This paper describes a method for the automatic inference of structural transfer rules to be used in a shallow-transfer machine translation (MT) system from small parallel corpora. The structural transfer rules are based on alignment templates, like those used in…

Nowadays, the material disassembly is an important issue for the industry. This paper presents an algorithm to sequence the task to be performed in the disassembly of a specific material from a product or to separate all the materials of…

15-Deoxy-Δ12,14-prostaglandin J2 (15dPGJ2) has been recently proposed as a potent anti-inflammatory agent. However, the mechanisms by which 15dPGJ2 mediates its therapeutic effects in vivo are unclear. We demonstrate that 15dPGJ2 at micromolar (2.5–10 µM) concentrations induces the expression of heme…

Activated carbon/polyaniline composites have been prepared using different electrochemical methods: single-step potentiostatic polymerization, multiple-step potentiostatic polymerization, and potentiodynamic polymerization with the anodic potential limits being fixed at either 0.75 or 1 V (vs Ag/AgCl). The prepared composite samples were characterized…

Kogelnik's coupled-wave (CW) theory has been used for decades to predict the diffraction efficiency of volume diffraction gratings. Although this theory has been applied with success to volume diffraction gratings recorded under a great variety of experimental conditions, its predictions…

The templated growth of polyaniline through porous sol–gel films on ITO substrates has been performed. The polyaniline–silica composites have been synthesized by electrochemical reactive insertion in potentiodynamic and potentiostatic conditions. When the polymer is synthesized by potential step experiments, the…

In this paper we study the distribution of the zeros of each function G_{n}(z)≡1+2^{z}+...+n^{z}, n≥2, which approaches the Riemann zeta function for Rez<-1, and is closely related to the solutions of the functional equations f(z)+f(2z)+...+f(nz)=0. We determine the density of…

3,3'-Bis(dialkylaminomethyl)-1,1'-binaphth-2-ols (Binolams) have emerged during the last five years as very efficient chiral ligands in many enantioselective processes. Enantiomerically pure Binolams are easily accessible by means of a variety of methods, the most widely used being the so-called chiral Binol…

This paper analyzes the effect on the optimal value of a given linear semi-infinite programming problem of the kind of
perturbations which more frequently arise in practical applications: those which affect the objective function and the right-hand-side coefficients of the…
