This study investigates the reanalysis processes as a consequence of conflict between incompatible sentential representations in sentence comprehension. Using the event-related potential (ERP) technique, we examined the situation in which the sentential representation built upon world knowledge (i.e., the plausibility heuristic) conflicts with the one built upon syntactic rules (i.e., the synta...

there are several conflicting evidences showing the effect of morphine on learning and memory processes. in the present study the effect of chronic morphine administration on passive avoidance, active avoidance and spatial learning and memory of morphine dependent male rats using passive avoidance shuttle box and morris water maze tasks were investigated, respectively. male rats received morphi...

Tactile perception is inhibited during movement execution, a phenomenon known as tactile suppression. Here, we investigated whether the type of movement determines whether or not this form of sensory suppression occurs. Participants performed simple reaching or exploratory movements. Tactile discrimination thresholds were calculated for vibratory stimuli delivered to participants' wrists while ...

extract: physical mobility and exercise are necessary for people health. for patient with mobility limitation this issue has more importance because these exercises help them to return to normal function more effectively. since the individual planning for each patient is not time effective, so we could plan group exercises and perform properly in orthopedic wards. the important goals of this pl...

Production of actions is highly dependent on concurrent sensory information. In speech production, for example, movement of the articulators is guided by both auditory and somatosensory input. It has been demonstrated in non-human primates that self-produced vocalizations and those of others are differentially processed in the temporal cortex. The aim of the current study was to investigate how...

tip leakage loss introduces major part of losses of the rotor in axial gas turbines. therefore, the rotor blade tip has a considerable effect on rotor efficiency. to understand the flow physics of the rotor tip leakage, we solve the flow field for different tip platforms (passive flow control) and by considering coolant tip injection (active flow control). various blade tip configurations such ...

A modular, recurrent connectionist network is taught to incrementally parse complex sentences. From input presented one word at a time, the network learns to do semantic role assignment, noun phrase attachment, and clause structure recognition, for sentences with both active and passive constructions and center-embedded clauses. The network makes syntactic and semantic predictions at every step...

We are experimenting to examine how AnglaBharati system designed to translate English to Indian languages could be adapted for translation to Sanskrit. The main contribution of our work is demonstration of machine translation of English to Sanskrit for simple sentences based on PLIL generated by AnglaBharati and Ashtadhyayi rules. Presently our translation system caters to affirmative, negative...

Mindfulness as a clinical and nonclinical intervention for a variety of symptoms has recently received a substantial amount of interest. Although the application of mindfulness appears straightforward and its effectiveness is well supported, the concept may easily be misunderstood. This misunderstanding may severely limit the benefit of mindfulness-based interventions. It is therefore necessary...
