Producers and farm workers are exposed to whole-body vibration (WBV) on a regular basis when operating farm machinery. The short-term effect of WBV include cognitive impairment and musculoskeletal disorders, such as low back pain. To aid in promoting worker cognitive and musculoskeletal health, rest and/or activity breaks may provide relief from these hazards and can […]

To further the speed and efficiency of knowledge acquisition from academic works, it would be useful to know, at quick glance, key information from the text. In academic works, key information would include named entities and their relationships, arguments, event descriptions, and topics contained in the text. We propose an automated system to extract the […]
