Soil amendment with pyrogenic organic matter (PyOM) can sequester carbon, increase mutualistic root symbioses with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and nitrogen-fixing rhizobia, and hence improve crop yield. However, there is still a gap in our knowledge about the effects of PyOM…

Current approaches to generation for machine translation make use of direct-replacement templates, large grammars, and knowledge-based inferencing techniques. Not only are rules language-specific, but they are too simplistic to handle sentences that exhibit more complex phenomena. Furthermore, these systems are…
