This paper describes our contribution to the semantic role labeling task (SRL-only) of the CoNLL-2009 shared task in the closed challenge(Hajic et al., 2009). Our system consists of a pipeline of independent, local classifiers that identify the predicate sense, the arguments of the predicates, and the argument labels. Using these local models, we carried out a beam search to generate a pool of can

B cell lymphomas (BCLs) are a group of severe cancers, afflicting both men and women at different ages. Gene expression profiling (GEP), have during the latest decades fundamentally contributed to a better classification and biological understanding of the different BCLs. Most studies using GEP have analyzed mRNA from tumor tissue constituted of both tumor cells and non-malignant bystander cells.

This paper ties into the growing literature on the long-term economic implications of historical European settlement, by arguing for the need to properly address the role of indigenous agency in endogenously evolving settlement processes. We develop three comparative case-studies in West, East and Southern Africa to show that the success or failure of European settler farming depended crucially on

Popular Abstract in Swedish I en komponent som blir utsatt för en upprepande på- och avlastning, så kallad cyklisk belastning, kan små sprickor initieras och börja växa i materialet. Detta fenomen kallas för utmattning och kan få katastrofala följder, såsom haveri. För att med god säkerhet kunna dimensionera mot utmattning är det viktigt att på en mikro skala förstå de fenomen som ligger bakom sprFatigue implies repeated loading and unloading of a structure, and components subjected to fatigue might experience nucleation of cracks, and subsequent crack propagation. This might lead to catastrophic consequences, such as complete failure of a structure. In order to accurately dimension against fatigue it is of uttermost importance to have a thorough understanding of the mechanisms behind the

The concept of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) has been underpining recycling/waste/product policy of a number of countries over the past two decades. However, it is considered that the understanding of the concept varies. This presents the findings from a survey conducted in Japan in 2013 to find out the actual perceptions of various stakeholders in Japan. It is part of a global survey con

During the recent years, researchers in control engineering have proposed more resource-efficient control strategies than the traditional periodic control paradigm, resulting in two main control approaches: event-based and self-triggered control. Such nonperiodic, state-based control methods, although subject to many open research problems, can provide similar control performance as periodic contr

Based on evidence from urban development projects in the city of Malmö, Sweden, I would like to discuss the idea that the success of the neoliberal utopia is based not in a clear break with its predecessor - social democracy – but in the appropriation, reworking and transformation of the social-democratic ideal to suit specific elite interests. The current institutionalisation of neoliberal planni
