This paper introduces the industrial design of the social robot ‘Flobi’. In total, three key concepts influenced the industrial design: First, the robot head of Flobi appears as a cartoon-like character and has a ‘hole-free’ design without any visible conjunctions. Second, Flobi has dynamic features to display not only primary emotions, but also shame, a typical secondary emotion. Third, the st...

Verified intracranial deposits of Hodgkin's disease are rare. Thus there was only one among 125 cases reported by John and Nabarro (1955). In the monograph by Williams, Diamond, Craver, and Parsons (1959) there were four among 1,992 cases. Todd (1967) reported two among 1,339 cases. The deposits are usually subdural, intracerebral metastases being exceptional. This rarity contrasts with the inc...

How do reasoners understand and formulate denials of compound assertions, such as conjunctions and disjunctions? A theory based on mental models postulates that individuals enumerate models of the various possibilities consistent with the assertions. It therefore predicts a novel interaction: in affirmations, conjunctions, A and B, which refer to one possibility, should be easier to understand ...

in present research, four of qajar prose works were initially selected as following: nasekh al-tavarikh of muhammad taghi lesan al-molk sepehr, masalek al-mohsenin of ‘abd al-rahim tabrizi, majma’ al-fosaha of reza gholi khan hedayat, and hezar-o-yek shab translated by ‘abd al-latif tasuji tabrizi. their most important writing and editing errors such as verbs, plural signs, words and structures...

of time the influence of matter on life and mind will gradually become obliterated and replaced by the influence of mind and its transcendent successors in the great steps of creative evolution." Therefore, "the remote successors of man may be free and independent of matter with infinite possibilities of future progress notwithstanding the complete dissolution of the universe." Pure thought, th...

When presented with a red T and a green O, observers occasionally make conjunction responses and indicate that they saw a green T. These errors have been interpreted as reflecting separable processing stages of feature detection and integration with the illusory conjunctions arising from a failure at the integration stage. Recently, M. Donk (1999) asserted that the phenomenon of illusory conjun...

A new hypothesis about the role of focused attention is proposed. The feature-integration theory of attention suggests that attention must be directed serially to each stimulus in a display whenever conjunctions of more than one separable feature are needed to characterize or distinguish the possible objects presented. A number of predictions were tested in a variety of paradigms including visu...

Conjunctions have always been a source of problems for natural language parsers. This paper shows how these problems may be circumvented using a rule.based, walt-and-see parsing strategy. A parser is presented which analyzes conjunction structures deterministically, and the specific rules it uses are described and illustrated. This parser appears to be faster for conjunctions than other parsers...
