The Semantics of Verbs and the Development of Verb Inflections in Child Language

description: The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between the semantic organization of verbs used in early sentences and the emergence of the inflections of the verb auxiliary (-ing, -s, -ed, irreg). In discussions of the acquisition of grammatical morphemes by Brown (1973), de Villiers & de Villiers (1973), and others, only the syntax and semantics (along with environmental frequency) of the individual morphemes themselves have been seriously discussed as contributing to the order in which they are acquired. However, the results of the present study suggest that the semantic organization of the verb system that children learn is at least as important as the meanings of the verb inflections for determining their acquisition.

description: Land-based investments can create significant grievances for local individuals or communities, and host governments seeking to address those grievances must navigate a complicated landscape of legal obligations and pragmatic considerations. This report focuses on practical solutions for governments confronting grievances that arise from large-scale investments in agricultural or forestry projects. The report considers such solutions in the context of governments’ legal obligations, particularly those imposed by international investment law, international human rights law, and investor-state contracts. Understanding the implications of this diverse range of legal obligations is particularly important in light of investors’ growing recourse to international investment arbitration, which can expose a government to liability under an international investment treaty for actions that may be in the best interest of a country and its citizens. Analyzing such obligations is a useful first step for a government seeking to protect its citizens against the negative impacts of land-based investments.

description: From a theoretical perspective, the link between the speed and scope of rapid labor reallocation and productivity growth or income inequality is ambiguous. Do reallocations with more flows tend to produce higher productivity growth? Does such a link appear at the expense of higher income inequality? We explore the rich evidence from earlier studies on worker flows in the period of massive and rapid labor reallocation, that is, the economic transition from a centrally planned to a market-oriented economy in CEE. We have collected over 450 estimates of job flows from the literature and used these inputs to estimate the short-run and long-run relationship between labor market flows, labor productivity, and income inequality. We apply the tools typical for a meta-analysis to verify the empirical regularities between labor flows and productivity growth as well as income inequality. Our findings suggest only weak and short-term links with productivity, driven predominantly by business cycles. However, data reveal a strong pattern for income inequality in the short run--more churning during reallocation is associated with a level effect toward increased Gini indices.

description: Implementing precise operations on quantum systems is one of the biggest challenges for building quantum devices in a noisy environment. Dynamical decoupling (DD) attenuates the destructive effect of the environmental noise, but so far it has been used primarily in the context of quantum memories. Here, we present a general scheme for combining DD with quantum logical gate operations and demonstrate its performance on the example of an electron spin qubit of a single nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond. We achieve process fidelities >98% for gate times that are 2 orders of magnitude longer than the unprotected dephasing time $T_{2}$.

description: We consider the problem of synthesizing provably non-overflowing integer arithmetic expressions or Boolean relations among integer arithmetic expressions. First we use a numerical abstract domain to infer numerical properties among program variables. Then we check if those properties guarantee that a given expression does not overflow. If this is not the case, we synthesize an equivalent, yet not-overflowing expression, or we report that such an expression does not exists. The synthesis of a non-overflowing expression depends on three, orthogonal factors: the input expression (e.g., is it linear, polynomial,... ?), the output expression (e.g., are case splits allowed?), and the underlying numerical abstract domain - the more precise the abstract domain is, the more correct expressions can be synthesized. We consider three common cases: (i) linear expressions with integer coefficients and intervals; (ii) Boolean expressions of linear expressions; and (iii) linear expressions with templates. In the first case we prove there exists a complete and polynomial algorithm to solve the problem. In the second case, we have an incomplete yet polynomial algorithm, whereas in the third we have a complete yet worst-case exponential algorithm.

