The parity of the length of paths and cycles is a classical and well-studied topic in graph theory and theoretical computer science. The parity constraints can be extended to the label constraints in a group-labeled graph, which is a directed graph with a group label on each arc. Recently, paths and cycles in group-labeled graphs have been investigated, such as finding non-zero disjoint paths a...

Hate speech in the form of racism and sexism is commonplace on the internet (Waseem and Hovy, 2016). For this reason, there has been both an academic and an industry interest in detection of hate speech. The volume of data to be reviewed for creating data sets encourages a use of crowd sourcing for the annotation efforts. In this paper, we provide an examination of the influence of annotator kn...

During the planning phase of modern, complex, block-structured, large-area located, but still landscape-harmonized health-care buildings, the key is the optimal positioning of the blocks and functions, simultaneously ensuring the most-effective backup-paths for any transportation route failure in the buildings in order to speed up system operation, reduce maintenance costs and especially to imp...

B ecause genetic events do not fossilize, we are forced to deduce the evolution of bacterial genomes by comparing the features of contemporary organisms. This comparative approach has exposed many of the alterations endured by bacterial genomes (bouts of expansion and contraction or changes in base compositions), but such reconstructions are often imprecise, and sometimes incorrect, because the...

Thematic structure, an important factor for textual metafunction, plays a significant role in inspecting and promoting the textual coherence. With a theoretical statement of Thematic theory and TP patterns, this paper proposes the feasibility of the Thematic Operational Approach in the teaching of college English writing. This approach is proved to not only strengthen students’ application awar...

As a grammatical device, Theme-Rheme structure plays an important role in organizing and analyzing discourse. Theme Progression patterns (hereinafter called TP patterns) are significant method of the analysis of textual cohesion and organization. Based on linguist Danes’ theory about TP patterns, this paper tries to present a contrastive analysis of the texts of consecutive interpretation in En...
