Probability Theory includes various theorems known as Laws of Large Numbers; for instance, see [Fel68, Hea71, Ros89]. Usually two major categories are distinguished: Weak Laws versus Strong Laws. Within these categories there are numerous subtle variants of differing generality. Also the Central Limit Theorems are often brought up in this context. Many introductory probability texts treat this ...

this paper presents the application of three main artificial neural networks (anns) in damage detection of steel bridges. this method has the ability to indicate damage in structural elements due to a localized change of stiffness called damage zone. the changes in structural response is used to identify the states of structural damage. to circumvent the difficulty arising from the non-linear n...

visualization of scientific maps enhances the awareness and general recognition of the scientific domains and their structures. it facilitates the study of the existing situation and planning of the future researches as well. the present study sought to discover and generate the scientific map of medicine in iran between 2003 and 2007. it also aimed to determine the most effective medical subje...

This paper addresses issues in automated treebank construction. We show how standard part-of-speech tagging techniques extend to the more general problem of structural annotation, especially for determining grammatical functions and syntactic categories. Annotation is viewed as an interactive process where manual and automatic processing alternate. Efficiency and accuracy results are presented....

Many of the definitions given below were adopted by the SCMR without difficulty; others gave rise to considerable debate. Problems arose for a variety of reasons, namely: the variable usage of terms across the geological community (e.g. gneiss and schist); terms such as slate and cleavage proved difficult because there are no similar terms in many non-English speaking countries; equally, the di...
