          In effect, in force (though that usually for a policy that forces people to do - or not do - some specified thing), in some cases deployed. There are a few options.



          In run isn't one of them. It's not even grammatical, I'm afraid. Running, the progressive participle, would be understandable, and even natural for some sorts of policy. "Alaska currently runs a UBI scheme" would be perfectly suitable. But in run has the dual problems of being ungrammatical and not used (one does not necessarily guarantee the other).

          • Thx, I don't see how would it be ungrammatical, tho. What is the grammatical difference between the theoretical phrase in run and in effect? Phrases often don't "correspond" to the grammaticality of their compounds.

          • Effect is a noun, in that sense. In the sense you are trying to use it, run is not a noun. You can't be in a bare infinitive verb. Where run is a noun, it means a route for running along, or a period of time spent running - and it's countable, so even if you did talk about something being in a run in that sense, it would be in a run, or in the run - and it's a different sense of run in the first place.

          • No. Whether that's because you consider in effect a set phrase, or because of a property of the word effect, the phrase in the effect would be incorrect in this case. It would be correct in other (rarer) cases, where it has a different meaning.

          effective would work; Oxford Dictionaries even cites it as being used for a policy:





          1. Successful in producing a desired or intended result.


          1.1 (of a law, rule, or policy) operative.



          ‘the regulation will be effective from January’




          A variation on this would be in effect, and operative or in operation would work as well.

          • You need to be careful with "effective" here, because meanings 1 and 1.1 quoted above can be opposite in some situations. A law which is operative may not necessarily produce the desired or intended results! - e.g. "The regulation which will be effective from January will not be effective" :)

          • Effect is a noun, in that sense. In the sense you are trying to use it, run is not a noun. You can't be in a bare infinitive verb. Where run is a noun, it means a route for running along, or a period of time spent running - and it's countable, so even if you did talk about something being in a run in that sense, it would be in a run, or in the run - and it's a different sense of run in the first place.

          • No. Whether that's because you consider in effect a set phrase, or because of a property of the word effect, the phrase in the effect would be incorrect in this case. It would be correct in other (rarer) cases, where it has a different meaning.

          I haven't heard that usage before, but I'm not a native speaker myself.

          @Probably Note that it would be idiomatic to say that a newly enacted policy is now running (or, better, now up and running) somewhere. It would apply only in the case of something new.

          You need to be careful with "effective" here, because meanings 1 and 1.1 quoted above can be opposite in some situations. A law which is operative may not necessarily produce the desired or intended results! - e.g. "The regulation which will be effective from January will not be effective" :)

          How to label and detect the document text images

          Image
          1 $begingroup$ This is what I mean as document text image: I want to label the texts in image as separate blocks and my model should detect these labels as classes. NOTE: This is how the end result should be like: The labels like Block 1, Block 2, Block 3,.. should be Logo, Title, Date,.. Others, etc. Work done: First approach : I tried to implement this method via Object Detection, it didn't work. It didn't even detect any text. Second approach : Then I tried it using PixelLink. As this model is build for scene text detection, it detected each and every text in the image. But this method can detect multiple lines of text if the threshold values are increased. But I have no idea how do I add labels to the text blocks. PIXEL_CLS_WEIGHT_all_ones = 'PIXEL_CLS_WEIGHT_all_ones' PIXEL_C...

          Tabula Rosettana

          Image
          Tabula multilinguis Rosettana in Museo Britannico ostenditur. Tabula Rosettana, [1] etiam titulo OGIS 90 agnita, est stela decreto de rebus sacris in Aegypto anno 196 a.C.n. lato inscripta. Tabula iuxta Rosettam Aegypti, urbem in delta Nili et ad oram maris Mediterranei iacentem, anno 1799 a milite Francico reperta est. Inventio stelae, linguis duabus scripturisque tribus inscriptae, eruditis Instituti Aegypti statim nuntiata est; ibi enim iussu imperatoris Napoleonis eruditi omnium scientiarum (sub aegide Commissionis Scientiarum et Artium) properaverant cum expeditione Francica. Qua a Britannis mox debellata, tabula Rosettana Londinium missa hodie apud Museum Britannicum iacet. Textus Graecus cito lectus interpretationi textuum Aegyptiorum (in formis hieroglyphica et demotica expressorum) gradatim adiuvit. Denique textum plene interpretatus est Ioannes Franciscus Champollion. Ab opere eruditorum cumulativo coepit hodiernus scripturae hieroglyphicae linguaeque Aegyptiae a...
