philip.resnikfleast.sun.com This paper presents a new measure of semantic similarity in an IS-A taxonomy, based on the notion of information content. Experimental evaluation suggests that the measure performs encouragingly well (a correlation of r = 0.79 with a benchmark set of human similarity

-precision At/At dating [Renne et al., 1993]. The astronochronologic estimates for the Brunhes/Matuyama (0.78 Ma) and Matuyama/Gauss (2.60 Ma) boundaries were already used for calibration in CK92; thus the good agreement of CK92 with the astronomical timescale to the older end of chron C2A (Gauss/Gilbert

by the computation time of existing algorithms, which were limited to a few hundred objects in a few dimensions. We discuss two important applications of larger size: one about a production process at Philips with n = 677 objects and p = 9 variables, and a data set from astronomy with n =137,256 objects and p = 27

hierarchy, weintroduce unsymmetric supernode-panel updates and two-dimensional data partitioning. To speed up symbolic factorization, we use Gilbert and Peierls's depth- rst search with Eisenstat and Liu's symmetric structural reductions. We have implemented a sparse LU code using all these ideas

ABSTRACT. This paper reformulates and decides a certain conjecture in Dunn’s ‘Relevant Predication 1: The Formal Theory ’ (Journal of Philosophical Logic 16, 347-381, 1987). This conjecture of Dunn’s relates his object-language characterisation of a property’s being relevant in a variable x

for the wetting front suction required by the Green-Ampt equation. Representative parameters for the moisture charac-teristic, the wetting front suction, and the sorptivity, a parameter in the infiltration equation derived by Philip (1957), are computed by using the desorption data of Holtan et al. (1968

This paper is dedicated to Philip J. Stone III, who first put me online in 1965.

to consider only the significant terms in Eqs. [27] and [28] and restrict higher order fitting to border regions. RESULTS Sensitivity encoding using common Cartesian sampling of k-space and DFT-based reconstruction was performed in vitro and in vivo on a Philips Gyroscan ACS-NT15 at 1.5 T. Phantom

High sensitivity applications of low-power RF/IF integrated circuits Application note AN1993 This paper discusses four high sensitivity receivers and IF (Intermediate Frequency) strips which utilize intermediate frequencies of 10.7MHz or greater. Each circuit utilizes a low-power VHF mixer and high

As general purpose components, logic devices are used at different frequencies and power supply voltages in many different varieties of applications. This large diversity has produced the need to express a single parameter that can be used in determining the power dissipation of a device in a given
