Airflow as a discriminative stimulus1

Inflection Generation as Discriminative String Transduction

We approach the task of morphological inflection generation as discriminative string transduction. Our supervised system learns to generate word-forms from lemmas accompanied by morphological tags, and refines them by referring to the other forms within a paradigm. Results of experiments on six diverse languages with varying amounts of training data demonstrate that our approach improves the st...

Initial characterization of PMMA as a discriminative stimulus.

The phenylisopropylamine PMMA or N-methyl-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-aminopropane, a structural hybrid of paramethoxyamphetamine (PMA) and methamphetamine, has been previously shown to unexpectedly lack amphetamine-like or hallucinogen-like stimulus properties in animals. For example, in tests of stimulus generalization, neither a (+)amphetamine stimulus nor a DOM stimulus generalized to PMMA. It ha...

ترجمه بخشی از کتاب translation as a profession (حرفه ترجمه)

دانیل گوداک در این کتاب فوق العاده خواندنی درباره دومین حرفه در جهان آشکارا سخن می گوید و معتقد است که گرچه گاهی اوقات بیان واقعیت زیان آور است، اما در عین حال چشم انداز روشن و امیدوارکننده ای از حرفه ترجمه را ترسیم می نماید. مزیت و برتری اصلی کتاب در کامل بودنش است. گوداک دید عمیقی از حرفه ترجمه را ارائه می دهد که برای تشویق مترجمان و همچنین برای مترجمان واقعی که درباره شغل شان تجدیدنظر و تف...

A discriminative HCNN modeling

Airflow elicits a spider's jump towards airborne prey. I. Airflow around a flying blowfly.

The hunting spider Cupiennius salei uses airflow generated by flying insects for the guidance of its prey-capture jump. We investigated the velocity field of the airflow generated by a freely flying blowfly close to the flow sensors on the spider's legs. It shows three characteristic phases (I-III). (I) When approaching, the blowfly induces an airflow signal near the spider with only little flu...
