A COMPUTER-BASED ARTICULATION TRAINING AID FOR SHORT WORDS (CATA) Mukund Devarajan Old Dominion University, 2003 Director: Dr. Stephen A. Zahorian Several improvements in the vowel articulation training aid (VATA) are described, as well as the efforts to extend the visual feedback system to operate with short words in the form of consonant, vowel and consonant (CVC). The extended version of the...

During the past few years, many publications about computer applications in the field of drawing, classification and analysis of archaeological pottery have been presented at various congresses by various researchers. This paper will review and analyze the most relevant works published so far. It focuses on computer applications oriented towards the graphical visualization and analysis of data ...

Histoplasma capsulatum produces an extracellular catalase termed M antigen, which is similar to catalase B of Aspergillus and Emericella species. Evidence is presented here for two additional catalase isozymes in H. capsulatum. Catalase A is highly similar to a large-subunit catalase in Aspergillus and Emericella species, while catalase P is a small-subunit catalase protein with greatest simila...

Free-Comment (FC), as a response to open-ended questions, enables word-based sensory description and discrimination of sets products. The stability FC outputs has never been investigated is the purpose present paper. Since Check-All-That-Apply (CATA) most popular method for products with consumers, was compared that CATA performed on same Four red wines four milk chocolates were evaluated accor...

Pyomelanin is the major constituent of pigment in melanogenic Aeromonas strains of bacteria. However, eumelanin, synthesized from tyrosine via L-DOPA and polyphenol oxidases (PPOs), may also be present in this genus since L-DOPA is frequently detected in culture fluids of several species. To address this question, we used a deletion mutant of Aeromonas media strain WS, in which pyomelanin synth...

Catalan's formula, for the portion of the inheritance that a legitimate child of a 19th-century deceased French gentleman should receive, is given a new proof (using Difference Operators), and generalized. Another, more computationally efficient, formula is also derived. Catalan's Formula Chrystal's classical text[Ch] (II, p. 416) contains the following charming exercise, due to Cata-lan[Ca]. B...

The present work seeks to understand the use of cosmetic creams and perception natural eco-friendly products by women explore impacts their personal characteristics. study was designed using two approaches: (i) an investigation into role characteristics on frequency amount spent creams; (ii) understanding check-all-that-apply (CATA) questions. Results showed that scholarity has a strong influen...

Cycloaddition reactions of tetrakis(hexyloxy)-substituted 2,3-triphenylyne (2,3-didehydrotriphenylene) provide straightforward access to three new cata-condensed polyarenes characterized by the presence of 5, 8 and 11 fused benzene rings.

A total of n = 67 untrained attendants at an outreach science festival, online because the COVID-19 pandemic but usually held bars, used pictures brand logos to evaluate eight beers among most commonly consumed in Spain. Projective mapping, acceptability and check-all-that-apply (CATA) were used, all cases leading a clear picture consumers' opinion. For projective mapping panel provided four gr...
