description: The interconnection of sensors and actuators of smart home devices creates dependencies that allow for ubiquitous services. These devices can be subject to transformative changes through software updates that might lead to unintended consequences. Users have no tools to predict the negative consequences caused by updating their smart home. In this paper, we address this problem and propose mechanisms that enable organized update planning in a smart home. We compare self-description standard approaches that allow reasoning about resulting functionality before updates are installed. Updating devices to their latest versions is not necessarily the best way to update smart homes, therefore we discuss multi-objective optimization in the update process. Finally, outsourcing functionality to external providers might reduce the complexity of certain tasks, but can also pose threats if the wrong tasks are offloaded.
deutsche komitative Konnektor 'wobei' in administrativen Texten und seine Entsprechungen im Italienischen

description: This paper deals with German 'wobei'-clauses and their Italian counterparts. Based on a corpus study of administrative texts, we identify the type and frequency of the Italian constructions that correspond to 'wobei'-clauses. In particular, we will assess to what extent the Italian converb construction gerundio correlates with 'wobei'-clauses. More specifically, we will focus on the thesis put forward by Haspelmath (1995) and Breindl (2014), according to which comitativity is expressed by converb constructions when it applies to state of affairs.

title: The Effect of CLN3 Disease on Organellar Characteristics
Creators: name: Coode, Emily
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2021

description: CLN3 disease, or juvenile dementia, is a lysosomal storage disorder with largely neurological symptoms. Towards the end of their lives, individuals with CLN3 disease develop a cardiac phenotype, which has not yet been systematically studied. On a cellular level, mutations in CLN3 have been shown to disrupt the endo-lysosomal system. However, the function of the CLN3 protein, which is localised on the lysosomal membrane, is still unknown. Positioning of lysosomes is affected by the physiological state of a cell and can be changed in diseases. This study developed a powerful assay for the automated analysis of lysosomal movement and positioning. This assay was then applied to study different cell lines with mutations in their CLN3 gene, specifically a CLN3 knockout HeLa cell line and patient-derived fibroblasts with two different CLN3 mutations. Lysosomal movement was found to be reduced in CLN3 patient fibroblasts. Additionally, the calcium signalling, mitochondrial membrane potential and responses to oxidative stress were characterised in the cells. These were found to be not affected by the mutations in CLN3. Another part of this study aimed to characterise changes in the structure and function of cardiac myocytes in CLN3 disease. This was approached in two ways: Firstly, changes in the structure of ventricular cardiac myocytes were investigated in hearts from mice with a common mutation causing CLN3 disease. Hearts from animals of three different ages were analysed, and changes in the mitochondria were found. Surprisingly, only little of the storage material, characteristic for lysosomal storage disorders, was found. Secondly, iPSC-derived cardiac myocytes were to be used to study changes in the cell’s function.

An interpretive description of the recruitment and retention of locum nurses working in rural and remote Australia
Creators: name: Becker, S
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023
Subjects: Nursing not elsewhere classified

description: It is widely acknowledged that rural and remote Australians have poorer levels of health than their major city counterparts. As nurses are the most widely and evenly distributed health professional across rural and remote areas of Australia, maintaining a nursing presence is imperative to ensure health care remains available and accessible. Maintaining the competence, health and wellbeing of nurses prepared to work in rural and remote areas is crucial. The presence of a locum workforce is one available strategy that can ensure the needs of the permanent nursing workforce, and the communities they serve, are met. This interpretive description study explores the phenomenon of the locum nurse in rural and remote areas of Australia. Findings from interviews with 19 participants who chose locum work in rural and remote areas aids understanding of the issues and challenges they experienced and how this impacted on their recruitment and retention. The description component brings elements of the locum nurse role and their experiences to the awareness of others, while the interpretation component provides a level of sensemaking derived from the patterns and themes in the findings that may potentially change the way the phenomena of the locum nurse is normally considered. Findings highlighted participants’ belief that they had a significant role in supporting the permanent workforce, this was revisited many times throughout their interviews and supported their retention. Receiving support to stay in their locum role was an important aspect that impacted on their experience and their retention to individual locations. Participants revealed the complexity of decision-making when working across rural and remote areas resulting in concern around their scope of practice. Participants chose to pursue a locum lifestyle despite the challenges living away from home presented. The findings of this study provide an understanding of the factors that impact on the recruitment and retention of locum nurses. Whatever motivators supported the predominantly urban-based nurses to come to these areas needs to be fostered and, in some instances, improved so that they find it easy to return. While participants had been retained to the workforce they cautioned that many aspects of their experience may negatively impact on the recruitment and retention of others. Time spent fostering the needs of the visiting locum workforce will ensure the permanent workforce receives the support it needs to maintain a health presence in the absence of sufficient numbers of other health professionals in rural and remote areas.
'Je-desto'-Satzgefüge als kanonische Verb-zweit-Sätze

