A high-performance syntactic and semantic dependency parser

This demonstration presents a highperformance syntactic and semantic dependency parser. The system consists of a pipeline of modules that carry out the tokenization, lemmatization, part-of-speech tagging, dependency parsing, and semantic role labeling of a sentence. The system’s two main components draw on improved versions of a state-of-the-art dependency parser (Bohnet, 2009) and semantic role l

Design Thinking and Organizational Development: twin concepts enabling a reintroduction of democratic values in organizational change

Design Thinking is a rather new concept for increasing innovation capabilities in organizations. Organizational Development is a concept from the 1950s aiming at modernizing organizations through participatory methods. As organizations struggle with constant change and to become more innovative we will compare and discuss design thinking and organizational development and explore what we can learn

Facilitating compulsory licensing under TRIPS in response to the AIDS crisis in developing countries

The AIDS crisis in the developing world has become a priority for international collaboration. The challenge is to find a balance between the acknowledged need to protect large investments expended in developing new medicines and the goal of providing essential medicines to poor countries. Patent protection must prevent undue infringement yet at the same time allow solutions to humanitarian needs.

Abstract in Norwegian Boken omhandler både kreative metoder som er lite brukt, men som har vist seg å være svært nyttige til bestemte studieformål, og noen av de vanligste og mest brukte metodene i samfunnsvitenskapen. Målet med boken er todelt. For det første å gi en innføring i hver enkelt metode i seg selv. For det andre å vise hvilke muligheter som åpner seg når de ulike metodene kombineres. F

Genetic interaction between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes

There are two major types of diabetes, type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Similarly characterized by hyperglycaemia and long term micro- and macrovascular complications, type 1 and type 2 diabetes have different underlying pathophysiologic processes. In Scandinavia, type 1 diabetes is common; type 2 diabetes accounts for 85% of all cases with diabetes. There is emerging evidence that type 1 and type 2 di

LES of the flow and acoustics generated by an aircraft fan running in the vicinity of the ground

An important component of the aircraft generated noise, especially ahead of it, is the fan noise created by the high velocity variation near the blades and the interaction of the rotating fan with the fluid. In order to predict the sound, the method used involves the acoustical analogy developed by Ffowcs Williams and Hawkings. Computation of the flow field is performed in the incompressible LES f

Towards a Suite of Software Configuration Management Metrics

Software Configuration Management (SCM) is an important support activity in software development. However, its transparent nature as a service that makes life easier for others and as an insurance against disasters, often makes it difficult to justify investments in tools and processes that apparently do not have any direct return. We have made a first step towards establishing a model for showing

The EGF-like Modules of Anticoagulant Protein S. Studies of Ca2+ binding and module interactions

Popular Abstract in Swedish I samband med en kärlskada startar en kaskad av reaktioner som leder fram till bildandet av ett blodkoagel. Det är viktigt att bildandet av blodkoagel begränsas till det skadade området. Blodkoagulationen är därför reglerad av antal antikoagulanta system av vilka det viktigaste är protein C systemet. I detta system samverkar aktivt protein C (APC) tillsammans med ett anProtein S functions as a cofactor to activated protein C (APC) in the degradation of factors Va and VIIIa. In plasma protein S circulates in two forms; 30-40 % circulates as free protein S molecules while the remaining 60-70 % exists in a 1:1 complex with C4b-binding protein (C4BP). Only the free form of protein S functions as a cofactor to APC. Protein S is a mosaic protein composed of four discr

Studies in Language and Cognition

Using a plethora of concepts, theories and methods, the theoretical and empirical studies described in this volume are united in their approach of treating language not in isolation (e.g. as a “module”), but as both based on structures and processes of cognition, and at the same time as affecting the human mind. The book is organized in 7 parts, corresponding to some of the major fields in languag

Consumption and Ecological Economics: Towards Sustainability

In a finite world, developing a sustainable society requires both a more sustainable management of resources and a more sustainable management of human beings.Therefore deep understanding of processes underlying systems of production and consumption is needed. The question that is being asked in this chapter is whether neoclassical economics can provide solid ground to further advance the economic