description: Vapor growth of semiconductors is analyzed using recently obtained dependence of the adsorption energy on the electron charge transfer between the surface adsorbed species and the bulk [Krukowski et al. J. Appl. Phys. 114 (2013) 063507, Kempisty et al. ArXiv 1307.5778 (2013)]. Ab initio calculations were performed to study the physical properties of GaN(0001) surface in ammonia-rich conditions, i.e. covered by mixture of NH3 molecules and NH2 radicals. The Fermi level is pinned at valence band maximum (VBM) and conduction band minimum (CBM) for full coverage by NH3 molecules and NH2 radicals, respectively. For the crossover content of ammonia of about 25% monolayer (ML), the Fermi level is unpinned. It was shown that hydrogen adsorption energy depends on the doping in the bulk for the unpinned Fermi level, i.e. for this coverage. Surface structure thermodynamic and mechanical stability criteria are defined and compared. Mechanical stability of the coverage of such surfaces was checked by determination of the desorption energy of hydrogen molecules. Thermodynamic stability analysis indicates that initally equilibrium hydrogen vapor partial pressure steeply increases with NH3 content to attain the crossover NH3/NH2 coverage, i.e. the unpinned Fermi level condition. For such condition the entire range of experimentally accessible pressures belongs showing that vapor growth of semiconductor crystals occurs predominantly for unpinned Fermi level at the surface, i.e. for flat bands. Accordingly, adsorption energy of most species depends on the doping in the bulk that is basis of the possible molecular scenario explaining dependence of the growth and the doping of semiconductor crystals on the doping in the bulk

description: We present a technique for deriving semantic program analyses from a natural semantics specification of the programming language. The technique is based on a particular kind of semantics called pretty-big-step semantics. We present a pretty-big-step semantics of a language with simple objects called O'While and specify a series of instrumentations of the semantics that explicitates the flows of values in a program. This leads to a semantics-based dependency analysis, at the core, e.g., of tainting analysis in software security. The formalization has been realized with the Coq proof assistant.

description: Hyperspectral images show similar statistical properties to natural grayscale or color photographic images. However, the classification of hyperspectral images is more challenging because of the very high dimensionality of the pixels and the small number of labeled examples typically available for learning. These peculiarities lead to particular signal processing problems, mainly characterized by indetermination and complex manifolds. The framework of statistical learning has gained popularity in the last decade. New methods have been presented to account for the spatial homogeneity of images, to include user's interaction via active learning, to take advantage of the manifold structure with semisupervised learning, to extract and encode invariances, or to adapt classifiers and image representations to unseen yet similar scenes. This tutuorial reviews the main advances for hyperspectral remote sensing image classification through illustrative examples.

Learning Internal Structure of Words with Factored Generative Models

Subjects: subject: 80107 Natural Language Processing
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: While it has recently been the dominant trend in NLP to treat words as flat vectors, we are well aware that words have intelligible structures within. In this thesis, I aim to extract more structured, interpretable representations of words that reflect such inner workings, by means of generative modeling. Such representations are discovered in attempts to model the phenomenon of inflectional morphology, bywhich words are systematically categorized into different grammatical classes, and manifest form changes accordingly to such classes. Approaches to studying internal structures of words can categorize into one of the three families of morphological theories: morpheme-based item-and-arrangement (IA) models, lexeme-based item-and-process (IP) models, and word-based wordand-paradigm (WP) models. Here, I pay attention to the fact there have been relatively few attempts to computationally learn IP morphologies, especially in unsupervisedsettings. As the modern NLP community is equipped with more powerful tools to model—or approximate—complicated distributions, we are now in a good position to attempt extracting morphological models based on functional processes. In this work, I employ two different techniques to approach the problem of learning IP morphologies by generative modeling. First, I implement hidden Markovmodels with factored latent states, which emit continuous word embeddings, as a non-neural baseline. Then, I implement neural autoencoders that extend the factoredHMMs via adversarial training, to lift a number of simplifying assumptions made by the baseline. After a series of extensive evaluation experiments, I find out that although modeling of IP morphologies is an attainable goal when we have access to annotated data, purely unsupervised learning of IP morphologies remains to be a significant challenge. Specifically, it is confirmed that unrestricted training based on the common likelihood-based objective is likely to drift apart from human linguistic knowledge, without any means to regularize the training of highly complicatedmodels.

