Empirical Studies of Patterning

postnatal studies of bats (pipistrellus kuhlii and miniopterus schreibersii) & histomorphology and histochemistry studies of organs and diseases of (neurergus microspilotus and n. kaiseri)

1. to determine whether difference in birth body mass influenced growth performance in pipistrellus kuhlii we studied a total of 12 captive-born neonates. bats were assigned to two body mass groups: light birth body mass (lbw: 0.89 ± 0.05, n=8) and heavy birth body mass (hbw: 1.35 ± 0.08, n=4). heavier body mass at birth was associated with rapid postnatal growth (body mass and forearm length) ...

Empirical Studies of Sentence Processing

My PhD thesis concerns a recurrent neural network model which will be trained to comprehend and produce sentences drawn from a fairly large subset of English grammar. In order to validate and better understand the model, its performance will be compared to that of humans on a wide range of sentence processing tests. The purpose of this chapter is to summarize a variety of reliable empirical fin...

A Review of Empirical Studies

advantages and limitations compared with those of traditional shopping, the characteristics of e-shoppers, and the factors affecting the adoption and usage of e-shopping. Since the late 1990s, a growing number of empirical studies have addressed these questions. For example, Chang et al. (5) classified the determinants of e-shopping behavior into three categories: perceived characteristics of t...

Empirical Studies In Discourse

Computational theories of discourse are concerned with the context-based interpretation or generation of discourse phenomena in text and dialogue. In the past, research in this area focused on specifying the mechanisms underlying particular discourse phenomena; the models proposed were often motivated by a few constructed examples. While this approach led to many theoretical advances, models de...
