In Korean, the Internally Headed Relative Clause Construction (IHRC), illustrated in (1), the Direct Perception Construction (DPC), illustrated in (2), and the factive Propositional Attitude Construction (PAC), illustrated in (3), appear to have an identical syntactic structure: the complements of the verbs consist of clausal material and the grammatical element kes (Kim 1984, Jhang 1994, Chung...

My research studies trust-based coordination among agents in dynamic, open systems. Such systems arise. Modern systems (e.g., service-oriented systems) embrace a distributed setting where a system consists of multiple autonomous parties. These individual parties have their own goals and achieve them by interacting with each other. Trust provides a basis for effective interaction, helping agents...

A joint conditional probability model is proposed to represent a measure of a future landslide hazard, and five estimation procedures for the model are presented. The distribution of past landslides was divided into two groups with respect to a fixed time. A training set consisting of the earlier landslides and the geographical information system-based multi-layer spatial data in the study area...

In this paper we prove a strengthening of the classical Chung-Feller theorem and a weighted version for Schröder paths. Both results are proved by refined bijections which are developed from the study of Taylor expansions of generating functions. By the same technique, we establish variants of the bijections for Catalan paths of order d and certain families of Motzkin paths. Moreover, we obtain...

Chung, F., P. Diaconis and R. Graham, Universal cycles for combinatorial structures, Discrete Mathematics 110 (1992) 43-59 In this paper, we explore generalizations of de Bruijn cycles for a variety of families of combinatorial structures, including permutations, partitions and subsets of a finite set.

This comment is to show that Theorem3.3 of Dey and Chung (1991) (Multiparameter estimation intruncated power series distributions under the Stein's loss.emph{Commun. Statist.-Theory Meth.,} {bf 20}, 309-326) may giveus misleading results. Analytically and through simulation, weshow that the Theorem does not improve the given estimator.