description: The paper presents the results of a study of patterns of exploratory behavior and processes of lipid peroxidation in liver tissue in young and old female rats, depending on the stage of the estrous cycle. The studies were carried out on females in the estrus and diestrus stages. It was shown that females at the age of 2-3 months were characterized by regular reproductive cycles with an average duration of 4.5 ± 0.11 days, which corresponds to the normal estrous cycle of sexually mature rats, which includes 4 consecutive stages. Animals 24 months old had cycles different from the normal physiological cycles of young animals. The work shows that in young sexually mature females the motor activity in the open field test is higher, and the level of anxiety is lower in the estrus stage compared to the analogous indicators in the diestrus stage. In young females, the baseline MDA level was significantly higher in the diestrus stage relative to that in the estrus stage. Patterns of exploratory behavior and the level of LPO depended on the age of the animal. Old rats had an increased level of anxiety regardless of the stage of the reproductive cycle, while young females were characterized by higher patterns of exploratory activity. In addition, old female rats had a higher level of free radical oxidation in comparison with young animals.

description: No doubt that the identification of predisposition toward certain types of activities becomes essential, which will allow using additional educational technologies as early as possible, thereby contributing to the development of existing powers in individuals and, as a result, increasing the productivity of future endeavors. There has been conducted a molecular genetic study of the frequency distribution of alleles and genotypes of 15 polymorphic genes variants, those involved in the regulation of memory span, synaptic plasticity, and the functioning of neurotransmitter systems of the brain of 7th and 8th grade students. DNA samples recovered from peripheral blood lymphocytes of 197 adolescents (89 boys, 108 girls), served as the material for molecular genetic testing; the students of the Municipal Autonomous Educational Institution «Lyceum No. 42» of the city district of Ufa city of the Republic of Bashkortostan – none registered in medical records. Statistically significant associations were defined: on the «general activity» scale with polymorphic loci rs6265 of the BDNF gene, rs4680 in the COMT gene and rs1387923 of the NTRK2 gene, on the «mathematical intelligence» scale – rs6265 of the BDNF gene, on the psychoticism scale – rs2710102 in the CNTNAP2 gene, rs6280 in the DRD3 gene, rs1018381 in the DTNBP1 gene and rs1387923 in gene NTRK2, on the neuroticism scale – rs6675281 in the DISC1 gene, on the «spatial intelligence» scale – rs6675281 in the DISC1 gene and rs4971684 in the NRXN1 gene, on the «extroversion» scale – rs2832407 in the GRIK1 gene.

description: These Sessional Clippings books cover the period 1891 to 1972, and include newspaper accounts written by various legislative reporters who covered debates occurring in the British Columbia Legislative Assembly. Transcripts of debates of the Legislative Assembly (Hansard) were not published in B.C. until 1970; hence these "Sessional Clipping Books" augment the "Journals", the record of daily proceedings of the Legislative Assembly. Selected clippings from various newspapers including the Vancouver Sun, the Vancouver Province, the Colonist, and the Times newspapers, relating to the newspaper reports concerning activities of the Legislature. The original sessional clippings books comprise 351 ledger size print volumes, held at the Legislative Library in Victoria BC. The print volumes were microfilmed onto 26 reels in 1977 under a Tri University Libraries (TRIUL) project by Precision Micrographic Services (Vancouver, B.C.), with the permission of the Legislative Library, Victoria, British Columbia. This digital collection was created by scanning the 26 microfilm reels.

