In the natural-Ianguage-proce88ing re8earch community, the u8efulne88 of computer tool8 for te8ting lingui8tic analY8e8 i8 often taken for granted. LingUi8t8, on the other hand, have generally been unaware of or ambivalent about 8uch device8.

1.1 Markov Processes Consider a set of states S1, S2, . . . SN . A discrete Markov process is one in which the system is in a particular state at any given time. The state can be changed only at discrete intervals of time. We denote the time instants associated with state changes with as t = 1, 2, . . . and we denote the actual state at time t as qt. The current state in an n-order Markov proce...

A set is pair if: (Def.1) There exist sets x, y such that it = 〈x, y〉. Let us mention that every set which is pair is also non empty. Let x, y be sets. Observe that 〈x, y〉 is pair. Let us mention that there exists a set which is pair and there exists a set which is non pair. Let us observe that every natural number is non pair. A set has a pair if: (Def.2) There exists a pair set x such that x ...

Antimicrobials that are associated with QT prolongation include the. Torsades de pointes (TdP), a potentially fatal polymorphic ventricular. . are more susceptible to the effects of these small changes than are others [17, 18].. As a result of increased exposure to an IKr-blocking agent, risk of TdP may increase [ 26, 27].

In a previous study, we have found that the speed of stopping a response is delayed when response readiness is reduced by cuing the probability of no-go trials [Acta Psychol. 111 (2002) 155]. Other investigators observed that responses are more forceful when the probability to respond is low than when it is high (e.g. [Quart. J. Exp. Psychol. A 50 (1997) 405]). In this study, the hypothesis was...

Over the last 50 years industrial gas turbines have advanced significantly. Horsepower has increased 200 percent (and even higher) within the same envelope. Improvements in efficiencies and reliability (more operating time before overhauls) are being made more often. What took 15 years to change 30 years ago, now, in the last 15 years, happens in five years or less. There are constant demands f...

Europe is perceived to lag behind the US in converting its academic results into economic outcomes. Using new survey data and controlling for standard factors affecting the productivity of Technology Transfer Offices (TTOs), we find that European TTOs do not execute less licenses than US TTOs. However, they earn significantly less revenue from licenses. We relate the difference in licensing inc...
