Popular culture has become the soft power policy of countries and been used as an important tool for promoting their own in other countries. In this study, it is aimed to investigate effect Korean (Hallyu/Korean wave) which element popular culture, increasing Turkey, especially on social media, parallel with world, purchasing behavior products along country image cultural proximity. For purpose...

We show how the spatial character of unconstrained motion in a network of bonds can be directly inferred from the topological arrangement of constraints. Relaxation time scales of these soft modes are determined, and from this information we generate spatial maps of the heterogeneous distribution of relaxation times in the disordered network. We show that the nature of the dynamic heterogeneity...

In design of ergonomic interface it is crucial to make the most of abstract representations to convey various aspects of the semantic content. We are developing interface based on joining users’ visual computing skills to the soft computing capability of fuzzy logic to model the proximity relationship of the document corpus onto 3D visual representations. The paper presents the main ideas behin...

Using data from the 2004 Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe, this article continues and extends recent cross-national research on proximity and contacts of older parents to their children. In addition to a brief description of the geography of families in 10 continental European countries, determinants of intergenerational proximity and contacts are examined. Even when microlevel...

the average distance of a vertex $v$ of a connected graph $g$is the arithmetic mean of the distances from $v$ to allother vertices of $g$. the proximity $pi(g)$ and the remoteness $rho(g)$of $g$ are defined as the minimum and maximum averagedistance of the vertices of $g$. in this paper we investigate the difference between proximity or remoteness and the classical distanceparameters diameter a...

We study L-categories of lattice-valued convergence spaces. Suchcategories are obtained by fuzzifying" the axioms of a lattice-valued convergencespace. We give a natural example, study initial constructions andfunction spaces. Further we look into some L-subcategories. Finally we usethis approach to quantify how close certain lattice-valued convergence spacesare to being lattice-valued topologi...

We introduce a new problem in the study of doubling spaces: Given a point set S and a target dimension d∗, remove from S the fewest number of points so that the remaining set has doubling dimension at most d∗. We present a bicriteria approximation for this problem, and extend this algorithm to solve a group of proximity problems.

Abstract The multifunctional soft sensor developed here is capable of simultaneously sensing six stimuli, including pressure, bending strain, temperature, proximity, UV light, and humidity, with high accuracy without interference among the respective built-in components. fabricated via a facile, scalable, cost-effective supersonic cold-spraying method using silver nanowires (AgNWs), carbon nano...

We propose the proximity clustering (PxC) algorithm, which finds the spatially diverse but semantically similar data-point colonies in the form of a dominant class cluster. It searches through different proximity metric spaces for revealing the hidden porous data pattern. For each data-point, it provides the degree of belongingness to a dominant cluster and thereby performing the soft clusterin...
