In this paper, we want to show that mental models provide the adequate level for explaining complex anaphoric phenomena, like donkey sentences. The key idea is that anaphora can be more easily resolved by referring to an extensional representation of the meaning of sentences, like the one provided by mental models.

We propose a system for the interpretation of anaphoric relationships between unbound pronouns and quantifiers. The main technical contribution of our proposal consists in combining generalized quantifiers with dependent types. Empirically, our system allows a uniform treatment of all types of unbound anaphora, including the notoriously difficult cases such as quantificational subordination, cu...

The mule is a sterile hybrid domestic animal that results from the breeding of male donkey with female horse, understanding reproductive biology these species very critical. goal this paper was to perform comparative and more accurate histomorphometric testicles in Barb donkeys mules. Microscopic examinations histological description were carried on genital tract horses, mules healthy mature; s...

Donkey milk is acknowledged as a valuable nutritional source in the human diet, well known for its bioactive and functional properties. Therefore, main goal of this research was to investigate similarities between donkey after six months lactation with respect lipid composition, fat globule particle size distribution, antioxidant activity, mineral content. These components are related propertie...

We have prepared a murine monoclonal antibody (MAb) capable of distinguishing between wild-type Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) virus and the TC-83 vaccine derivative. This MAb, 1A2B-10, was derived from immunization with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the first 19 amino acids of the E2 glycoprotein of Trinidad donkey VEE virus. The MAb reacts with prototype viruses from all nat...
