When monitoring a system wrt. a property defined in a temporal logic such as LTL, a major concern is to settle with an adequate interpretation of observable system events; that is, models of temporal logic formulae are usually infinite words of events, whereas at runtime only finite but incrementally expanding prefixes are available. In this work, we review LTL-derived logics for finite traces ...

A heuristic method to find asymptotic solutions a system of non-linear wave equations near null infinity is proposed. The non-linearities in this model, dubbed good-bad-ugly, are known mimic the ones present Einstein field (EFE) and we expect be able exploit derive an expansion for metric General Relativity (GR) close that goes beyond first order as performed by Lindblad Rodnianski leading asym...

Using data from three waves of Add Health we find that, consistent with theoretical expectations, being very attractive reduces a young adult’s (ages 18-26) propensity for criminal activity and being unattractive increases it. A variety of tests suggest that this result is not likely because beauty is acting as a proxy for socioeconomic status, although we cannot rule out the possibility that s...

In order to obtain an understanding of the user’s emotion in human-machine dialogues, an analysis of dialogical utterances in the real world was performed. This work comprises three major steps. (1) The actual conditions of 16 basic emotions were evaluated using Japanese child voices, which were collected through the field test of the public spoken dialogue system. (2) Two factors were derived ...