description: A review using the information on the problem in domestic and foreign sources of literature was carried out. Selected wild berries of Yakutia in their composition contain anthocyanins, flavanols and other biologically active compounds with experimentally proven anticancer effect in vitro against breast cancer cells. It has been noted that there is an insufficient study of wild berries as preventive agents against breast cancer. Experimental studies have proven the role of lingonberry in inhibiting the development of carcinogen-induced epithelial cancer, and cell culture of lingonberry and cloudberry can reduce the viability and proliferative activity of breast cancer cells. It is recommended to conduct researches on the effect of extracts, juice of northern berries on the development of breast cancer cell culture and find out their possible preventive and therapeutic effect.

description: Fact sheet on accidents in the workplace produced by the Women’s Occupational Health Resource Center (WOHRC). The WOHRC (1979-1987) was a research and training program devoted to identifying and better understanding hazards faced by women workers. WOHRC was housed in Columbia’s School of Public Health and directed by Professor Jeanne Mager Stellman. WOHRC was a designated OSHA New Directions Training program, and also received support from other federal and private agencies. As a New Directions project, WOHRC trained thousands of workers and professionals in hazard recognition and accident and illness prevention for women workers. In order to carry out its public health programs, WOHRC developed and disseminated original educational materials. The materials were designed to be authoritative while at the same time accessible to non-professional users (e.g. the workers).

description: We have analyzed the distribution of alleles and genotypes of three polymorphic variants: rs11385942 of the LZTFL1 gene, rs657152 of the AB0 gene, and rs2109069 of the DPP9 gene previously associated with COVID-19 in a sample of 80 presumably healthy individuals of the Permsky Bashkirs from the Permsky region of Russia, 48 representatives of the Burzyan region and 47 representatives of the Arkhangelsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan of Russia. No statistically significant differences were shown between the Burzyan Bashkirs and the populations of Southern Siberia in the rs11385942 LZTFL1 locus, in contrast to the subpopulations of the Permsky and Arkhangelsky Bashkirs. We also revealed statistically significant differences in the frequency of the minor allele, the rs11385942 LZTFL1 and rs657152 loci of the ABO gene between Burzyan Bashkirs and a mixed sample of Komi and Udmurts. In turn, the subpopulations of the Permsky and Arkhangelsky Bashkirs in the rs657152 locus of the ABO gene were statistically significantly different from the Tatars.

description: Aim: Telemonitoring (TM) is a safe and efficient monitoring system for internal cardioverter defibrillator device (ICD) recipients. TM has been used to track info on the clinical status of heart failure patients treated by ICD and/or cardiac resynchronisation therapy defibrillator (CRT-D). The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of TM on clinical outcomes in a population of CRT-D patients with heart failure.

Methods: In a multicentre, randomised study, patients with chronic heart failure, New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class II or III, left bundle branch block, severe left ventricle ejection fraction reduction (LVEF < 35%) have been identified and screened.

Results: One hundred and ninety-one patients have been randomised to receive either a CRT-D with TM or a CRT-D with traditional ambulatory monitoring (control group) and completed the 12-month study follow-up. Primary endpoints were all cause death, cardiac death and hospital admission for heart failure. Secondary endpoints were atrial fibrillation, sustained episodes, non-sustained and self terminated ventricular tachyarrhythmia, sustained ventricular tachycardia, and ventricular fibrillation, ICD shocks and percentage of CRT-D responder patients. Univariate analysis identified the following factors predicting hospitalisation: TM, age, chronic kidney disease, hypercholesterolaemia, LVEF and NYHA class. At multivariate analysis, TM was the only factor predicting heart failure hospitalisation (hazard ratio 0.6, 0.42–0.79, 95% CI, p = 0.002), without affecting overall mortality and cardiac deaths events.