Year: 2018

description: 'Je-desto'-Sätze scheinen in struktureller Hinsicht Einzelgänger zu sein. Das Ungewöhnliche ist, dass sie wie eine obligatorische Verb-dritt-Konstruktion daherkommen: An erster Stelle steht scheinbar der durch je eingeleitete Nebensatz im linken Außenfeld bzw. Vor-vor-Feld, dann folgt die desto-Konstituente, die das Vorfeld einnimmt, und dann an dritter Stelle das finite Verb des Matrixsatzes. Angesichts der Semantik der involvierten Konstituenten ist diese Strukturbeschreibung ungewöhnlich und widerspricht plausiblen Erwartungen. Der Aufsatz bietet eine Analyse, nach der der 'je'-Satz und die 'desto'-Konstituente zusammen eine komplexe Konstituente bilden, die eine einzige, ganz reguläre Einheit konstituiert, was bedeutet, dass der Gesamtsatz eine ziemlich reguläre Verb-zweit-Struktur ist.

description: Das im vorliegenden Artikel untersuchte Phänomen im Deutschen ist in der Literatur bisher quasi unentdeckt geblieben. Die einzige Ausnahme bildet der Beitrag von Berg (2008). Die Beobachtung ist folgende: Unter bestimmten Bedingungen, die mit Emphase zu tun haben, kann die lexikalisch festgelegte Betonung, also der Wortakzent, verschoben werden. Im Normalfall betrifft dieser Prozess nicht-native lexikalische Einheiten, denn die Akzentverschiebung passiert in der Regel von hinten nach vorn. Da deutsche Erbwörter initial-, also erstbetont, sind, ist das schwer möglich (jedoch s.u.). Fremdwörter, die auf den hinteren Silben betont sind, sind deshalb prädestiniert. Die meisten Beispiele kommen aus dem Bereich der Wortklasse Adjektiv: spektakulär, skandalös, sensationell, optimal, ideal, brutal, fulminant, perfekt, gigantisch. Im angedeuteten expressiven Gebrauch kann der Wortakzent von der letzten auf die erste Silbe wandern [...].

description: We combine the BCS self-consistency condition, a semiclassical expansion for the spectral density and interaction matrix elements to describe analytically how the superconducting gap depends on the size and shape of a 2d and 3d superconducting grain. In chaotic grains mesoscopic fluctuations of the matrix elements lead to a smooth dependence of the order parameter on the excitation energy. In the integrable case we find shell effects i. e. for certain values of the electron number $N$ a small change in N leads to large changes in the energy gap. With regard to possible experimental tests we provide a detailed analysis of the dependence of the gap on the coherence length and the robustness of shell effects under small geometrical deformations.

