Aspectual distinctions in Sk̲wx̲wú7mesh
Creators: name: Bar-El, Leora Anne
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The classification of predicates according to their aspectual properties has a long history, dating back to Aristotle. Perhaps the most influential classification can be attributed to Vendler (1967). The time schemata to distinguish his four classes relies on a combination of entailment patterns and behaviours of "verbs" in different structures. Since Vendler, many researchers have revisited this classification, differing on both the proposed number of classes as well as the ways in which they are derived. Although they use different diagnostics to motivate their systems, what these approaches seem to share in common is the claim that aspectual classes are universal. This thesis addresses this claim and proposes that based on data from Skwxwu7mesh (a.k.a. Squamish), the representations of predicates vary crosslinguistically. I argue for a classification based on the presence/absence of intrinsic initial and final points in predicate representations. Chapters Two and Three are concerned with final points and initial points, respectively. I present four diagnostics which I argue test for the presence of final points and two diagnostics that test for the presence of initial points. Based on the results of these tests, I propose a modification of Rothstein's (2004) predicate templates (that in turn are a modification of Dowty's 1979 templates) to account for the classification of Skwxwu7mesh predicate classes that emerges. Chapters Four and Five are concerned with perfectivity and imperfectivity, respectively. In these chapters, I motivate the claim that Skwxwu7mesh has both a progressive marker and an imperfective marker. I propose that adopting Dowty's (1979) analysis of the progressive and Kratzer's (1998) analysis of the imperfective, along with the predicate representations introduced in chapters two and three, can derive the readings of progressive and imperfective predicates in Skwxwu7mesh. Based on a small study involving 10 native speakers of English who are not linguists, in Chapter Six I briefly revisit English aspectual classes. Using the results of some of the diagnostics from chapters two and three, I show the contrast between English and Skwxwu7mesh predicate representations, highlighting the claim that aspectual classes do indeed vary cross-linguistically.

description: Although the world market seems to be expanding, with an in-creasing participation of the Asian East, mainly of China, it is still subject to much debate related to the use of genetic modiﬁed varieties, to commer-cial disputes within WTO due to agriculture protection, and to effects of ALCA’s establishment, joining the three main exporters. In the short run, emphasis was given to the last two American agricultural bills which raised their subsidies to their soybean producers and the adoption by Brazil and by Argentine, in 1999 and 2002, respectively, of ﬂoating exchange systems, with drastic currency devaluation. The effects of the recent political changes are analyzed using a general equilibrium model. The conclusions indicate that currency devaluation in Brazil and Argentine more than compensated the increase in the American subsidies to its soybean producers, Brazil being mostly beneﬁted; For Brazil, particularly, the world market expansion appears promising, since its the only exporter with the possibility of largely increasing its production and it has competitive costs.

description: It is not uncommon to consider deoxyribonucleic acid, most commonly called DNA, as the expression of the genesis and mutation of living species. This molecule is composed of a double helix that carries genetic instructions for all known organisms and several viruses. However, in the Molecular Age, this metaphoric landmark is moved and stretched as we discover and study new structures that impact the genome. Important work is done nowadays in order to understand the consequences and causal relations that intertwine this language and the environment, in many fields such as genetic engineering, bioinformatics and genomic medicine. By giving new access to the architecture that constitutes living beings, technological artefacts and activities translate into a biological shift that opened our lives to new susceptibilities and risks, but also new rationalities and values revolving around DNA. All those technological discoveries inevitably led to a new framework in the Information Society; the Molecular Age. This paper focuses on the new agencies that are constituted in our Molecular Age. From the technology and researches revolving around DNA emerge specific modalities of action in our biosociality. Since genomic-related technologies and researches have constituted DNA as a meaningful structure of signs and symbols we are confronted with the traditional view according to which genomics is the new determinism of the 21st century. On the contrary, however, this paper shows the constitution of new forms of active empowerment based on DNA-related issues and researches. Thereby biological agencies and subjectivities arise from the constitution of a genetic biosociality that provides biocitizens and biocommunities with a discursive, ethical and technical self-understanding, and enables them to gather around the technological and informational meanings that this new knowledge has opened.

