The collocation problem for noisy data with a piecewise constant noise variance is considered. An equivalence to the WIENERKOLMOGOROV equations in stationary collocation theory is constructed. A numerical solution based on HAAR wavelets is given.

The collocation of software development teams is common, especially in agile software development environments. However little is known about the impact of collocation on the team’s effectiveness. This paper explores the impact of collocating agile software development teams on a number of team effectiveness factors. The study focused on South African software development teams and gathered dat...

Mand training is an essential component of verbal behavior training for any individual who lacks this skill. The current study replicates and extends, with some procedural differences, the work of Hall and Sundberg (1987) by using an interrupted chain procedure to teach mands for missing items to children with autism. The participants were 3 children with autism, ranging between 5 and 8 years o...

‎In this paper‎, ‎an approach based on statistical spline model (SSM) and collocation method is proposed to solve Volterra-Fredholm integral equations‎. ‎The set of collocation nodes is chosen so that the points yield minimal error in the nodal polynomials‎. ‎Under some standard assumptions‎, ‎we establish the convergence property of this approach‎. ‎Numerical results on some problems are given...

the objective of this paper ts to investigate into the lexical collocation in persian language. to achieve this goal , the existing literature will be reviewed, so as to put forward the relation between lexical collocation and the theory of semantic fields

In this article, we propose the use of partitioning and clustering methods as an alternative to Gaussian quadrature for stochastic collocation (SC). The key idea is to use cluster centers as the nodes for collocation. In this way, we can extend the use of collocation methods to uncertainty propagation with multivariate, correlated input. The approach is particularly useful in situations where t...

The appropriate use of collocations is a challenge for second language acquisition. However, high quality and easily accessible Chinese collocation resources are not available for both teachers and students. This paper presents the design and construction of a large scale resource of Chinese collocational knowledge, and a web-based application (OCCA, Online Chinese Collocation Assistant) which ...

The selection of features is critical in providing discriminative information for classifiers in Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD). Uninformative features will degrade the performance of classifiers. Based on the strong evidence that an ambiguous word expresses a unique sense in a given collocation, this paper reports our experiments on automatic WSD using collocation as local features based on t...
