This paper introduces an ongoing work on developing verb frames for Hindi. Verb frames capture syntactic commonalities of semantically related verbs. The main objective of this work is to create a linguistic resource which will prove to be indispensable for various NLP applications. We also hope this resource to help us better understand Hindi verbs. We motivate the basic verb argument structur...

This short paper presents an hyperstability theorem for hybrid dynamic systems composed of coupled differential and difference equations subject to time varying nonlinearities satisfying a Popov ' s type inequality . Some corollaries and related physical interpretations are also given.

The hypergeometric function is shown to be logarithmically concave in integer values of one of its parameters. The methods used are probabilistic. THEOREM. Let m, and g be positive integers satisfying 3 <=i + <_ g, and let z be a negative real number. Then {2Fl[-m,i’g’z]} 2 > 2Fl[-m,i + 1;g;Z]EFl[-m,i1;g;z]. We first establish the following lemma concerning the evaluation of the generating func...

OuIang inequalities and their generalizations have proved to be useful tools in oscillation theory, boundedness theory, stability theory, and other applications of differential and difference equations. A nice introduction to continuous and discrete OuIang inequalities can be found in 1, 2 , and studies in 3–5 give some of their generalizations to multiple integrals and higher-dimensional space...

In an effort to understand why individuals choose to participate in personally-expensive pro-environmentalbehaviors, environmental and behavioral economists have examined a moral-motivation model in whichthe decision to adopt a pro-environmental behavior depends on the society-wide market share of thatbehavior. An increasing body of practical research on adoption of pro-environm...

We present a version of Opial’s inequality for time scales and point out some of its applications to so-called dynamic equations. Such dynamic equations contain both differential equations and difference equations as special cases. Various extensions of our inequality are offered as well.

With the emergence of social networks such as micro-blogging services like Twitter, the expert finding has become an interesting topic. However, previous methods cannot be directly used to learn about topic experts in Twitter. Some of the new methods employ the relations among users and Twitter lists for expert finding. A probabilistic method has been developed to explore the relations (i.e. fo...

abstract:migration is one of the main factors in regional development and social and demography policymakers pay attention to it. this phenomenon has different functions. the amount of satisfaction on dissatisfaction from migration process can be a sign of positive or negative function for migrants. the goal of this research is to survey the relation between social capital and satisfaction from...