Conclusions: Taken together, our data indicate the importance of TM in predicting heart failure hospitalisation in patients treated with CRT-D.

tympanic membrane thickness.

description: Introduction: the average thickness of the tympanic membrane (TM) normally fluctuates around 100 µm. Most of the measurements of the TM thickness presented in previous works were performed on cadaveric material. The anatomical parameters of the TM can be measured using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Materials and methods: we used spectral-domain OCT with a non-contact probe to study the structures of the middle ear. The results of OCT examination of 58 tympanic membranes of patients without middle ear pathology were analyzed. Quantitative analysis of OCT images was performed using the ImageJ program. The thickness of the tympanic membrane was calculated manually at 5 randomly selected points. To convert optical values into metric ones, we used an average refractive index of 1.45. Results: the TM thickness in patients without ear pathology was 138 µm (±29). Conclusions: OCT is an effective method of non-invasive examination of the TM and can be successfully used to measure the TM thickness. Improving the algorithms for processing OCT images in order to automatically calculate the TM thickness and make TM topographic maps remains a crucial task and its solution is expected to significantly improve the diagnostic properties of the method.

description: Cataract remains the leading cause of reversible blindness worldwide. Inflammatory postoperative complications remain a significant challenge associated with cataract phacoemulsification. These include corneal melting, also known as aseptic keratomalacia, a sight-threatening inflammatory condition that precedes corneal perforation. Case description: a 70-year-old patient underwent cataract phacoemulsification and subsequently developed indomethacin induced corneal erosion. Despite 2 months of conservative treatment, the erosion progressed to a corneal ulcer. To prevent corneal perforation, a prophylactic conjunctival flap was performed. Dry eye disease and Sjogren's syndrome were diagnosed postoperatively. Follow-up was 5 years. Conclusions: the presented case demonstrates for the first time the role of indomethacin as a trigger of corneal melting after cataract phacoemulsification. Corneal melting, potentially leading to corneal perforation, may occur after successful surgery not only in patients with diagnosed dry eye disease and systemic collagenosis but also in asymptomatic patients. Torpid progression, resistance to conventional therapy and a high risk of corneal perforation require a specialist to select appropriate therapeutic and surgical treatment methods as soon as possible. Treatment begins with withdrawal of NSAIDs, local and systemic steroid therapy, intensive corneal lubrication and objective monitoring using anterior segment optical coherence tomography.

description: Using Seiberg-Witten Floer spectrum and Pin(2)-equivariant KO-theory, we prove new Furuta-type inequalities on the intersection forms of spin cobordisms between homology $3$-spheres. As an application, we give explicit constrains on the intersection forms of spin $4$-manifolds bounded by Brieskorn spheres $\pmΣ(2,3,6k\pm1)$. Along the way, we also give an alternative proof of Furuta-Kametanni's improvement of 10/8-theorem for closed spin-4 manifolds.

description: For a long time, the strains Bifidobacterium bifidum 1, Bifidobacterium bifidum 791, and Bifidobacterium longum 379 have been successfully used as probiotic producers; the conclusions about the possibility of their use, their role and functions in the human body were made empirically based on indirect signs. At present, high-tech equipment and modern research methods allow to conduct a complete study of the properties and characterization of strains; it is regulated by modern regulatory documents. In our work we applied the classical bacteriological method, MALDI TOF mass spectrometry method, NGS whole genome sequencing. The analysis of 27 clones of the strains revealed that they have typical morphological properties and stable biochemical profiles; the lists of ionized protein masses (so-called «strain markers») were determined. The whole genomes of strains deposited by us in GenBank in 2015–2017 were analyzed for the first time; we found that they do not contain pathogenicity genes, integrated plasmids, determinants of transmissible antibiotic resistance, and belong to phylogenetic clusters formed by probiotic-producing strains. It was shown that B. bifidum 1 and B. bifidum 791 have a pronounced ability to consume glycans of intestinal mucus, while B. longum 379 can efficiently consume plant glycans. The genomes of B. bifidum 791 and B. longum 379 strains contain genes for the synthesis of the most important neurometabolites of tryptophan and folic acid; the genome of B. bifidum 791 strain contains genes for the synthesis of lasso peptide and flavucin, class I lantibiotics with a wide spectrum of antimicrobial and antiviral activity.

