IPY Observations of Ionospheric Yearly Variations from High- to Middle-Latitude Incoherent Scatter Radars
The main focus of this paper is on the noon-time baseline annual and semiannual variations, with an emphasis on the less-known height dependency, for those geophysically important areas.

Preparing Students for Future Learning with Teachable Agents
One valuable goal of instructional technologies in K-12 education is to prepare students for future learning. Two classroom studies examined whether Teachable Agents (TA) achieves this goal.

Stimulation of Lateral Hypothalamic Glutamate and Acetylcholine Efflux By Nicotine: Implications for Mechanisms of Nicotine-Induced Activation of Orexin Neurons
Here, we used in vivo microdialysis to determine the effect of acute systemic or local nicotine on glutamate, acetylcholine, and GABA efflux in the LH/PFA of rats.

Automatic disfluency removal for improving spoken language translation
We examine the impact of disfluencies from broadcast conversation data on our hierarchical phrase-based SMT system and implement automatic disfluency removal approaches for cleansing the MT input.
