Abstract Extraction of a PP from an NP in German is possible only if the head noun and governing verb together form natural predicate. We show that this corresponds to collocational frequency verb-noun combinations corpora, based on metric Δ P . From we conclude should be conceived as language-external grammatical building block can directly interact with language-internal blocks (like triggers...

The present study investigates whether tones in tone languages constrain or control Intrinsic Fundamental Frequency (IF0), similar to the investigation conducted by Hombert (1977) and Connell (2002). Two native speakers of Yorùbá were recorded producing seven vowels language with all three tones. Results analysis show that IF0 is found be a gradient respect tones; High possesses higher F0 than ...

We analyze a frequency decrease as well as a frequency transition with a temperature increase in the Hodgkin-Huxley (HH) oscillator undergoing saddle homoclinic bifurcations. A gradient of frequency for temperature is derived by perturbation analysis of the stable HH oscillators, in combination with the other gradient of frequency for input current and a so-called phase response curve (PRC) mul...

Primary sensory cortical areas are characterized by orderly and largely independent representations of several receptive field properties. This is expressed in multiple, spatially overlaying parameter distributions, such as orientation preference, spatial frequency, and ocular dominance maps in the primary visual cortex. In the auditory cortex, two main and presumably independent representation...

the present study was conducted in the rangeland of glandrood watershed in the province of mazandaran. the objective of this study was to compare between the ecological amplitude of festuca ovina l., and poa bulbosa l., using the function hof along the gradient of the environmental variables. for this purpose 150 plots of 1m2 were established along the altitude gradient. the sampling method was...
