This paper describes LHIP (Left-Head corner Island Parser), a parser designed for broadcoverage handling of unrestricted text. The system interprets an extended DCG formalism to produce a robust analyser that nds parses of the input made from \islands" of terminals (corresponding to terminals consumed by successful grammar rules). It is currently in use for processing dialogue transcripts from ...

About the Author Chris Reed was born a kiwi to English parents in Auckland in 1947. He attended Dilworth School from 1956 to 1964 where his interest in chemistry was undoubtedly stimulated by being entrusted with a key to the high school chemical stockroom. Nighttime experiments with white phosphorus led to the Headmaster administering six of the best. He obtained his BSc (1967), MSc (1st Class...

A new, modified "picket fence" porphyrin is synthesized and its bis(imidazole)-ligated iron(ii) derivative [Fe(MbenTpivPP)(1-MeIm)(2)] is investigated. X-ray structure determinations demonstrate that [Fe(MbenTpivPP)(1-MeIm)(2)] has structural features of a near planar porphyrin plane, a relative perpendicular ligand orientation, and one unusually large absolute ligand orientation (φ). The combi...

Abstract We found the inner electromagnetic structure of subauroral ion drifts (SAID) in SAID‐STEVE events documented by Swarm spacecraft and numerically simulated ionospheric feedback instability (IFI) development for one four similar events. Good quantitative agreement modeling results with observed features shows that mechanism captures their basic underlying physics. Simulations require non...

Diffusion of a G-protein coupled receptor, mu-opioid receptor (muOR), in the plasma membrane was tracked by single-fluorescent molecule video imaging and high-speed single-particle tracking. At variance with a previous publication, where gold-tagged muOR was found to be totally confined within a domain, which in turn underwent very slow diffusion itself, we found that muOR undergoes rapid hop d...

Desmotersia levinae gen. n., sp. n. is proposed, based on material found in bathyal oxygen minimum zone sediments off the coast of Peru. Desmotersia closely resembles Richtersia in the animals’ general appearance and in spiny ornamentation of the body cuticle, but clearly differs in stoma structure and by the presence of a dorsal tooth. The systematic positions of the two genera are discussed, ...

The status of different extensions the Random Phase Approximation (RPA) is reviewed. general framework given within Equation Motion Method and equivalent Green's function approach for so-called Self-Consistent RPA (SCRPA). role Pauli principle analyzed. A comparison among various approaches to include correlations, in particular, renormalized (r-RPA), performed. thermodynamic properties nuclear...

This paper examines the problem of estimating surjiace shape from texture in situations in which there are multiple textures present due to texture discontinuities, occlusion, and pseudo-trarzspareizcy (fbr example looking through a picket fence ut u textured s u @ ~ e ) . Previous shupe-ji-om-texture methods that use changes in the spatial jrequency representution ofneighboring image patches u...

We propose a variant of the algorithm by [R. Simson, E. D. Sheets, and K. Jacobson, Biophys. 69, 989 (1995)]. Their algorithm was developed to detect transient confinement zones in experimental single-particle tracking trajectories of diffusing membrane proteins or lipids. We show that our algorithm is able to detect confinement in a wider class of confining potential shapes than that of Simson...

We consider the level statistics of two-dimensional harmonic oscillators with incommensurable frequencies, which are known to have picket-fence type spectra. We propose a parametric representation for the level-spacing distribution and level-number variance, and study the variation of the parameters with the frequency ratio and the size of the spectra. By introducing an anharmonic perturbation,...