A phonological approach to Tennyson's Maud
Creators: name: Horsman, Nancy Christine
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Modern linguistics has offered methods of analysis which have permitted fresh insights into the structure of language. Two such methods are J. R. Firth's "prosodie analysis", which works from the hypothesis that the syllable is the basic unit of sound-meaning in English, and the phonemic theory of the major American structural linguists. This thesis uses a combination of both theories in order to explore some of the phonological structures of Maud and their relation to meaning. Such an analysis holds that /y/, /w/ and /h/ are prosodies which work to give resonant effects to the poem, as these same prosodies do in the language. From the phonological descriptions three suggestions emerge. First, Maud reveals a dominant /wh/ sound which, because of its very strong effect in the poem, intimates that it is a dominant sound in the language. Second, the poem has deep imbeddings of /ow/, /ay/, /ey/, /iy/, and /Xj and /d/ syllables, which occur in the poem as wave patterns of sound-meaning rather than as line patterns of sound and meaning. Third, there is a strong correlation between the sound syllables and the theme words in Maud, which points to the possibilities of a unit analysis of the syllable as the repository of sound-meaning in the poetry, and, perhaps, in the language. From these suggestions the thesis offers the conjectures that sound symbolism in poetry--as in language--has evolved, not from the poet's "instinctive" responses to the cries of nature, but from his sophisticated responses to the events of his own language, and that his uses of language events may have a supra-linear rather than a. line-by-line logic. Finally, the underlying assumption of the thesis is the view that English poetry, because of its conscious recognition of possible sound-meaning relationships in the language, may be the class of all language events and not the subclass of language events. This assumption recognizes that English poetry (or language) does not have to be conceived as having only linear arrangements.

description: An efficient two-component domino reaction strategy has been developed for the synthesis of 2,6-dicyanoaniline and 3-amino-9,10-dihydrophenanthrene-2,4-dicarbonitrile derivatives in moderate to good yield by the reaction between malononitrile and β-chloro-α,β-unsaturated aldehydes catalyzed by potassium hydroxide-18-crown-6 in methanol. In-vitro intercalation studies of 3-amino-9,10-dihydrophenanthrene-2,4-dicarbonitriles with Calf-Thymus DNA have been carried out which reveal that the moiety interacts with an affinity greater than that of ethidium bromide (EtBr).

subject: open-source
subject: interoperability

description: OPC UA is an industry-standard architecture for automation, process controlling and monitoring. It is a detailed and complex machine-to-machine communication protocol which makes it challenging to implement. The complexity of the protocol leads to heterogeneity among implementations. Today, there are several open-source implementations without a compliance certificate accredited by the OPC Foundation. Certified implementations undergo various tests to fulfil interoperability. Every implementation fits different use-cases and requirements as each of them comes with its own features. In this paper, we make a feature-based comparison of the most common open-source OPC UA implementations. We investigate their support for the essential features and functionalities. Furthermore, we evaluate their interoperability. Overall, our study shows that open-source implementations have good coverage of features and functionalities, especially open62541 and UA-.NETStandard. Furthermore, our tests show that they do not have any significant interoperability issue.
Effect of spin excitations on the property of quasiparticles in electron-doped cuprates

description: It is proposed that the 50-70 meV dispersion anomaly (kink) in electron-doped cuprates revealed by recent angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy experiments is caused by coupling with the spin fluctuation. We elaborate that the kink exists both along nodal and antinodal directions, and both in the superconducting and normal state. The renormalized effect for the density of states is also studied and the hump feature outside the superconducting coherent peak is established, consistent with recent scanning tunnelling microscopy experiments.

The analysis has been performed using 451 fb^{-1} of data collected at an e^+e^- center-of-mass energy near 10.58 GeV with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II storage rings. The number of events found in the data is compatible with the background expectation, and upper limits on the branching fractions are set in the range (2.6-19) x 10^{-8} at the 90% confidence level.

Caseless direct objects in Turkish revisited
Creators: name: Kamali, Beste
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2015

description: It has been claimed and widely assumed that caseless direct objects in Turkish exhibit a sort of syntactic incorporation, and only their cased counterparts are true syntactic arguments (Kornfilt 1997; Knecht 1986; Nilsson 1986; Öztürk 2005 among others). Cased and caseless objects are thus widely taken as derivationally related, crystallized in Kelepir's (2001) proposal that objects pick up overt accusative as they move out of the VP. In this paper, I would like to revisit both the empirical evidence and the interpretation leading to these claims and propose revisions. I first show that not all caseless objects are the same. Mostly drawing on Aydemir (2004), I argue that bare caseless objects and those with indefinite expressions have differences that would be very unusual if they were both incorporated. However, adopting Öztürk (2005) and against Aydemir (2004), neither of the cases can be analyzed as head incorporation. I then turn to the cased vs. caseless distinction and argue that cased and caseless objects are not that different after all. Based on data with strictly controlled information structure, I arrive at a different generalization than most of the earlier reports and claim that caseless objects are morphosyntactically as moveable as their cased counterparts. Hence, I propose to replace the notion of incorporation in the literature of Turkish syntax with the notion of weak case (de Hoop 1992) and conclude by a discussion of the domain of syntactic analysis in this primarily semantic phenomenon.