description: We propose the sparse modeling method to estimate the spectral function from the smeared correlation functions. We give a description of how to obtain the shear viscosity from the correlation function of the renormalized energy-momentum tensor (EMT) measured by the gradient flow method ($C(t,τ)$) for the quenched QCD at finite temperature. The measurement of the renormalized EMT in the gradient flow method reduces a statistical uncertainty thanks to its property of the smearing. However, the smearing breaks the sum rule of the spectral function and the over-smeared data in the correlation function may have to be eliminated from the analyzing process of physical observables. In this work, we demonstrate that the sparse modeling analysis in the intermediate-representation basis (IR basis), which connects between the Matsubara frequency data and real frequency data. It works well even using very limited data of $C(t,τ)$ only in the fiducial window of the gradient flow. We utilize the ADMM algorithm which is useful to solve the LASSO problem under some constraints. We show that the obtained spectral function reproduces the input smeared correlation function at finite flow-time. Several systematic and statistical errors and the flow-time dependence are also discussed.

description: La Directiva Marco de Aguas, aprobada en el año 2000, obliga a todos los Estados miembros de la Unión Europea a introducir una política de precios del agua. Por ello se prevé que los subvencionados cánones y tarifas de riego pagados actualmente por superficie regada cambien por tarifas volumétricas mucho más elevadas. En este sentido, el objetivo del presente trabajo consiste en desarrollar una metodología que permita analizar el impacto que tendría una política de precios del agua de riego sobre la demanda de tecnologías ahorradoras de agua. Para ello se utilizan modelos de programación matemática basados en la Teoría de la Utilidad Multiatributo. Esta metodología se aplica de forma piloto en una zona regable de Castilla y León. Los resultados ponen de manifiesto la disparidad de la disposición a pagar por nuevas tecnologías de riego entre los diferentes tipos de agricultores, siendo menor a medida que presentan un perfil más conservador (menor ponderación del objetivo de maximización del beneficio)...European water policy, as set out in the Water Framework Directive (WFD), requires all EU Member States to implement volumetric water pricing at rates that roughly cover the total costs of providing water services. The objective of this paper is to develop a methodology that, for the different farm-types in an irrigable area, will enable us to analyse the differential impact that a pricing policy for irrigation water would have on the demand of new irrigation technologies. For this purpose, Multi-Attribute Utility Theory (MAUT) mathematical programming models have been used. The methodology is implemented on a representative area in the Duero Valley in Spain. Our results show the usefulness of differential analysis in evaluating the impact of a water pricing policy. This allows significant differences in the willingness to pay for new irrigation technologies in the various groups of farmers, being smaller as they present a more conservative profile (smaller weighting of profit maximization objective).

description: We derive for Ising spins an off-equilibrium generalization of the fluctuation dissipation theorem, which is formally identical to the one previously obtained for soft spins with Langevin dynamics [L.F.Cugliandolo, J.Kurchan and G.Parisi, J.Phys.I France \textbf{4}, 1641 (1994)]. The result is quite general and holds both for dynamics with conserved and non conserved order parameter. On the basis of this fluctuation dissipation relation, we construct an efficient numerical algorithm for the computation of the linear response function without imposing the perturbing field, which is alternative to those of Chatelain [J.Phys. A \textbf{36}, 10739 (2003)] and Ricci-Tersenghi [Phys.Rev.E {\bf 68}, 065104(R) (2003)]. As applications of the new algorithm, we present very accurate data for the linear response function of the Ising chain, with conserved and non conserved order parameter dynamics, finding that in both cases the structure is the same with a very simple physical interpretation. We also compute the integrated response function of the two dimensional Ising model, confirming that it obeys scaling $χ(t,t_w)\simeq t_w^{-a}f(t/t_w)$, with $a =0.26\pm 0.01$, as previously found with a different method.

description: En la provincia de Almería se sitúa uno de los principales centros productores de hortalizas fuera de temporada de Europa. El crecimiento experimentado por esta actividad agraria en las últimas décadas ha venido acompañado del desarrollo simultáneo de una moderna estructura comercial. Sus empresas se enfrentan a mercados cada vez más competitivos y concentrados, siendo imprescindibles continuas mejoras en sus niveles de eficiencia. Tras una breve caracterización del sector, en este trabajo se aborda el análisis del nivel de eficiencia de las empresas de comercialización y manipulación de hortalizas almerienses, contrastándose su relación con determinadas características empresariales. Para ello se aplica la metodología del Análisis Envolvente de Datos, con la que se comprueba que este sector productivo posee una alta eficiencia técnica pura, pero opera en la zona de rendimientos crecientes a escala, con un sobresimensionamiento en algunos de los factores productivos que emplea. Estos y otros resultados llevan a plantear algunas estrategias a implementar en el sector, orientadas a paliar la escasa dimensión de muchos de sus agentes y a reducir los niveles de ineficiencias que presentan los mismos...In the province of Almería is located one of the most important centers of production of out of season vegetables in Europe. The commercial activity of this sector has undergone a notable increase and a modern commercial structure has arisen simultaneously. The firms in this sector have to face markets of increasing competitiveness and concentration, being indispensable continuous improvements in the levels of all their agents’ efficiency. After a brief characterization of the sector, in this study we approach an analysis of the efficiency of the firms marketing and handling produce from Almería, studying its relationship with certain characteristics of the firms. For it is applied it Data Envelopment Analysis is used, with which it points out that this productive sector possesses a high pure technical efficiency, but it works at the zone of economies of scale, with over-sizing in some of the its productive factors. These and other results take to outline some strategies to implement in the sector, guided to palliate the scarce dimension of many of their agents and to reduce their levels of inefficiency.

