SOME THEORETICAL ISSUES IN SYNTAX

Some theoretical issues in heavy flavour physics

Some of the recent developments in heavy flavour physics will be reviewed. This will include an update on some of the Standard Model predictions, and a summary of recent measurements that may indicate the presence of new physics (NP). The focus will be on selected models of NP that are indicated by the anomalies in the current data. Observables that can potentially yield signatures of specific ...

Human Resource Development: Some Theoretical Issues

Atypical handedness in schizophrenia: some methodological and theoretical issues.

An updated review of the literature strongly supports the view that in schizophrenia there is an atypical leftward shift in the handedness distribution that, while comprising different subtypes, is characterized by a more variable and less completely lateralized pattern of manual preference, referred to as mixed handedness (MH) or ambiguous handedness (AH). Only two studies revealed an increase...

Issues in Relating Syntax Semantics

The design of a natural language understanding system is dependent on a rich and structured knowledge representation. Much recent work in computational and cognitive linguistics has focused on representations for syntactic and morphological knowledge. Similarly, the knowledge representation paradigm has proposed many conceptual tools for the representation of semantic knowledge. Combining the t...

Emotion research and AI : Some theoretical and technical issues

This paper describes an approach that uses interactive computer games as an experimental setting for the study of emotion, behavior, and nonverbal communication. In the first, more technical part, we present a method that allows to automatically code facial behavior of a subject playing a computer game. In this procedure, facial behavior is registered automatically with the aid of small plastic...