Ecology and epidemiology of Ross River virus in South Australia

Subjects: Ecology not elsewhere classified

description: Ross River virus (RRV) is the most prevalent mosquito-borne pathogen in Australia, causing polyarthritic disease in approximately 4500 people each year. A great deal is known about the virology and ecology of RRV across Australia, and Chapter 1 summarizes the current state of this knowledge. However, the ecology of RRV is spatially variable and dependent on locally available vectors and hosts and in South Australia, there were significant gaps in the understanding of RRV vectors, reservoirs and spatial distribution. It was unclear why RRV infection rates varied so dramatically across the state, particularly between the low rates in the Adelaide metropolitan region and the high rates in the Murray River Valley. The research presented in this thesis systematically improves our understanding of the mosquitoes, virus and socio-ecological factors driving the state-wide variation in RRV infection risk.

Verbal applicatives in Nuuchahnulth

description: In this article, I provide a description and analysis of the morphemes čiɫ 'do to', ḥta 'do towards' and cḥin 'do for' in the Southern Wakashan language Nuuchahnulth (nuučaan̓uɫ). I argue that these morphemes are verbal applicatives that add a non-core argument to the thematic structure of a verb. Verbal applicatives in Nuuchahnulth are interesting to investigate because they exhibit typologically unique behaviour that has never been studied before. Applicatives are traditionally considered functional elements whose only purpose is to add an indirect object to the argument structure of the verb (Pylkkanen 2002:17). Nuuchahnulth is the only known language that productively uses independent verbs for this purpose. Nuuchahnulth is an indigenous language of Canada spoken in the province of British Columbia. It consists of 14 major dialects, most of which have never been studied. All of these dialects are now highly endangered and urgently need to be documented.

The structure of synthesized triazoles was explicated by spectroscopic techniques like FTIR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HRMS and evaluated for in vitro antibacterial potential against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Most of synthesized triazole derivatives exhibited average to good inhibitory activity. However, compound 6x showed appreciable potent activity against the tested bacterial strains. In silico ADME analysis showed the good bioavailability of the compounds.
information structural effects of German P- and D-pronouns in discourse
Creators: name: Bittner, Dagmar
name: Dery, Jeruen E.
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2015

description: The present investigation steps back to the claims of the 1990s by assuming that there is a functional opposition in the use of P- and D-PRO which affects the status of the pronoun's referent in the mental model of the discourse. We interpret the earlier findings as an indication of an information structural difference which is specifically relevant on the discourse level. The question we address here is twofold. Firstly, we ask whether the assumed opposition in the information status of P- and D-PRO referents has consequences on referent continuation in the ongoing discourse. So far, the effects of P- vs. D-PRO use were determined concerning the status of the pronoun referent in the actual sequence of discourse, i.e. they were determined by a judgement on the salience or the topic/focus status of the pronominal DP. As far as we can see, this determination has not been operationalized further. Since there are contexts in which both P- and D-PRO would fit in with only a feeling of a difference but without clear-cut exclusiveness, the opposition is empirically not well validated. If we could show that there are effects of type of pronoun on the ongoing discourse this would, in our view, provide the lacking empirical validation. Secondly, we ask whether there are effects of the narrator's point of view on P- and D-PRO use. The idea behind this question is that the way of information unfolding in discourse depends on the speaker. S/he decides which pieces of information come next, what is foreground and what is background information. If type of pronoun choice is related to the processes of discourse organization by the speaker – via fore- and backgrounding of information – and if internal or external location of the narrator's point of view influences the organization strategies of the speaker/narrator this might have an ffect on the use of P- and D-PRO.