description: The possibility of night-time power generation has recently stimulated interest in using the radiative sky cooling mechanism with thermoelectric generators (TEG). These passive, low-temperature difference devices have been shown to generate electricity at night with no active input of heat needed, instead using the ambient air itself as the heat source. Here, we optimize both the geometry and operating conditions of radiative cooling driven thermoelectric (RC-TE) generators. We determine the optimal operating conditions, including maximum power point and maximum efficiency point, by developing a combined thermal and electrical model. Our results show that the optimal operating condition results in larger power output than was previously expected. Moreover, we show that maximum power density occurs when the area ratio between cooler and P or N element reaches an optimal value. Finally, we perform a parametric study that takes account of environmental and structural parameters to improve the performance of the RC-TE device, including enhancing heat transfer between the hot surface and ambient air, suppressing the cooling loss of the radiative cooler, and optimizing the geometry of individual thermocouples. Our work identifies how to maximize the output of RC-TE devices and provides comprehensive guidance on making use of this new passive power generation method.

description: The paper explores the relationship between technology and semiosis from the perspective of natural language processing, i.e. signs systems automated learning by deep neural networks. Two theoretical approaches to the artificial intelligence problem are compared: the internalist paradigm, which conceives the link between cognition and language as extrinsic, and the externalist paradigm, which understands cognitive human activity as constitutively linguistic. The basic assumptions of internalism are widely discussed. After witnessing its incompatibility with neural network implementations of verbal thinking, the paper goes on exploring the externalist paradigm and its consistency with neural network language modeling. After a thorough illustration of the Saussurian conception of the mechanism of language systems, and some insights into the functioning of verbal thinking according to Vygotsky, the externalist paradigm is established as the best verbal thinking representation to be implemented on deep neural networks. Afterwards, the functioning of deep neural networks for language modeling is illustrated. Firstly, a basic explanation of the multilayer perceptron is provided, then, the Word2Vec model is introduced, and finally the Transformer model, the current the state-of-the-art architecture for natural language processing, is illustrated. The consistency between the externalist representation of language systems and the vector representation employed by the transformer model, prove that only the externalist approach can provide an answer to the problem of modeling and replicating human cognition.

description: We study the dynamics of topological defects of a frustrated spin system displaying spiral order. As a starting point we consider the SO(3) nonlinear sigma model to describe long-wavelength fluctuations around the noncollinear spiral state. Besides the usual spin-wave magnetic excitations, the model allows for topologically non-trivial static solutions of the equations of motion, associated with the change of chirality (clockwise or counterclockwise) of the spiral. We consider two types of these topological defects, single vortices and vortex-antivortex pairs, and quantize the corresponding solutions by generalizing the semiclassical approach to a non-Abelian field theory. The use of the collective coordinates allows us to represent the defect as a particle coupled to a bath of harmonic oscillators, which can be integrated out employing the Feynman-Vernon path-integral formalism. The resulting effective action for the defect indicates that its motion is damped due to the scattering by the magnons. We derive a general expression for the damping coefficient of the defect, and evaluate its temperature dependence in both cases, for a single vortex and for a vortex-antivortex pair. Finally, we consider an application of the model for cuprates, where a spiral state has been argued to be realized in the spin-glass regime. By assuming that the defect motion contributes to the dissipative dynamics of the charges, we can compare our results with the measured inverse mobility in a wide range of temperature. The relatively good agreement between our calculations and the experiments confirms the possible relevance of an incommensurate spiral order for lightly doped cuprates.

