conservation of biodiversity in protected areas will be more challenging if local communities are heavily dependent on them for various products and subsistence needs. this study estimated forest dependency and identified factors influencing dependency for households living around kasane forest reserve (kfr). data collected from 237 households were analyzed using logistic regression model. logi...

We investigate learning dependency grammar from positive data, in Gold's identification in the limit model. Examples are dependency trees. For this, we introduce reversible lexical dependency grammars which generate a significant class of languages. We have demonstrated that reversible dependency languages are learnable. We provide a-time, in the example size, algorithm. Our objective is to con...

maintaining dignity and respect is among patients’ most fundamental rights. the importance of patient dignity, the status quo, patients’ needs, and a shortage of survey studies in this area were the underlying incentives for conducting this study. this was a cross-sectional descriptive study in which data were collected through patient dignity inventory (pdi). the questionnaire was completed by...

The Spoken Dutch Corpus assigns 1 million of its 9 million total words a syntactic annotation in the form of dependency graphs. We will look at strategies for automatically extracting a lexicon of type-logical supertags from these dependency graphs and investigate how different levels of lexical detail affect the size of the resulting lexicon as well as the performancewith respect to supertag d...

This study examined to study how respondents rely on the Internet to fulfill the various life goals dimensioned into understanding, orientation and playing goals, and how this dependency relates to the generation of social capital. Further, it examined the resources of social capital in terms of bonding social capita and bridging social capital. In this study quantitative research approach was ...

Predator-prey body size relationships influence food chain length, trophic structure, transfer efficiency, interaction strength, and the bioaccumulation of contaminants. Improved quantification of these relationships and their response to the environment is needed to parameterize food web models and describe food web structure and function. A compiled data set comprising 29582 records of indivi...

Nanomaterials have attracted considerable attention during the last two decades, due to their unusual electrical, mechanical and other physical properties as compared with their bulky counterparts. The mechanical properties of nanostructured materials show strong size dependency, which has been explained within the framework of continuum mechanics by including the effects of surface stress. The...
