Abstract: By focusing on the fact that nitrogen dioxide exhibits an increased sterilizing effect among other sterilant gases including nitrogen oxide, the present invention is made to provide a sterilization method which may be suitably used for sterilizing items to be sterilized such as medical instruments which require increased reliability by using a high concentration NO2 gas of 5,000 ppm or above, for example. An inside of a sterilizing chamber containing an item to be sterilized is humidified, and a concentration of NO2 in the sterilizing chamber is made to be from 9 to 100 mg/L by filling a high concentration NO2 gas.

Abstract: A translation system for translating source text from a first language to target text in a second language. The system comprises a translation memory (TM) module that stores translation segments. The TM module is operable to generate a TM target text output in response to source text. A statistical translation machine (SMT) module is configured to generate translations on the basis of statistical models whose parameters are derived from the analysis of bilingual text corpora. The SMT module is operable to generate a SMT target text output in response to source text. An extractor is configured to extract features from the TM target text output and the SMT target text output. A vector generator is configured to generate a vector with a unified feature set derived from the extracted features and features associated with the SMT module and the TM module. A recommender is operable to read the vector and determine whether the TM target text output or the SMT target text output is optimum for post editing.

Abstract: A high concentration NO2 gas generating system including a circulating path configured by connecting a chamber, a plasma generator, and a circulating means, wherein NO2 is generated by circulating a gas mixture including nitrogen and oxygen in the circulating path is provided. The high concentration NO2 gas generating system provides a high concentration NO2 generating system and the high concentration NO2 generating method using the generating system by which NO2 of high concentration (approximately 500 ppm or above) required for a high level of sterilization process in such as sterilization of medical instruments can be simply and selectively obtained. In addition, since indoor air is used as an ingredient, the management of ingredients is simple and highly safe, and the high concentration of NO2 can be simply and selectively prepared on demand.

Abstract: A method for enhancing source-language coverage during statistical machine translation. The method including receiving an input string in a source language for translation into a target language. Extracting a paraphrase representation of the input string from a data repository comprising a corpus. Generating a word lattice structure using a directed acyclic graph representation having a plurality of nodes with edges extending there between. The words of the input string and the extracted paraphrase representation each having a respective edge in the directed acyclic graph. Labelling each of the edges with a word and a probability, the probability weighing assigned to the edges associated with the words of the input string being higher than the probability assigned to paraphrases derived from the input string.

Abstract: Systems for generating microwave plasma from a combustion flame. The present invention provides a microwave plasma nozzle that includes a hollow cylindrical housing through which combustible material flows, and a rod-shaped conductor disposed in the housing. A portion of the rod-shaped conductor extends into a microwave cavity to receive microwaves passing in the cavity. The rod-shaped conductor transmits microwaves along the surface thereof, and has a distal end disposed in proximity to and surrounded by a proximal end portion of the housing. During operation, a combustion flame is formed in proximity to the proximal end portion of the housing, and the microwaves transmitted along the surface heat up the flame to generate plasma in proximity to the distal end of the rod-shaped conductor.
