Supervised methods for extractive speech summarization require a large training set. Summary annotation is often expensive and time consuming. In this paper, we exploit semi-supervised approaches to leverage unlabeled data. In particular, we investigate co-training for the task of extractive meeting summarization. Compared with text summarization, speech summarization task has its unique charac...

BACKGROUND Blood culture (BCX) use is often sub-optimal, and is a user-dependent diagnostic test. Little is known about physician training and BCX-related knowledge. We sought to assess variations in caregiver BCX-related knowledge, and their relation to medical training. METHODS We developed and piloted a self-administered BCX-related knowledge survey instrument. Expert opinion, literature r...

SUMMARY A collection of transmembrane proteins with annotated transmembrane regions, for which good experimental evidence exist, was created as a test or training set for algorithms to predict transmembrane regions in proteins.
