Reconstruction of femoral length from fragmentary femora
The reconstruction of femoral length (FL) from fragmentary femora is an essential step in estimating stature from fragmentary skeletal remains in forensic investigations. While regression formulae for doing this have been suggested for several populations, such formulae have not been established for Ghanaian skeletal remains. This study, therefore, seeks to derive regression formulae for recons...
متن کاملSome Implications of Relative Biornechanical Neck Length in Hominid Femora
Demonstration of a size-based influence on relative biomechanical neck length of the femur predicts relatively longer necks for smaller femurs. Fossil hominids through the middle Pleistocene appear to have relatively longer femur necks than expected from this relation, excepting the two small australopithecine females. I t is suggested that this variation results from smaller crania a t birth i...
متن کاملLanguage learning from fragmentary input
A model of vocabulary and grammar acquisition is presented. Two agents are involved in the simulation, a mother and a child. The mother is equipped from the outset with a substantial knowledge of language, in the form of two sets of rules. Her lexical rules map atomic meanings (‘concepts’) onto words. Her grammatical rules state generalizations about mappings between complex meanings and string...
