Abstract It is proved that all sufficiently large integers n can be represented as n = x 1 2 + 3 ⋯ 13 14 , n=x_{1}^{2}+x_{2}^...

In academic writing, comparison and contrast is particularly valuable because it enables you to see familiar things in new ways. "Common sense" says that two things are the same, but a careful comparison and contrast demonstrates their important differences. That same common sense may say that two things are totally incompatible, but when you compare and contrast them systematically, you discov...

A new handwriting model is proposed for simulating complex handwriting variation in obedience to individual handwriting tendencies. Individual handwriting t,endency is represented as a set of deformation rules each of which deforms one structure of pen movements. Characters are represented as hierarchical descriptions of pen movements, so that deformation rules for various types of pen movement...

All writers produce text content and ideally connect it together according to discourse conventions. We investigate whether a particularly strong discourse convention, the need for causal coherence in narratives, can predict the kind of text writers will produce. Causality has been found to be a significant discourse factor in reading comprehension and hence can be expected to determine also wh...

Helpful dialog between a system and its user is critical to the usability of a piece of software. Without clear and precise feedback, many systems become inefficient and costly in terms of both time and money. Research papers have been published describing the way in which professional writers can be employed to improve the overall effectiveness of a system. This paper aims to summarise and rev...

This paper includes four main stream writers of Indian origin, Salman Rushdie, Rohinton Mistry, Jaisree Misra and Anita Desai who have effectively projected an Intellectually Disabled character into mainstream writing. Though many a reading has been done on these writers, one aspect of scrutiny that has been constantly overlooked is the politics of representation of the Intellectually Disabled ...

Scenarios, which constrain the behavior of agents, can be the interface between computer experts (agent system developers) and application designers (scenario writers), as well as the interface between scenario writers and agents. It raises a number of challenging issues to execute multi-agent scenarios: 1) How can scenario writers generate customized scenarios easily? 2) How can scenario write...
