The main challen...The weapon and equipment operational requirement analysis(WEORA) is a necessary condition to win a future war,among which the acquisition of knowledge about weapons and equipment is a great challenge. The main challenge is that the existing weapons and equipment data fails to carry out structured knowledge representation, and knowledge navigation based on natural language cannot efficiently support the WEORA. To solve above problem, this research proposes a method based on question answering(QA) of weapons and equipment knowledge graph(WEKG) to construct and navigate the knowledge related to weapons and equipment in the WEORA. This method firstly constructs the WEKG, and builds a neutral network-based QA system over the WEKG by means of semantic parsing for knowledge navigation. Finally, the method is evaluated and a chatbot on the QA system is developed for the WEORA. Our proposed method has good performance in the accuracy and efficiency of searching target knowledge, and can well assist the WEORA.展开更多

The pathogenic mechanisms underlying tobaccorelated cancers are well characterized and efective programs have led to a decline in smoking and related cancers, but there is a global epidemic of obesity without a clear understanding of how obesity causes cancer. Obesity is heterogeneous, and approximately 25% of obese individuals remain healthy(metabolically healthy obese, MHO), so which fat deposition(subcutaneous versus visceral, adipose versus ectopic) is "malignant"? What is the mechanism of carcinogenesis? Is it by metabolic dysregulation or chronic inflammation? Through which chemokines/genes/signaling pathways does adipose tissue influence carcinogenesis? Can selective inhibition of these pathways uncouple obesity from cancers? Do all obesity related cancers(ORCs) share a molecular signature? Are there common(overlapping) genetic loci that make individuals susceptible to obesity, metabolic syndrome, and cancers? Can we identify precursor lesions of ORCs and will early intervention of high risk individuals alter the natural history? It appears unlikely that the obesity epidemic will be controlled anytime soon; answers to these questions will help to reduce the adverse efect of obesity on human condition.展开更多

This syndrome includes rheumatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, osseous arthritis, and various neuralgia. The endogenous causative factors for the occurrence of Bi-syndrome are insufficiency of yang-qi, essence and blood, while the exogenous causative factors are the pathogenic wind, cold, and dampness. At the initial stage of the disease, the excessiveness of pathogen usually prevails, and the disease tends to be located in the limbs, skin and muscles, and channels and collaterals; while at the chronic stage, there often exists deficiency of the vital-qi or deficiency and excess intermixed, and the disease tends to be located deeper in the tendons and bones or in the zang-fu organs.展开更多

As a result, thousands of data can be retrieved (overabundant answer) or, even worse, no data at all (empty answer). In both cases, the queries must be reformulated to produce more significant results and, typically, many related queries are submitted by a user before he can be finally satisfied. To overcome these problems, this paper proposes a unified solution in the framework of flexible queries with fuzzy semantics. This solution, based on the concept of semantic proximity and implemented in a tool for flexible query answering, allows the automatic reformulation of queries with empty or overabundant answers.展开更多
