An attribute grammar is pure (left-to-right) multi-pass if a bounded number of left-to-right passes over the derivation tree suffice to compute all its attributes. There is no requirement, as for the usual multi-pass attribute grammars, that all occurrences of the same attribute are computed in the same pass, R is shown that the problem of determining whether an arbitrary attribute grammar is p...

The standard view of superlatives treats them as a subkind of adjectives. However, in many languages, superlatives require the presence of a determiner, even in the predicate position. This leads to an apparent contradiction, since it is independently known that determiners syntactically combine with extended NP projections and are excluded with APs. This issue is resolved if superlative adject...

In this paper we construct three primitive mappings based on three kinds of genetic attribute equivalences. We then apply the mappings and basic addition operation to the universal genetic code to generate three square matrices. We show that these square matrices are stochastic in nature. They demonstrate some fractal similarity properties and resemble the similar properties to the original sto...

OBJECTIVE Advanced life support (ALS) knowledge and skills decrease in as little as three months, but only a few ALS providers actually attend retraining courses. We assess the effectiveness of a 3D serious game as a new tool for frequent ALS retraining. METHODS We developed a 3D serious game for scenario-based ALS retraining. The serious game, called EMSAVE, was designed to promote self-corr...

allamah tabatabai interprets the doctrine of attributive monotheism of god under the philosophical theory of the identity of god’s perfection attributes with his essence. because, in his view point, it is the only rational way for explanation of attributive monotheism. according to this theory, all divine perfection attributes are identical with each other and with god’s nature in external worl...

Connectionist modeling is applied to issues in cognitive rehabilitation, concerning the degree and speed of recovery through retraining, the extent of generalization to untreated items, and how treated items are selected to maximize this generalization. A network previously used to model impairments in mapping orthography to semantics is retrained after damage. The degree of relearning and gene...

This study was to investigate the effects of cervical stabilizing exercise and breathing retraining exercise to improve the respiratory function in elderly stroke patients. Experimental 1group performed cervical stabilizing exercise and respiratory breathing retraining exercise for 30minutes in addition to the conventional exercise. Experimental 2group performed the respiratory breathing retrai...

This paper presents an extension of classical attributive logic using atomic values of attributes. In the proposed logic set values are allowed and various relational symbols are used to form atomic formulae. The proposed language provides a concise and elegant tool for design, implementation and verification of rule-based systems.

PURPOSE Dysfunctional breathing (DB) is associated with an abnormal breathing pattern, unexplained breathlessness and significant patient morbidity. Treatment involves breathing retraining through respiratory physiotherapy. Recently, manual therapy (MT) has also been used, but no evidence exists to validate its use. This study sought to investigate whether MT produces additional benefit when co...
