This paper proposed a multi-scale segmentation method for remote sensing image based on mathematical morphology. In mathematical morphological operations, opening transform can extract lighter connected components and closing transform can extract darker ones with size smaller than a given structure element in a gray image. A connected component, as an object, may have a high response to a give...

With the aim of determining the connection between the indicators of body posture and latent structure of morphological variables in children aged 7 and 8 years, first and second grade of primary school, a set of 17 morphological measures and 12 body posture indicators were longitudinally applied to a sample of 110 boys and 114 girls. The latent structure of morphological variables in both sexe...

Based on the results from three Event-Related Potential (ERP) studies, we show how the degree of grammaticalization of prosodic features influences their impact on syntactic and morphological processing. Thus, results indicate that only lexicalized word accents influence morphological processing. Furthermore, it is shown how an assumed semi-grammaticalized left-edge boundary tone activates main...

A new hardware structure for implementation of soft morphological filters is presented in this paper. This is based on the modification of the majority gate technique. A pipelined systolic array architecture suitable to perform real-time soft morphological filtering is presented as an illustrative example. The processing times of the proposed hardware structure do not depend on the data window ...

This paper describes a novel agglutinative language modeling strategy for Uyghur with graphic language model as structure. In graphic modeling language model, sentences are organized by morphemes as a directed graph, which is different from the linear structure in n-gram language models. The graphic language model is verified in two typical natural language processing application scenarios, mor...

The present paper describes the ultrastructure of the surface topography, head organ, tegument, musculature, glandular system, primary alimentary tract and flame cells of the Chinese mainland strain of Schistosoma japonicum cercaria, as visualized with both scanning and transmission electron microscopes. The results not only illustrate the morphological features of the cercarial surface and its...

When translating between two languages that differ in their degree of morphological synthesis, syntactic structures in one language may be realized as morphological structures in the other, and SMT models need a mechanism to learn such translations. Prior work has used morpheme splitting with flat representations that do not encode the hierarchical structure between morphemes, but this structur...

Natural languages vary widely in the degree to which they make use of hierarchical composition in their grammars, in particular, the degree to which syntactic versus morphological means of composition are utilized. Languages historically spoken in small communities develop much deeper levels of morphological embedding than those spoken by larger groups, an observation confirmed by a statistical...

Taxonomic study of the genus Padina (Dictyotales, Phaeophyceae) from the Persian Gulf coast was conducted based on morphology and molecular phylogenetic analyses using chloroplast encoded large subunit RuBisCo (rbcL) gene sequences. Detailed descriptions of each species found in this study are described. Several morphological characters, such as number of cell layers composing the thallus, pr...

2 Morphological Structure of the Dene Verb The morphological structure of verbs in Dene languages is considered to be about as complex as it can get among the languages of the world. However, the overall structure, with outer (disjunct), inner (conjunct), and stem ‘zones’ of verb (cf. Kari 1989) is not generally, and thus computationally, difficult to model. What is seen as most challenging pri...
