Using Functional and Organizational Information to Improve Genome-Wide Computational Prediction of Transcription Units on Pathway/Genome Databases
We implemented a TU predictor that uses only intergenic distance and functional classification of genes to predict TU boundaries, and applied it to EcoCyc, our PGDB of Escherichia coli.

A Fine-Grained Evaluation Method for Speech-to-Speech Machine Translation Using Concept Annotations
This paper describes the development of a concept annotation method for evaluating a narrow domain speech-to-speech translation system and discusses how the scores produced by that method relate to naïve…
