples from a large candidate pool. This is especially challenging when irrelevant outliers dominate the pool. ...

Research is needed to understand refugees' health challenges and barriers to accessing health services during settlement. However, there are practical and ethical challenges for engaging refugees as participants. Despite this, there have been no studies to date specifically investigating refugee perspectives on factors affecting engagement in health research. Language-concordant focus groups in...

This paper offers a transcription system for Persian, the target language in the Transonics project, a speech-to-speech translation system developed as a part of the DARPA Babylon program (The DARPA Babylon Program; Narayanan, 2003). In this paper, we discuss transcription systems needed for automated spoken language processing applications in Persian that uses the Arabic script for writing. Th...

Artikel ini pertama-tama mengulas kembali mengenai IS sebagai sebuah disiplin ilmu yang dahulu telah dibahas dalam artikel Baskenville dan Myers. Bahwa ada motivasi, kualifikasi dan implikasi IS sebagai sebuah disiplin ilmu. Motivasi untuk menjadikan IS sebagai sebuah disiplin ilmu adalah karena infusi IT terus meningkat secara tetap di semua aspek bisnis dan topik penelitian mengenai manajemen...

Many spoken languages do not have a standardized writing system. Building text to speech voices for them, without accurate transcripts of speech data is difficult. Our language independent method to bootstrap synthetic voices using only speech data relies upon cross-lingual phonetic decoding of speech. In this paper, we describe novel additions to our bootstrapping method. We present results on...

The language model (LM) is a critical component in most statistical machine translation (SMT) systems, serving to establish a probability distribution over the hypothesis space. Most SMT systems use a static LM, independent of the source language input. While previous work has shown that adapting LMs based on the input improves SMT performance, none of the techniques has thus far been shown to ...

Computable a posteriori error bounds and related adaptive meshrefining algorithms are provided for the numerical treatment of monotone stationary flow problems with a quite general class of conforming and nonconforming finite element methods. A refined residual-based error estimate generalises the works of Verfürth; Dari, Duran and Padra; Bao and Barrett. As a consequence, reliable and efficien...

line to/cal/3/7c//bb/cno/5/cal//cno/sn64/4/cno//bad/dar/3/kl/6/sabalan was received from icarda under international winter wheat improvement in 1999-2000 cropping season. based on its favorable agronomic characteristics, it was selected for further evaluations in advanced and elite yield trials in main research stations of dryland agricultural research institute (dari) and on farm yield trials ...

ABSTRAK Meningkatnya penggunaan dokumen digital khususnya multimedia (citra, audio, video) dan kemudahan transmisi data melalui Internet meningkatkan kebutuhan terhadap keamanan data terhadap pelanggaran hak cipta. Watermarking merupakan pendekatan yang telah banyak digunakan dan merupakan bagian dari Digital Right Management (DRM) yang dibuat untuk memenuhi kebutuhan tersebut. Khusus untuk vid...
