Managing the Acronym/Expansion Identi cation Process for Text-Mining Applications

This paper deals with an acronym/de nition extraction approach from textual data (corpora) and the disambiguation of these de nitions (or expansions). Both steps of our global process of acquisition and management of acronyms are precisely described. The first step consists in using markers such as brackets to identify expansion candidates. The alignment of the letters allows to select the acronym/de nition couples. The second step is to de ne the relevant expansion of an acronym in a given context. Our method is based on statistical measurements (Mutual Information, Cubic Mutual Information, Dice Measure) and the results provided by search engines. This paper presents an evaluation of the global process from real data (general and specialized domains).     

Determination of pesticide residues in food matrices using the QuEChERS methodology

The determination of pesticide residues in food matrices is a formidable challenge mainly because of the small quantities of analytes and large amounts of interfering substances which can be co-extracted with analytes and, in most cases, adversely affect the results of an analysis. However, safety concerns require that pesticides of the wide range of chemical properties (including acidic, basic and neutral) should be monitored. Because of the wide variety of food matrices, the sample must initially be cleaned up before final analysis. That is why the analytical chemist is faced with the need to devise new methodologies for determining such residues to be determined in a single analytical run. To accomplish the goal, QuEChERS methodology has been developed. It is a streamlined and effective extraction and cleanup approach for the analysis of diverse analyte residues in food matrices. So far, there have been achieved promising results by liquid or gas chromatography analysis, including pesticides, but also acrylamide, pharmaceuticals and veterinary drugs.     

Strength evaluation of a steam distribution device in the Ignalina NPP accident localisation system

The Ignalina NPP has a pressure suppression type of confinement, which is referred to as the accident localization system (ALS). The ALS prevents the release of the radioactive material from the NPP to the environment during a loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA). Ten water pools are located in the two ALS towers (five pools in each tower), which separate the dry well from the wet well. These water pools condense the accident-generated steam and prevent high overpressures in the compartments.The steam distribution device (SDD), with the vertical vent pipes (nozzles) that are inserted under the water of the condensing pools, connects the dry well and the wet well. In case of an accident, these components must be capable of withstanding the dynamic loads generated by a LOCA for successful pressure suppression function.This paper presents the transient analysis of the SDD and their connections to the vertical steam corridors following a LOCA. A thermo-hydraulic analysis of the SDD was performed using the state-of-the-art COCOSYS code to determine pressure and temperature histories resulting from a LOCA. The finite element code NEPTUNE was used to evaluate the structural integrity of the SDD and its supporting reinforced concrete wall. Results show that, although portions of the SDD undergo plastic response and the outside surface of the vertical steam corridor reinforced concrete wall cracks, the structural integrity of the SDD and wall are maintained during a LOCA.     

Growth,yield, fiber content and lodging resistance in eight varieties of Cenchrus purpureus (Schumach.) Morrone intended as energy crop

Growth, biomass yield, fiber content and lodging resistance were studied, during a six month growth period, for eight varieties of Cenchrus purpureus, intended as energy crop, in Veracruz, Mexico. Then, only yield at day 182 was assessed for two additional years. The varieties were: CT115 (CT), African Cane (AC), Taiwan (TAI), King Grass (KG), Vruckwona (VRU), Roxo (RX), OM22 (OM) and Cameroon (CAM). Local weather is warm and sub-humid, historical data for monthly average temperature and annual rainfall were 25.8 °C and 1142 mm, respectively. Height, diameter and light interception were measured monthly from day 65–185. At day 185, biomass yield and tiller density were measured. Number of lying tillers was counted to estimate lodging resistance. Cellulose and hemicellulose content were estimated in leaf and stem. No differences were found for dry matter yield or stem yield at day 185 in the first year. Regarding the next two years, TAI yielded above CT, OM or ROX. Average dry matter yield was higher in the second year than in the establishment cycle (38.6 vs 21.1 Mg ha⁻¹), but decreased in the third year (32.2 Mg ha⁻¹). In both stem and whole plant, AC and KG showed higher hemicellulose content than RX, OM or CT; while AC and VRU had higher cellulose than RX in stem, or than CT in the whole plant. Furthermore, varieties AC, KG, VRU and TAI were resistant to lodging and had a higher fiber content, so they are recommended as energetic crops.     

基于Word Embedding语义相似度的字母缩略术语消歧

该文提出基于Word Embedding的歧义词多个义项语义表示方法,实现基于知识库的无监督字母缩略术语消歧。方法分两步聚类,首先采用显著相似聚类获得高置信度类簇,构造带有语义标签的文档集作为训练数据。利用该数据训练多份Word Embedding模型,以余弦相似度均值表示两个词之间的语义关系。在第二步聚类时,提出使用特征词扩展和语义线性加权来提高歧义分辨能力,提高消歧性能。该方法根据语义相似度扩展待消歧文档的特征词集合,挖掘聚类文档中缺失的语义信息,并使用语义相似度对特征词权重进行线性加权。针对25个多义缩略术语的消歧实验显示,特征词扩展使系统F值提高约4%,使用语义线性加权后F值再提高约2%,达到89.40%。

Multivariable optimization of thermal cracking severity

The changing market forces are driving olefin producers to operate their steam crackers at high operating rates and optimum production performances. These require the use of an optimizer for assessment of viable operational strategies. Most of the optimizers currently employed in this area make use of the coil outlet temperature to determine an improved severity. In rare cases only, a multivariable optimization is performed on the furnace operational conditions. This kind of optimization is implemented in PyroFur for optimizing both the furnace operation and the reaction severity using a set of first-principles mathematical models in which the coil outlet temperature, the total feed flow rate and the steam/hydrocarbon ratio are altered. The suggested procedure was applied as a case study for a typical liquid furnace. Typical improvements obtained from the optimizing control strategy proposed in this article include about 1.4% increased profitability per year per furnace. Effect of a change in the prices or the feed composition is also presented.     

Structural integrity analysis of an Ignalina nuclear power plant building subjected to an airplane crash

Recent terrorist attacks using commandeered commercial airliners on civil structures have raised the issue of the ability of nuclear power plants to survive the consequences of an airliner crash. The structural integrity analysis due to the effects of an aircraft crash on an Ignalina nuclear power plant (INPP) accident localization system (ALS) building is the subject of this paper. A combination of the finite element method and empirical relationships were used for the analysis. A global structural integrity analysis was performed for a portion of the ALS building using the dynamic loading from an aircraft crash impact model. The local effects caused by impact of the aircraft's engine on the building wall were evaluated independently by using an empirical formula.The results from the crash analysis of a twin engine commercial aircraft show that the impacted reinforced concrete wall of the ALS building will not have through-the-wall concrete failure, and the reinforcement will not fail. Strain-rate effects were found to delay the onset of cracking. Therefore, the structural integrity of the impacted wall of the INPP ALS building will be maintained during the crash event studied.