As such, technology is a fundamental capability of humans. Understanding by means of technology is a projective reconstruction of the meanings of signs, that is  active, dynamic, objectifying interpretation. It is demonstrated how the contributions to this special issue implement comprehension of grammatical, linguistic and mathematical, artistic, legal and anthropological procedures of comprehension in the field of technical knowledge and technical implementation.

description: El objetivo de este trabajo es estudiar econométricamente las relaciones agregadas entre disponibilidades hídricas y producción de regadío, haciendo uso de datos correspondientes a la Región de Murcia. Se cuantifican las elasticidades a corto y largo plazo que relacionan estas variables, se descomponen los efectos de las oscilaciones hídricas entre un impacto sobre la superficie regada y otro de ésta sobre la producción, y se estudian y comparan los efectos diferenciales sobre el VAB y sobre la Producción Final agrícolas. Las estimaciones de los parámetros a largo plazo indican que una elasticidad unitaria del VAB agrícola con respecto a las aportaciones hídricas para regadío –tal como a veces se ha supuesto en el análisis coste-beneficio de nuevas infraestructuras hidráulicas– puede constituir una aproximación aceptable en esta región, aunque apuntan también la existencia de margen para mejorar la eficiencia en la asignación de los recursos hídricos existentes...Water availability is subject to large fluctuations in Murcia, which is a major producing region within the Spanish irrigated agriculture. These fluctuations allow us to estimate the short and long run elasticities between aggregate agricultural production and available water resources for irrigated agriculture. As an intermediate step, we estimate the elasticity of agricultural output with respect to available water resources conditional on the area of irrigated land, and the lagged response of this area to persistent shortages of water. We obtain that the long run elasticity of agricultural production with respect to aggregate water availability is close to one in this region (which is the figure sometimes assumed in the costbenefit analysis of new agricultural infrastructures). Since in the region productivity is very heterogeneous across farms, this result also suggests a rather inefficient allocation of the existing water resources.

description: In this work we discuss two methods of calculation of quark propagation in the quark-gluon plasma. Both methods make use of the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. The essential difference of these calculations is the treatment of deconfinement. A model of confinement is not included in the work of Gastineau, Blanquier and Aichelin [hep-ph/0404207], however, the meson states they consider are still bound for temperatures greater than the deconfinement temperature T_c. On the other hand, our model deals with unconfined quarks and includes a description of the q(bar)q resonances found in lattice QCD studies that make use of the maximum entropy method (MEM). We compare the q{bar)q cross sections calculated in these models.

description: Many researchers of human behavior lack empirical data in the form of descriptions of actually observed behaviors and their generalizations. Fictional narratives could be used as a source of empirical descriptive data, and their analysis naturally results in the formulation of some "grammar of behavior." The purpose of this paper is to explore the possibility to use the notion of behavioral grammar in a strict scientific sense. Since the notion of grammar comes from linguistics, the article starts by comparing different linguistic approaches to the understanding of grammar. Then it explores how the concept of grammar is used outside of linguistics, in notions of "grammar of behavior," "grammar of society," and "grammar of culture." Any linguistic grammar explicitly or implicitly contains theoretical ideas about what language is in general, offers some typology of language elements, and some rules which can be conceptualized rather differently (prescriptions and proscriptions, distributions, algorithms, schemes, templates). A grammar of behavior also presupposes a certain theoretical view of behavior: how it is generated, where its forms come from, how they are assimilated and chosen, etc. However, not every theory of behavior can be understood as grammar. A grammar of behavior is that part of a theory that describes behavior, explains it by formulating rules, by specifying what is necessary, typical, possible, and what is atypical or impossible. A model of behavioral grammar extracted from fiction corpora can be based on Lewinian theory of behavior, and understood as a set of generalized descriptions of typical persons' behaviors in typical  psychophysiological conditions and typical circumstances.

