The Evaluation of Ontology Matching versus Text

Lately, the ontologies have become more and more complex, and they are used in different domains. Some of the ontologies are domain independent; some are specific to a domain. In the case of text processing and information retrieval, it is important to identify the corresponding ontology to a specific text. If the ontology is of a great scale, only a part of it may be reflected in the natural language text. This article presents metrics which evaluate the degree in which an ontology matches a natural language text, from word counting metrics to text entailment based metrics.Ontology, Natural Language Processing, Metric

3,9-Di-1-naphthyl-2,4,8,10-tetra­oxa­spiro­[5.5]undeca­ne

In the title compound, C27H24O4, the 1,3-dioxane rings have chair conformations. The mol­ecule has non-crystallographic twofold rotation symmetry. The dihedral angle between the naphthalene ring systems is 17.96(4)° In the crystal structure, weak inter­molecular C—H⋯π inter­actions contribute to the crystal packing

Ontology Assisted Formal Specification Extraction from Text

In the field of knowledge processing, the ontologies are the most important mean. They make possible for the computer to understand better the natural language and to make judgments. In this paper, a method which use ontologies in the semi-automatic extraction of formal specifications from a natural language text is proposed. <br /><br /&gt

Two Important Anticancer Mechanisms of Natural and Synthetic Chalcones

ATP-binding cassette subfamily G and tubulin pharmacological mechanisms decrease the effectiveness of anticancer drugs by modulating drug absorption and by creating tubulin assembly through polymerization. A series of natural and synthetic chalcones have been reported to have very good anticancer activity, with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration lower than 1 µM. By modulation, it is observed in case of the first mechanism that methoxy substituents on the aromatic cycle of acetophenone residue and substitution of phenyl nucleus by a heterocycle and by methoxy or hydroxyl groups have a positive impact. To inhibit tubulin, compounds bind to colchicine binding site. Presence of methoxy groups, amino groups or heterocyclic substituents increase activity
