Abstract:
 ‎
Method detection limit (MDL) is perhaps the most important statistic used for the
reporting of toxic chemicals in air, drinking water, wastewater, food, hazardous wastes,‎
and other environmental samples. A toxic chemical measured at a concentration that is
less than its MDL is reported as “not detected” and is generally considered to be absent
from the sample and the environment. In contrast, a toxic chemical measured at a
concentration that is greater than or equal to its MDL is reported at its measured
concentration. Furthermore, many chemicals are so toxic that they cannot be measured to
safe levels and the allowable limits must be set at the lowest reportable concentrations.‎
We will demonstrate that the equation promulgated by 40 Code of Federal Regulations
‎(CFR) to calculate MDL and used since 1981 to protect public health and the‎
environment is incorrect. As a result, toxic chemicals in a large number of environmental
samples may in fact be present at measurable concentrations even though they are
currently being reported as “not detected”. In addition, the allowable limits for some
extremely toxic chemicals may be incorrectly set too high. Therefore, the consequences
of  this error pose a risk to public health and the environment. The sources of this error
will be  explained and an improved equation is presented.‎

Abstract:

Our main application program walks through the implementation of the N-Gram technique for ‎Question Answering Systems. The goal of this program is to try to find a paragraph in an Arabic ‎document that can serve as an answer to a question. The implementation uses the Prolog Language.‎ The overall idea is coupling an information retrieval system with a shallow approach to natural ‎language processing. The essential first step in accomplishing this task is the categorization of texts. We ‎mean that for search purposes the search must be guided toward only the related categories: say ‎science, medicine, social problems? Society? history, and other vital  categories. Our paper proceeds to ‎attack this vital step, which must be handled as a separate task. We know that this task is already ‎completed in a typical English corpus, such as, for example, the TREC-8 context. We describe the ‎categorization of documents in detail and we also give an overview of advanced topics in this domain... ‎
 The user asks a question in unstructured language but with a careful choice of words, since ‎document categorization is based on word occurrence information.  To process the user’s question we ‎use mainly the N-gram, but to enhance the process for high occurrences success we remove some ‎known suffixes, numbers, English words, and others, which are called Stop-Words. This process of ‎removing words is called normalization. For simplicity we assumed that the collection of targeted ‎documents is identified ahead of time r and stored as a text file. The rest of the words forming the ‎question are farther processed by the body of our program, which sues N-Grams to compute the ‎similarity between a word and other words from a paragraph of a selected document. Based on the ‎similarity results, we may assign a value.  Depending on the values for each word, a selected paragraph ‎may be returned as an answer. ‎

Abstract:

Information retrieval is one of the most active research areas nowadays, motivated by the ‎
need for an effective system that can satisfy the user information needs. In the heart of an information ‎
retrieval system is the ranking algorithm that orders the answer set according to a similarity measure ‎
hoping to achieve satisfactory results. Unfortunately, a powerful system is needed to achieve a ‎
satisfactory answer set for the user. Here relevance feedback strategies can aid in enhancing the ‎
results. These strategies have been tested thoroughly on English text and proved effective. In this ‎
work we implement a simple system that enables us to deal with Arabic text and we examine  some ‎
of the common relevance feedback strategies that have been shown to be effective in other languages.‎

Abstract:

A model, which describes an epidemic, has been considered. The logistic growth and ‎
vaccination have been included in the model. An equilibrium and stability analysis has been done to ‎
the model. Then a spatial Spread has been added to the model and a traveling wave solution has been ‎obtained.‎
