HEAD TO HEAD: SEMANTIC SIMILARITY OF MULTI–WORD TERMS

Head to Head: Semantic Similarity of Multi–Word Terms

Terms are linguistic signifiers of domain-specific concepts.Semantic similarity between terms refers to the corresponding distance in the conceptual space.In this paper, we use lexico-syntactic information to define a vector space representation in which cosine similarity closely approximates semantic similarity between the corresponding terms.Give

Placental Pathology of COVID-19 with and without Fetal and Neonatal Infection: Trophoblast Necrosis and Chronic Histiocytic Intervillositis as Risk Factors for Transplacental Transmission of SARS-CoV-2

The mechanism(s) by which neonates testing positive for coronavirus disease 2019 Grooming and Care (COVID-19) acquire their infection has been largely unknown.Transmission of the etiological agent, SARS-CoV-2, from mother to infant has been suspected but has been difficult to confirm.This communication summarizes the spectrum of pathology findings

Planting the seeds for a forest of RNAi pathways

Cells from most eukaryotic species make several different types of small interfering RNAs.Pioneering work in plants, oval hair brush published in PLOS Biology almost 20 years ago, established a framework to understand how multiple RNA interference pathways can regulate the genome in parallel.This Perspective looks back at a classic PLOS Biology pap
