This work was motivated by the following two problems from the classical representation theory. (Both problems make sense for an arbitrary complex semisimple Lie algebra but since we shall deal only with the Ar case, we formulate them in this generality). 1. Construct a “good” basis in every irreducible finite-dimensional slr+1-module Vλ, which “materializes” the Littlewood-Richardson rule. A p...

In comparison with standard HMM (Hidden Markov Model) with forced alignment, this paper discusses two automatic segmentation algorithms from different points of view: the probabilities of insertion and omission, and the accuracy. The first algorithm, hereafter named the refined HMM algorithm, aims at refining the segmentation performed by standard HMM via a GMM (Gaussian Mixture Model) of each ...

In Bacillus sphaericus and other Bacillus spp., D-amino acid transaminase has been considered solely responsible for biosynthesis of D-glutamate, an essential component of cell wall peptidoglycan, in contrast to the glutamate racemase employed by many other bacteria. We report here the cloning of the dat gene encoding D-amino acid transaminase and the glr gene encoding a glutamate racemase from...

In this paper, the problem of target detection in colocated “multi-input multi-output” (MIMO) radars is considered. A pulse-train signaling is assumed to be used in this system. As the doppler effect should be considered for the pulse-train signaling, we are confronted by a compound hypothesis testing problem, so in this paper a Generalized Likelihood Ratio (GLR) detector is derived. The high c...

In their recogniser forms, the Earley and RIGLR algorithms for testing whether a string can be derived from a grammar are worst-case cubic on general context free grammars (CFG). Earley gave an outline of a method for turning his recognisers into parsers, but it turns out that this method is incorrect. Tomita’s GLR parser returns a shared packed parse forest (SPPF) representation of all derivat...

Time-varying coefficient models are useful in longitudinal data analysis. Various efforts have been invested for the estimation of the coefficient functions, based on the least squares principle. Related work includes smoothing spline and kernel methods among others, but these methods suffer from the shortcoming of non-robustness. In this paper, we introduce a local M-estimation method for esti...

Neuroactive peptides are packaged as proproteins into dense core vesicles or secretory granules, where they are cleaved at dibasic residues by copackaged proprotein convertases. We show here that the Caenorhabditis elegans egl-3 gene encodes a protein that is 57% identical to mouse proprotein convertase type 2 (PC2), and we provide evidence that this convertase regulates mechanosensory response...

Abstract The necessity to reduce the consumption of cement in cementitious composites is a worldwide concern and partial replacement with industrial waste has gathered considerable interest. One type glass, which rich amorphous silica but can present problems its use due alkali-silica reaction (ASR). objective this study was analyze compressive strengths mortars using ground glass residue (GLR)...

This paper presents a massively parallel parser that predicts critical attachment behaviors of the human sentence processor, without the use of explicit preference heuristics or revision strategies. The processing of a syntactic ambiguity is modeled as an active, distributed competition among the potential attachments for a phrase. Computationally motivated constraints on the competitive mechan...

For sequential jumps detection, isolation, and estimation in discrete-time stochastic linear systems, Willsky and Jones (1976) have developed the Generalized Likelihood Ratio (GLR) test. After each detection and isolation of one jump, the treatment of another possible jump is obtained by a direct state estimate and covariance incrementation of the Kalman filter originally designed on the jump-f...