description: These Sessional Clippings books cover the period 1891 to 1972, and include newspaper accounts written by various legislative reporters who covered debates occurring in the British Columbia Legislative Assembly. Transcripts of debates of the Legislative Assembly (Hansard) were not published in B.C. until 1970; hence these "Sessional Clipping Books" augment the "Journals", the record of daily proceedings of the Legislative Assembly. Selected clippings from various newspapers including the Vancouver Sun, the Vancouver Province, the Colonist, and the Times newspapers, relating to the newspaper reports concerning activities of the Legislature. The original sessional clippings books comprise 351 ledger size print volumes, held at the Legislative Library in Victoria BC. The print volumes were microfilmed onto 26 reels in 1977 under a Tri University Libraries (TRIUL) project by Precision Micrographic Services (Vancouver, B.C.), with the permission of the Legislative Library, Victoria, British Columbia. This digital collection was created by scanning the 26 microfilm reels.

description: In-depth studies of the etiology and consequences of brain damage induced by chronic prenatal hypoxia are now urgently needed to improve the therapeutic strategies and reinforcing the adaptive capacity of nerve cells to oxygen deficiency. Here, we analyzed the characteristics of spontaneous calcium activity of primary hippocampal cultures obtained from mouse embryos exposed to chronic prenatal hypoxia in a late period of development in vitro (DIV 15 – DIV 21) and the adaptive capabilities of neuron-glial networks to the acute hypoxic injury. Chronic hypoxic stress caused several delays in the functional development of primary hippocampal cultures. On DIV 15, the cultures exhibited the spontaneous calcium activity with a decreased number of active cells and duration of Ca2+ oscillations. The reduced values of network characteristics (DIV 15) in the presence of partial destruction of the functional architecture of neuronglial networks with a reduced force of correlated connections between cells during entire observation period were also shown. Chronic hypoxic stress altered the functional culture's response to acute oxygen deficiency. On day 7 after acute hypoxia modelling, against the background of significant decrease in the number of functionally active cells, the frequency and duration of Ca2+ oscillations did not differ from the intact values. Nevertheless, significant decrease in the network characteristics accompanied by substantial rearrangements in the functional architecture of neuron-glial networks indicate the death of significant part of the network elements and increase the risk of aggravation the synaptic transmission impairments leading to loss of network functionality in more distant post-hypoxic period.

description: G protein coupled receptor kinase type 2 (GRK2) plays an important role in the development and maintenance of cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure even if its exact role is still unknown. In this study, we assessed the effect of GRK2 on the regulation of cardiac hypertrophy. In H9C2 cells, GRK2 overexpression increased atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) activity and enhanced phenylephrine-induced ANF response, and this is associated with an increase of NFκB transcriptional activity. The kinase dead mutant and a synthetic inhibitor of GRK2 activity exerted the opposite effect, suggesting that GRK2 regulates hypertrophy through upregulation of NFκB activity in a phosphorylation-dependent manner. In two different in vivo models of left ventricle hypertrophy (LVH), the selective inhibition of GRK2 activity prevented hypertrophy and reduced NFκB transcription activity. Our results suggest a previously undisclosed role for GRK2 in the regulation of hypertrophic responses and propose GRK2 as potential therapeutic target for limiting LVH.

description: The acquisition of to in infinitive complement structure was examined in the spontaneous speech data from four children, who were observed longitudinally from two to three years of age. The children learned to as a complementizer connective in the context of a small group of verbs and other matrix forms that take a verb phrase complement. They did not learn to in the context of the complement verbs to mark the infinitive. Secondly, the children learned to with the meaning ‘direction towards’ and not as a meaningless syntactic marker. These results contribute to understanding the relation between the acquisition of complex syntax and the verb system in child language, and to evaluating traditional and contemporary linguistic theories of infinitive complement structure in English.
