The recent rapid spread of the Internet suggests that soon everybody on earth will be able to communicate freely with each other across national borders. The 21 century will be the age of multilingualism and multiculturalism, when various languages and cultures are dynamically exchanged on a global scale. One may call it the New Great Age of Translation. In such an age, Machine Translation (MT)...

 “In this paper, I will be concentrating..” o To me this seems a bit too formal, I would suggest replacing “I” with just “This paper will concentrate/focus on..” o Same with “At the end, I will also be presenting”  “Graphical authentication contain images as a replacement to alphanumeric and special characters, which are easier to remember” o contain  contains o It is unclear as to where the...

An automatic design platform capable of automatic structural analysis, structural synthesis and the application of parallel mechanisms will be a great aid in the conceptual design of mechanisms, though up to now such a platform has only existed as an idea. The work in this paper constitutes part of such a platform. Based on the screw theory and a new structural repr...

This paper presents a neural design which is able to provide the necessary reactive navigation and attention skills for 3D embodied agents (virtual humanoids or characters). Based on Grossberg’s neural model of conditioning [6], as recently implemented by Chang and Gaudiando [7], and according to the Adaptative Resonance Theory (ART) and the neuroscientific concepts associated, the neural desig...

This article is about the method of the display of Chinese and English Characaters in the programming environment of Carbide.c++. Development of this method is based on Symbian Series 60 platform and OpenGL ES. Both Chinese characters and English characters can be displayed in 3D scene. The methodology and arithmetic are presented in the article. This method has been successfully applied to the...

UALITATIVE characters can, by definition, be readily separated into pheno-Q typic classes having a correspondence with genotypic classes. However, in assessing the continuous variability of quantitative characters, class boundaries must be arbitrary, bearing no ascertainable correspondence with genotypic classes. This obscuration of class boundaries of quantitative characters stems from small e...

This chapter proposes an intelligent tutoring system (ITS) for teaching students to write Chinese characters over the Internet. Since each Chinese character is like a picture, knowing the correct stroke orders can enable a person to write characters more easily. Accordingly, primary schools in Taiwan teach the correct orders in which strokes should be made when writing Chinese characters. In th...

This study investigates how Seoul Korean-speaking children and adults use pitchand duration-related phonetic cues to mark focus. It was found that to distinguish focus from non-focus, the adults used both the pitchand duration-related cues, but the children used only the duration-related cues to distinguish focus from post-focus. Further, neither the adults nor the children distinguish narrow f...

This paper deals with an aspectual classification of Korean and Japanese verbs based on Vendler (1967). Both of Korean and Japanese verbs are classified into 12 distinctive aspectual categories by their restrictions on time adverbials, progressive tenses and logical entailments. A well-established aspectual verb classes provide us not only with a better understanding of both languages, but also...
