Technical documentation

Abstract: Machine techniques for reducing technical documents to their essential discriminating indices are investigated. Human scanning patterns in selecting "topic sentences" and phrases composed of nouns and modifiers were simulated by computer program. The amount of condensation resulting from each method and the relative uniformity in indices are examined. It is shown that the coordinated index provided by the phrase is the more meaningful and discriminating.

Abstract: 28 April 2015 NOAA reprocessed the global IR data for 10 UTC 26 April through 14 UTC 27 April due to dropped images, however there is no straightforward way to re-do the Early and Late Runs, so that period should display somewhat lower quality in the regions that lack IR input. 17 April 2015 IMERG Early and Late Runs ceased when CPC Global 4 km Merged IR data dropped out, starting 17 UTC 14 April due to processing issues at NOAA, and were caught up after the data returned around 11 UTC 17 April. 8 April 2015 End of TMI data 1 April 2015 Initial release of IMERG Late Run (V03D); beta release of Day-1 IMERG Early Run. 13 March 2015 Beta release of Day-1 IMERG Late Run. 20 January 2015 Revised release of IMERG Final Run (V03D). 16 January 2015 Initial release retracted due to minor inconsistencies in “missing” values. 15 January 2015 Initial release of IMERG Final Run (V03D). 4 December 2014 Beta release of Day-1 IMERG Final Run for Early Adopters.