description: El 26 de junio de 2003 el Consejo de Ministros de Agricultura cerró un acuerdo político sobre la reforma de la PAC. Este acuerdo instaura un nuevo modelo de apoyo a la agricultura europea fundado en dos ejes: la disociación de las ayudas respecto a la producción, basada en referencias históricas; y la modulación obligatoria con la paralela introducción de un mecanismo de disciplina financiera. Este artículo analiza la evolución de las negociaciones habidas en el seno de las Instituciones Europeas para alcanzar este acuerdo, así como el contenido y el alcance del nuevo modelo de apoyo. Finalmente, se hacen algunas sugerencias con vistas a instaurar un modelo de apoyo territorial, más coherente con la multifuncionalidad agraria, mediante la conversión del sistema de pagos únicos disociados aprobado en Luxemburgo...On the 26 june 2003, at Luxembourg, the Council of Agriculture Ministers reached a political agreement on the reform of the CAP. The agreement puts in place a new model for supporting European agriculture based on two axes: decoupling of subsidies from production based on historical payments; and compulsory modulation, in tandem with a mechanism for financial discipline. This paper analyses the evolution of the negociations which took place at the heart of the European Institutions to reach this agreement, as well as the content and scope of the new model of support. Finally, it makes some suggestions with regard to introduction of a land-based model of support, more in keeping with multifunctional agriculture, through the conversion of single decoupled payments adopted at Luxembourg.

For that purpose, we cany out a comparative study focused mainly, on the actions undertaken by Regional Governments in Spain. We aimed to assess the current sttatus of those processes in the Autonomous Regions, as well as to analyse the consecuences that the policies of sustainability by Regional Governments do have on decisions taken by City Councils at the Regions to undertake a process of Local Agenda 21. With this investigation, we confirm the hypothesis that the implementation of Local Agenda 21 still is in initial phases within the Spanish territory. Finally, we propose a series of recommendations that megh improve these processes.

description: Our research tackles the challenge of distinguishing between human and AI-generated text, a crucial issue in the era of advanced language models. We propose a unique approach using an ensemble and mixed-model strategy, focusing on accuracy and explainability. This method involves a variety of advanced text classification algorithms, applied to both English and Dutch texts across multiple genres. Notably, our work integrates SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) for clearer insights into model decisions, emphasizing the importance of explainable AI (XAI). Our study is significant in ensuring the authenticity and integrity of digital content in an increasingly AI-driven world.

description: La mère donne des précisions sur sa grossesse et son accouchement. Elle déclare être informée de l’importance de l’allaitement des nourrissons et donne des précisions sur la texture, l’aspect, et les nutriments du colostrum. Elle explique son mode alimentaire (elle ingère beaucoup de soupe) mais aussi ses croyances comme le fait de penser que les émotions négatives sont transmises par l’allaitement. L’enquêtrice demande également des renseignements sur la préparation des seins à l’allaitement et comment la mère se représente le parcours du lait dans le corps. Elle explique les effets du colostrum qui accélère et facilite l’évacuation du méconium. L’enquêtrice termine l’entretien en demandant si il existe des différences entre les sexes des bébés par rapport à l’allaitement. Ensuite sont évoquées les questions relatives au père, à la sexualité, aux problème esthétiques après l’allaitement.
Feshbach Spectroscopy of a Shape Resonance

description: We present a new spectroscopy technique for studying cold-collision properties. The technique is based on the association and dissociation of ultracold molecules using a magnetically tunable Feshbach resonance. The energy and lifetime of a shape resonance are determined from a measurement of the dissociation rate. Additional spectroscopic information is obtained from the observation of a spatial interference pattern between an outgoing s wave and d wave. The experimental data agree well with the results from a new model, in which the dissociation process is connected to a scattering gedanken experiment, which is analyzed using a coupled-channels calculation.

description: We investigate the effect of the experimentally observed Jahn-Teller distortion of the oxygen octahedra in LaTiO3 on the magnetic exchange. We present a localized model for the effective hopping between nearest-neighbor Ti ions and the intra-site Coulomb interactions, based on a non-degenerate orbital ground state due to the static crystal field. The latter corresponds to an orbital order which recently has been confirmed experimentally. Using perturbation theory we calculate, in addition to the Heisenberg coupling, antisymmetric and symmetric anisotropy terms of the superexchange spin Hamiltonian which are caused by the spin-orbit interaction. Employing our superexchange Hamiltonian, we deduce the magnetic order at low temperatures which is found to be in good agreement with experiment.

Global Spacetime Similarity

description: There are two classes of topologies most often placed on the space of Lorentz metrics on a fixed manifold. As I interpret a complaint of R. Geroch [Relativity, 259 (1970); Gen. Rel. Grav., 2, 61 (1971)], however, neither of these standard classes correctly captures a notion of global spacetime similarity. In particular, Geroch presents examples to illustrate that one, the compact-open topologies, in general seems to be too coarse, while another, the open (Whitney) topologies, in general seems to be too fine. After elaborating further the mathematical and physical reasons for these failures, I then construct a topology that succeeds in capturing a notion of global spacetime similarity and investigate some of its mathematical and physical properties.
