After his general theory of relativity was formulated in November, 1915, Einstein became world-famous, an unusual achievement for a scientist.
In general relativity, gravity is no longer a force (as it is in Newton's law of gravity) but is a consequence of the curvature of space-time.
Einstein began to form a generalized theory of gravitation with the universal law of gravitation and the electromagnetic force in his first attempt to demonstrate the unification and simplification of the fundamental forces.

Generally, the nomenclatures of rat, human, and mouse genes are coordinated with each other by the corresponding committees.
The procedure for synonym dictionary generation and curation is adapted to account for changes in the underlying data sources and mappings between data sources.
Accordingly, the number of abstracts that cannot be disambiguated by this approach is determined as the difference of the number of abstracts that contain ambiguous synonyms and the number of abstracts that additionally contain either unique synonyms or a corresponding organism name.

The Dominions Office was given a separate secretary of state in June 1930, though this was entirely for domestic political reasons given the need to relieve the burden on one ill minister whilst moving another away from unemployment policy.

 Correcting False Positives: Redress and the Watch List Conundrum
What makes the difference is that in a cyber-system, the “suspicion” may per­sist—both because the records generating the sus­picion are often persistent and uncorrected and especially because the reason for the suspicion is a broad concern for preempting future attacks that is likely to be less susceptible of refutation.
Thus, while the Privacy Act generally affords and individual the right to request amendment and correction of a record pertaining to him (and to sue if the government refuses to amend the record), law enforcement, classified, and intelligence records are exempt from this provision.
Where the conse­quences are civil in nature—a prohibition on cer­tain conduct, for example—the law generally allows a lower burden of proof (i.e., by a prepon­derance of the evidence) and often uses adminis­trative rather than judicial procedures.

 Method for extracting knowledge from online documentation and creating a glossary, index, help database or the like - ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Thus, while lexical and morphological analysis generally operate at the word level, part-of-speech disambiguation analysis is concerned with a phrase or sentence, and reduces, to the extent possible, each word of the phrase or sentence to a single, and therefore, unambiguous analysis.
Part-of-speech disambiguation analysis looks at a string of words, and on the basis of certain knowledge about the construction of some of those words (namely, that knowledge acquired through lexical and morphological analysis), and the order in which they occur in the sentence, infers likely construction of other words in the sentence.
For example, generally, a key term in the domain typically maps onto a noun phrase; an activity between two key terms in the domain might map onto a subject-verb-object phrase or, generally, a verb with arguments construction.

The best season, on the drier sorts of land in the southern districts, is as soon as possible after the frosts are over in April; and, on the same descriptions of soil, in the more northern ones, towards the close of the same month or early in the ensuing one.

More generally, F1 score may be an imperfect measure of performance for any NER system that is used in the context of a larger problem – an observation which has implications on the proper evaluation of such systems.
These have in turn been shown to generalize Gaussian kernels, in the sense that the continuous limit of heat-diffusion kernels on a two-dimensional grid is a Gaussian kernel.
This framework is general, as it can be readily used for many related tasks, like producing gene identifiers for a particular protein name, or finding abstracts likely to contain a protein given a protein identifier.

He was the only Southern Senator not to quit his post upon secession, and became the most prominment War Democrat from the South.
His quarrel with Congress prevented the readmission into the Union on generous terms of the members of the late Confederacy; and for the quarrel and its unhappy results Johnson's lack of imagination and his inordinate sensitiveness to political gadflies were largely responsible: it was not a contest in which fundamentals were involved.
Johnson's defense was based on a clause in the Tenure of Office Act stating that the then-current secretaries would hold their posts throughout the term of the President who appointed them.
