A Neural, Interactive-predictive System for Multimodal Sequence to Sequence Tasks

We present a demonstration of a neural interactive-predictive system for tackling multimodal sequence to sequence tasks. The system generates text predictions to different sequence to sequence tasks: machine translation, image and video captioning. These predictions are revised by a human agent, who introduces corrections in the form of characters. The system reacts to each correction, providing alternative hypotheses, compelling with the feedback provided by the user. The final objective is to reduce the human effort required during this correction process. This system is implemented following a client-server architecture. For accessing the system, we developed a website, which communicates with the neural model, hosted in a local server. From this website, the different tasks can be tackled following the interactive-predictive framework. We open-source all the code developed for building this system. The demonstration in hosted in http://casmacat.prhlt.upv.es/interactive-seq2seq.Comment: ACL 2019 - System demonstration

TectoMT – a deep-­linguistic core of the combined Chimera MT system

Chimera is a machine translation system that combines the TectoMT deep-linguistic core with phrase-based MT system Moses. For English–Czech pair it also uses the Depfix post-correction system. All the components run on Unix/Linux platform and are open source (available from Perl repository CPAN and the LINDAT/CLARIN repository). The main website is https://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/tectomt. The development is currently supported by the QTLeap 7th FP project (http://qtleap.eu)

A Toxicity study on “Pavala Parpam”

The medicine PAVALA PARPAM was taken for the dissertation work based on Kannu Sammy, Parambarai Vaithiyam, Page No :385, 386. The aim of this dissertation is to study the acute and sub-acute toxicity of the medicine PAVALA PARPAM administered at various presumed moderate dosage, in the experimental animals. The Ingredients of PAVALA PARPAM are Pavalam and Thaivelai. The pavalam were purchased from fishermen of Tiruchendur Seashore and Thaivelai collected from Moolikulam region. The raw samples were taken for purification and the test medicine was prepared, as per the method narrated in the literature. The drug was analysed for its physicochemical properties and contents by using qualitative biochemical analysis and modern techniques such as inductively couped plasma-optical emission spectrometry. Depending upon the result of these analysis the contents of test sample was identified. By scanning electron microscope (SEM), the size of the particles about 2-1 micron, were analyzed. _ The study was done at Department of Pharmacology, Nandha College of Pharmacy, Erode District. To evaluate the acute toxicity study 15 rats were selected and divided into 5 groups (Group I, II, III, IV, V) and they were administered with the drug with different graded doses ranging from Control, 5mg/kg, 50mg/kg, 300mg/kg and 2000mg/kg body weight of animal orally with control group. Daily the animals were observed for clinical signs and mortality. The drug did not produce any mortality and is safe upto 2000mg/kg body weight. Sub acute Toxicity was conducted for about 28 days duration. No signs of toxicity was observed in animals from different dose groups during the dosing period. The haematological index shows no significant changes 118 During long term administration of the drugs at both low dose and high dose SGOT, SGPT, Serum Urea, Serum Creatinine level found to be within the normal range. Biostatistical measures to the acute and subacute toxicity studies shows the drugs “PAVALA PARPAM” found to be safe up to 2000mg/kg body weight of the animal in acute toxicity study and found to be safe upto 20mg/kg body weight of the animal in sub-acute toxicity study. In this study since there is no mortality, the lethal dose of drug could not be calculated. CONCLUSION: From acute toxicity study it was observed that the administration of PAVALA PARPAM up to the dose of 2000 mg/kg to the Wistar Albino Rats did not produce drug-related toxicity and mortality. So No-Observed-Adverse-Effect- Level (NOAEL) of PAVALA PARPAM is 2000 mg/kg. The subacute toxicity studies also reveals that the drug “PAVALA PARPAM” can be considered safe, as it did not produce either any lethality or adverse changes with general behaviour of rats and also there were not observable determental effects in the doses (5 to 20mg/kg body weight) over a period of 28 days. It is concluded that the “PAVALA PARPAM ” is relatively safe in long administration upto the dose of 20mg/kg

The QT21/HimL Combined Machine Translation System

This paper describes the joint submission of the QT21 and HimL projects for the English→Romanian translation task of the ACL 2016 First Conference on Machine Translation (WMT 2016). The submission is a system combination which combines twelve different statistical machine translation systems provided by the different groups (RWTH Aachen University, LMU Munich, Charles University in Prague, University of Edinburgh, University of Sheffield, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, LIMSI, University of Amsterdam, Tilde). The systems are combined using RWTH’s system combination approach. The final submission shows an improvement of 1.0 BLEU compared to the best single system on newstest2016
