Digital agriculture is the core of agriculturalinformatization. The enforcement of digital agriculture will greatly promote agricultural technologyrevolution, two agricultural transformations and its rapid development, and enhance China'scompetitive power after the entrance of WTO. To carry out digital agriculture, the frame system ofdigital agriculture is required to be studied in the first place. In accordance with the theory andtechnology of digital earth and in combination with the agricultural reality of China, this articleoutlines the frame system of digital agriculture and its main content arid technology support.展开更多

A text to speech (TTS) interface for UDL portal would enable access to the digital content in voice mode, and also provide access to the digital content for illiterate and vision-impaired people. Our work focuses on design and implementation of text to speech interface for UDL portal primarily for Indian languages. This paper is aimed at identifying the issues involved in integrating text to speech system into UDL portal and describes the development process of Hindi, Telugu and Tamil voices under Festvox framework using unit selection techniques. We demonstrate the quality of the Tamil and Telugu voices and lay out the plan for integrating the TTS into the UDL portal.展开更多

The framework is designed to deal with the problem of inefficiency for programmers to generate more and more diversified video transition, which is caused by excessive coupling between the sub-modules of the system. So the framework is designed to be modular, flexible and extensible. Based on the analysis of common features of different effects, the implementation of video transition effect is divided into 4 sub-odules, each of which can be designed and developed independently. Furthermore, these sub-modules can be easily sub- stituted, modified and reused. We present a formal description of our framework, and give typical study cases to show the extensive utility of the framework.展开更多

The current focus is on dissertation abstracts in the field of sociology. The summarization method uses macro-level and micro-level discourse structure to identify important information that can be extracted from dissertation abstracts, and then uses a variable-based framework to integrate and organize extracted information across dissertation abstracts. This framework focuses more on research concepts and their research relationships found in sociology dissertation abstracts and has a hierarchical structure. A taxonomy is constructed to support the summarization process in two ways: (1) helping to identify important concepts and relations expressed in the text, and (2) providing a structure for linking similar concepts in different abstracts. This paper describes the variable-based framework and the summarization process, and then reports the construction of the taxonomy for supporting the summarization process. An example is provided to show how to use the constructed taxonomy to identify important concepts and integrate the concepts extracted from different abstracts.展开更多
