Synopsis
Maximum beef gains from summer grazing were produced with Coastal bermudagrass fertilized with 400 pounds per acre of nitrogen. Rotational grazing of Coastal bermudagrass increased beef gains very little. Protein content of the grasses varied according to season and fertilization rate but was not the factor limiting production.
While there are many aspects to managing corporate knowledge, one key issue is how to organize corporate documents into categories of interest. In this paper, we focus on using user assisted text classification in conjunction with a web portal, multiple document management systems and an ontology, to provide a powerful solution for organizing information about a company's technology. We propose a system that interacts with an author using an automatic text classifier to suggest controlled keywords to be used as metadata. The proposed approach does not require professional librarians or that the end users have extensive training. The use of a controlled vocabulary allows for a more consistent description of corporate documents, and promotes easier access by people across the company. It is easier to find similar documents which use different nomenclature. Finally, the interactive nature of the system results in a more correct and precise description of each document than a fully automatic system would.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
