Increasingly more people use computers and create content using keyboards (even with leading edge touch-screen technology). As in the most part of the world, in Latvia also conventional "Qwerty" keyboard is used. Though for Latvian it is…
Smart phone and tablet usage has sharply increased for the last decade. While entering test on these devices, virtual keyboards are generally used instead of conventional hardware keyboards. In this study, a new problem which is two-finger…
The F-layout was introduced in 1955 and eventually enforced as a national standard as a replacement to the popular QWERTY keyboard layout in Turkey. In a more recent work, another alternative (E-layout) was developed for Turkish language…
We present experiments with part-of-speech tagging for Bulgarian, a Slavic language with rich inflectional and derivational morphology. Unlike most previous work, which has used a small number of grammatical categories, we work with 680…
We present BgGPT-Gemma-2-27B-Instruct and BgGPT-Gemma-2-9B-Instruct: continually pretrained and fine-tuned versions of Google's Gemma-2 models, specifically optimized for Bulgarian language understanding and generation. Leveraging Gemma-2's…
The digitization of historical documents is crucial for preserving the cultural heritage of the society. An important step in this process is converting scanned images to text using Optical Character Recognition (OCR), which can enable…
The standard QWERTY keyboard was developed in the late 1800s for the typewriters. As people were acquainted with that the same layout was retained for the computer keyboards. Many people feel that the QWERTY layout is not very efficient…
Search in collections of digitised historical documents is hindered by a two-prong problem, orthographic variety and optical character recognition (OCR) mistakes. We present a new search engine for historical documents, DuoSearch, which…
We present bgGLUE(Bulgarian General Language Understanding Evaluation), a benchmark for evaluating language models on Natural Language Understanding (NLU) tasks in Bulgarian. Our benchmark includes NLU tasks targeting a variety of NLP…
Our dictionary-based lemmatizer for the Bulgarian language presented here is distributed as free software, publicly available to download and use under the GPL v3 license. The presented software is written entirely in Java and is…
Quantum computing is deemed to require error correction at scale to mitigate physical noise by reducing it to lower noise levels while operating on encoded logical qubits. Popular quantum error correction schemes include CSS code, of which…

As the structure of Chinese characters are very different, it is very difficult to input Chinese characters into computer quickly and conveniently. The conventional keyboard does not support the pictorial characters in Chinese language.…
This paper proposes a framework to improve the typing experience of mobile users in morphologically rich languages. Smartphone keyboards typically support features such as input decoding, corrections and predictions that all rely on…
Model-assisted interval designs such as the Keyboard design are transparent and easy to implement in phase I oncology trials. However, interim decisions based solely on data from the current dose may overlook informative signals from…
Byzantine broadcast (BB) and Byzantine agreement (BA) are two most fundamental problems and essential building blocks in distributed computing, and improving their efficiency is of interest to both theoreticians and practitioners. In this…
