451 Cohen, ElaineConstant scallop height tool path generationAn approach for the automatic generation of constant scallop height tool paths is presented. An example is shown generated from a B-spline model, although it can be used with many types of sculptured surfaces. The approach utilizes surface subdivision techniques and a new algorithm for tool path gen...Scallop height; Tool path generation; B-spline model1989
452 Hansen, Charles D.Constrained inverse volume rendering for planetary nebulaeDetermining the three-dimensional structure of distant astronomical objects is a challenging task, given that terrestrial observations provide only one viewpoint.

458 Johnson, Christopher R.Construction of a human torso model from magnetic resonance images for problems in computational electrocardiographyApplying mathematical models to real situations often requires the use of discrete geometrical models of the solution domain. In some cases destructive measurement of the objects under examination is acceptable, but in biomedical applications the measurements come from imaging techniques such as X-r...Human torso model; MRI1994

462 Pershing, David W.Control of NOx emissionsNITROGEN OXIDES (NOX) are produced in combustion from molecular nitrogen (thermal NOx) or from oxidation of nitrogen contained in the fuel (fuel NOx). Production of NOx in a turbulent diffusion flame is largely dependent upon fuel composition and fuel/air contacting, which for liquid fuels is determ...Staged heat release; Tunnel furnace; Boiler simulator; Staged combustion1980
463 Stringfellow, Gerald B.Control of ordering in Ga0.5In0.5P using growth temperatureThe kinetic processes leading to ordering in Gas,, In o.4P8 have been studied by observing the effects of substrate misorientation (O-9), growth rate (0.1-0.5), and substrate temperature (570- 670 "C) during growth.

464 Riloff, Ellen M.Conundrums in noun phrase coreference resolution: making sense of the state-of-the-artWe aim to shed light on the state-of-the-art in NP coreference resolution by teasing apart the differences in the MUC and ACE task definitions, the assumptions made in evaluation methodologies, and inherent differences in text corpora. First, we examine three subproblems that play a role in coref...Noun phrase; Coreference resolution; MUC; ACE2009
465 Tiwari, AshutoshCopper diffusion characteristics in single crystal and polycrystalline TaNTaN has become a very promising diffusion barrier material for Cu interconnections, due to the high thermal stability requirement and thickness limitation for next generation ULSI devices. TaN has a variety of phases and Cu diffusion characteristics vary with different phases and microstructures. We...Diffusion barriers; Copper diffusion; Tantalum nitride2003

468 Riloff, Ellen M.Corpus-based approach for building semantic lexiconsSemantic knowledge can be a great asset to natural language processing systems, but it is usually hand-coded for each application. Although some semantic information is available in general-purpose knowledge bases such as Word Net and Cyc, many applications require domain-specific lexicons that repr...Corpus-based method; Semantic lexicons1997

470 Riloff, Ellen M.Corpus-based identification of non-anaphoric noun phrasesCoreference resolution involves finding antecedents for anaphoric discourse entities, such as definite noun phrases. But many definite noun phrases are not anaphoric because their meaning can be understood from general world knowledge (e.g., "the White House" or "the news media"). We have develope...Corpus-based identification; Non-anaphoric noun phrases; Coreference resolution; MUC-4; Discourse entity; DE1999
