Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Method for Tagging Arabic TextYamina Tlili-GuiassaMany natural language expressions are ambiguous and need to draw on other sources of information to be interpreted. Interpretation of the word ﺗﻌﺎون to be considered as a noun or a verb depends on the presence of contextual cues. This study proposes a hybrid method of based- rules and a machine learning method for tagging Arabic words. So this method … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,700 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHarmonic Elimination of Inverters using Blind Signal SeparationB. Justus Rabi, R. ArumugamHarmonics cause major problems in power system due to non linear loads. With the rapid growth in the utilization of the rectifier for critical loads, e.g. In computer or medical equipment the need for high quality uninterruptible power is increasing. The non-linear current drawn by the rectifier loads distort the output of UPS system. Mainly because of output filter impedance … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 6,899 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling Load Balancing in Heterogeneous Unstructured P2P SystemsZhi Jun Li, Ming Hong LiaoLoad balancing is a generally concerned problem in peer-to-peer (P2P) systems. Many researches on load balancing in the structured P2P systems have been launched currently, such as Chord or other DHTs. Although the researches on load balancing in unstructured P2P systems are emerged nowadays, the simple mechanisms achieved can only perform effectively in uniform environment. In this study, the influence … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,783 accessesView PDFCite
