Parker’s The animal research war is not at all unique. The transcontinental, coordinated targeting of a researcher by those who oppose the use of animal models is only one of countless examples of intimidation and harassment e...

This work presents methods of assessing non-native speech to aid computer-assisted pronunciation teaching. These methods are based on automatic speech recognition (ASR) techniques using Hidden Markov Models. Conn-dence scores at the phoneme level are calculated to provide detailed information about the pronunciation quality of a foreign language student. Experimental results are given based on ...

We give an intrinsic proof that Vorobjev’s first approximation of a Poisson manifold near a symplectic leaf is a Poisson manifold. We also show that Conn’s linearization results cannot be extended in Vorobjev’s setting.

Title of Dissertation: SELF-DIRECTED LEARNING IN THE WORKPLACE Amy Buhl Conn, Doctor ofPhilosophy, 2000 Dissertation directed by: Professor and Dean Irwin L. Goldstein College of Behavioral and Social Sciences C: L Rapid changes in workplace (e.g., technology, organizational structure) increase the complexity of work which, in turn, increases the demand for continual learning. Current training ...

We show that if a graph G satisfies certain conditions, then the connectivity of neighbourhood complex N(G) is strictly less than vertex G. As an application, we give relation between and for stiff chordal graphs, weakly triangulated graphs satisfying properties. Next, consider with v such any k-subset S neighbours v, there exists vS≠v subset vS. prove as above, N(G−{v}) (k−1)-connected implies...
