Hansson (2007) demonstrated that, given an OT grammar with the constraint schemas CORRC↔C and IDENT-CC-x, factorial typology calls for grammars where certain segments are opaque to long-distance consonant assimilation (LDCA). That is, it is possible to rank CORR-C↔C and IDENT-CC-x constraints such that, for example, in a language with place harmony for sibilants, a voiced [z] will be transparen...

This paper derives lower & upper reliability bounds for the 2-dimensional consecutive k-out-of-n:F system (Salvia Lasher, 1990) with independent but not necessarily ident i d y distributed components. A Weibull limit theorem is proved for system time-tofailure for i.i.d. components.

Novelty detection is the ident ification of new or unknown data or signal that a machine learning system is not aware of during training. In this paper we focus on neural network based approaches for novelty detection. Statistical approaches are covered in part-I paper.

The results of a series of experiments conducted to determine the performance of a microwave power receiving arrav are detailed. Over 30 kW of dc outwut Dower has been achieved. The ratio of dc out~ut Dower to availa%le in; ident RF input power has exceeded 018. ‘ The array performance-readily scales from ;he extrapolate d single element performance.

Enzyme profiling was investigated as a means of recognizing biotypes and individual strains of Ajellomyces dermatitidis (anamorph, Blastomyces dermatitidis). Eighteen North American and 2 African representatives were tested with the Yeast-IDENT enzymatic activity profiling system (Analytab Products, Plainview, N.Y.). Significant variation was found between isolates, particularly in beta-galacto...

One hundred reference strains and 1,240 clinical isolates representing 26 species of the family Micrococcaceae were used to evaluate the potential of tests for synergistic hemolysis, adherence to glass, pyroglutamyl-beta-naphthylamide hydrolysis, and susceptibility to a set of five antimicrobial agents for differentiating these species and strains within the species. Sixty-eight percent of the ...

Guarenteeing the timeliness of a parallel hard realtime system requires knon+dge of its commrinication behaviour. Analysis of the communication structure call identib potential livelock and deadlock in parallel systems. An approach n’hich describes the communications of parallel systems. called a client-server behaviorrr graph, is given which enables a Petri net model of a complete system to be...
