Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQArabPro: A Rule Based Question Answering System for Reading Comprehension Tests in ArabicMohammed Akour, Sameer Abufardeh, Kenneth Magel, Qasem Al-RadaidehProblem statement: Extensive research efforts in the area of Natural Language Processing (NLP) were focused on developing reading comprehension Question Answering systems (QA) for Latin based languages such as, English, French and German. Approach: However, little effort was directed towards the development of such systems for bidirectional languages such as Arabic, Urdu and Farsi. In general, QA systems are more … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 7,701 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContext Disambiguation Based Semantic Web Search for Effective Information RetrievalM. Barathi, S. ValliProblem statement: Search queries are short and ambiguous and are insufficient for specifying precise user needs. To overcome this problem, some search engines suggest terms that are semantically related to the submitted queries, so that users can choose from the suggestions based on their information needs. Approach: In this study, we introduce an effective approach that captures the user’s specific … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 6,879 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethanol-Based Transesterification Optimization of Waste Used Cooking Oil over Potassium Hydroxide CatalystCholada Komintarachat, Sathaporn ChuepengProblem statement: Waste used Cooking Oil (WCO) harmfully affected to environment and human’s health can be a feedstock for producing biodiesel. Approach: The conversion of Fatty Acid and Free Fatty Acid (FFA) of WCO with 15.0% w/w FFA content to biodiesel was studied through transesterification reactions. This work investigated the effects of alcohol and catalyst quantity, reaction time and temperature … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 9,739 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Efficiency of a Combined Turbocharger Set with Gasoline EngineJarut KunanoppadonProblem statement: The technology of turbocharger has been used with internal combustion engines since 1905 to increase intake air pressure prior to putting it into the cylinders to increase thermal efficiency of the engine. Based on previous researches and uses of turbochargers, the pattern of turbocharger installation remains the same, either in series or in parallel. Therefore, this research aims … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,136 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWeb Structure Mining: Exploring Hyperlinks and Algorithms for Information RetrievalP. Ravi Kumar, Ashutosh Kumar SinghProblem statement: A study on hyperlink analysis and the algorithms used for link analysis in the Web Information retrieval was done. Approach: This research was initiated because of the dependability of search engines for information retrieval in the web. Understand the web structure mining and determine the importance of hyperlink in web information retrieval particularly using the Google Search engine. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,055 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPRESY: A Context Based Query Reformulation Tool for Information Retrieval on the WebAbdelkrim Bouramoul, Mohamed-Khireddine Kholladi, Bich-Lien DoanProblem statement: The huge number of information on the web as well as the growth of new inexperienced users creates new challenges for information retrieval. It has become increasingly difficult for these users to find relevant documents that satisfy their individual needs. Certainly the current search engines (such as Google, Bing and Yahoo) offer an efficient way to browse the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,666 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of a Comprehensive Computer Program for Predicting Farm EnergyS.A. Al-Hamed, S.A. Al-Suhaibani, F.S. Mohammad, M.F.I. WahbyProblem statement: The agricultural industry is a major user of energy. Energy is used directly for operating agricultural machinery and equipment on the farm and indirectly in the manufacturing of fertilizers and pesticides and processing of agricultural products off the farm. In order to reduce the cost of agricultural production, energy uses on the farm must be identified and optimized … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,061 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntioxidant Research in Asia in the Period from 2000-2008R. R. Hafidh, A. S. Abdulamir, F. Abu Bakar et al.Problem statement: Plant antioxidants are natural plant products that inhibit the adverse effects of the Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) produced in plants. Thus, antioxidants enable plants to survive. Depending on this principle, human beings started using some plants’ parts to cure from diseases many centuries ago, even before the discovery of microbes or disclosing the etiology of many human diseases. … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,278 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Kinetic Correction Coefficient of Fluid Flow Using a Generic Multiple Orifice Physical Scale Model StructureEmmanuel M. AdigioProblem statement: Diesel particulate filters are fast becoming integral parts of diesel engines, light and heavy duty, due to their potential in the reduction of particulate matter from exhaust gases and their noise muffling property. Consequently, several researchers are developing mathematical models for the study of fluid flow through the filter substrate and in the aiding of filter systems design. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,553 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Excess Oxygen to Mixture on the Gasses Emissions of a Gasoline EngineWaleed MomaniProblem statement: The effects of excess feeding oxygen to the fuel-air mixture on the exhausts gasses emissions concentrations are investigated here. It is known that spark-ignition and diesel engines are considered as major sources of urban air pollution; such pollutants are CO2, CO, HC.
