We analyze the structure of reduced expressions in the Coxeter groups An, Bn and Dn. Several special classes of elements are singled out for their connections with symmetric functions or the theory of P -partitions. Membership in these special classes is characterized in a variety of ways, including forbidden patterns, forbidden subwords, and by the form of canonically chosen reduced words.

We introduce and study a class of simplicial complexes, the orphan complexes, associated to simple graphs whose family of (open or closed) vertex-neighborhoods are anti-Sperner. Under suitable restrictions, we show that orphan complexes of such graphs are always shellable and provide a characterization of graphs in terms of induced forbidden subgraphs contained in this restricted subfamily.

In this paper we demonstrate that several theorems from [1] and [3] do not hold as they are stated. These are the theorems regarding forbidden subposet characterizations of certain classes of coverincomparability graphs. In this paper we correct a mistake in the main theorem of [1], reformulate the corresponding statements and present corrected proofs. We further characterize posets whose cover...

The paper describes a system that automatically detects themes in a textual corpus and characterizes them by sets of keywords, that is, words whose co-occurrence in a paragraph indicates that this paragraph tackles a certain theme. (Pichon and Sébillot, 2000) presents a first version of it where those sets are obtained with the help of the CHAVL hierarchical clustering algorithm, grouping words...

This paper proposes an emotion recognition system. Human emotion can be expressed through many kinds of medium such as speech, image, facial expression, and so forth. This paper focuses on the textual data of them. Proposed system is a hybrid system that uses alternatively two methods, keyword-based and machine learning method. Keyword-based methods are traditional approaches using emotional ke...

Infrared Functional Imaging was applied to the study of Raynaud’s Phenomenon obtaing a simultaneous assessment of the thermal properties of all five fingers of both hands of a group of patients with respect of a control group. The method is based on the use of high-resolution telethermography imaging and allows identification of objective parameters from the re-warming curves of finger immediat...

Let γ(G) and ι(G) be the domination and independent domination numbers of a graph G, respectively. Introduced by Sumner and Moorer [23], a graph G is domination perfect if γ(H) = ι(H) for every induced subgraph H ⊆ G. In 1991, Zverovich and Zverovich [26] proposed a characterization of domination perfect graphs in terms of forbidden induced subgraphs. Fulman [15] noticed that this characterizat...
