Data-Driven Part-of-Speech Tagging of Kiswahili
(School of computing and informatics University of Nairobi, 2006)In this paper we present experiments with data-driven part-of-speech taggers trained and evaluated on the annotated Helsinki Corpus of Swahili. Using four of the current state-of-the-art data-driven taggers, TnT, MBT, ... -
DDT and metabolites in fish from Lake Edward, Uganda
(Department of Chemistry, 2009)This paper presents results based on determination of residue levels of 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis[p-chlorophenyl]ethane (DDT) and its metabolites in five fish species from Rwenshama landing site on Lake Edward, Uganda. The ... -
DEALING WITH SENSITIVE AND VARIABLE SOILS IN NAIROBI CITY
(IJRASDepartment of Geology, University of Nairobi, 2011)Nairobi City is mainly underlain by pyroclastic volcanic rocks that were deposited during the formation of the East African Rift Valley. Some of the volcanic rocks were deposited in aqueous conditions over a long period ... -
Decadal trends and common dynamics of the bio-optical and thermal characteristics of the african great lakes.
(University of Nairobi, 2014-04)The Great Lakes of East Africa are among the world's most important freshwater ecosystems. Despite their importance in providing vital resources and ecosystem services, the impact of regional and global environmental drivers ... -
Decision support in breeding program in the Kenya Dairy cattle Prediction and Rule extraction using Neural Network System
(School of Computing and Informatics, 2008)An important characteristic of all natural systems is the ability to acquire knowledge through experience and to adapt to new situations. This report presents findings on the use of neural networks to make predictions ... -
Decomposition and Nitrogen Release Rates of Buried Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) Residue in a Mollic Phaeozem of Njoro, Kenya
(2010)Synchronization of nutrient release from organic material and nutrient uptake requires a better understanding of plant residue decomposition kinetics. A field experiment was consequently conducted, at field 7 research ... -
Decomposition of grasses in Nairobi National Park Kenya
(University of Nairobi, 1985)The litter-bag technique was used to estimate decomposition rates of standing-dead grass and grass litter in Nairobi National Park. Decomposition was extremely slow. After almost 2 years standing-dead and litter had lost ... -