Preverbal ge- in Old and Middle English
Creators: name: McFadden, Thomas
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2015

description: This paper aims to work toward a proper understanding of the role of preverbal ge- in Old English (henceforth OE) and its disappearance in the course of Middle English. This prefix is reminiscent of its cognates in Modern German and Dutch (also written ge-) in its distribution, but even a cursory examination of the details reveals it to be quite distinct, as we will see. The proper characterization of that distribution, and of its diachronic development, has proven to be extremely difficult. I have thus carried out a large-scale corpus study using the York-Toronto-Helsinki parsed corpus of Old English prose (Taylor et al. 2003) and the Penn-Helsinki parsed corpus of Middle English, 2nd ed. (Kroch & Taylor 1999). This paper will report the results of the first phase of the project, involving patterns in the data that could be identified primarily on the basis of automatic searches in the corpora.

#Je suis Charlie: semantic and prosodic anatomy of an empathic copular sentence
Creators: name: Hamlaoui, Fatima
name: Roussarie, Laurent
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2015

description: "Je suis Charlie" was used over 619.000 times in the two days that have followed the attack of the editorial team of Charlie Hebdo (Le Progrès, The Huffington Post) and has regularly been taken up in both written and spoken form since. In this paper, we argue that the structure of this sentence actually clashes with its meaning. More specifically, whereas its word order and default rightmost sentence stress are compatible either with an all-focus reading or a narrow focusing of Charlie, the context of use of this sentence as well as the solidarity/empathy message it intends to communicate suggest that its subject is narrowly focused. We will propose that two strategies have emerged to solve this conflict: (i) various alternative forms have appeared that allow proper subject focusing and (ii) speakers have reinterpreted the structure so as to pragmatically retrieve the (additive) focused nature of the subject.

description: The papers collected in this volume have very diverse topics – such as prosodic peculiarities (Meinunger and Hamlaoui & Roussarie), morphological items (McFadden and Steriopolo), or phenomena concerning syntax and its interfaces, such as syntax-morphology (Kamali), syntax-parsing (Winkler), or syntax-pragmatics (Bittner & Dery). The languages considered range from quite prominent German and French via Turkish to very exotic Nuuchahnulth or no longer spoken Old and Middle English. However, all contributions center around structural phenomena and provide analyses in terms of grammatical theory.

A Class of Physically Motivated Closures for Radiation Hydrodynamics

description: Radiative transfer and radiation hydrodynamics use the relativistic Boltzmann equation to describe the kinetics of photons. It is difficult to solve the six-dimensional time-dependent transfer equation unless the problem is highly symmetric or in equilibrium. When the radiation field is smooth, it is natural to take angular moments of the transfer equation to reduce the degrees of freedom. However, low order moment equations contain terms that depend on higher order moments. To close the system of moment equations, approximations are made to truncate this hierarchy. Popular closures used in astrophysics include flux limited diffusion and the M1 closure, which are rather ad hoc and do not necessarily capture the correct physics. In this paper, we propose a new class of closures for radiative transfer and radiation hydrodynamics. We start from a different perspective and highlight the consistency of a fully relativistic formalism. We present a generic framework to approximate radiative transfer based on relativistic Grad's moment method. We then derive a 14-field method that minimizes unphysical photon self-interaction.

description: Neue Mobilitätslösungen (NML), wie Carsharing, City Bikes oder E-Scooter, werden in Großstädten immer beliebter und gewinnen zunehmend Einfluss darauf, wie sich Menschen im Stadtgebiet fortbewegen. Mittelfristig ist zu erwarten, dass die Zunahme der NML-Kundenanzahl auch auf öffentliche Verkehrsunternehmen und insbesondere deren IT-Landschaft Auswirkungen haben wird. Das Ziel dieses Papiers ist, dieses Thema aus der Perspektive der Unternehmensarchitektur (UA) zu beleuchten. Obwohl das UA-Management als relevant für öffentliche Verkehrsunternehmen anerkannt ist, fehlt es an Untersuchungen darüber, wie die NML die UA verändern. Der Zweck unserer Forschung ist es, einen Beitrag zu diesem Bereich zu leisten, indem wir die Relevanz des Themas aus der Geschäftsperspektive untersuchen. Der Hauptbeitrag unserer Arbeit ist (a) eine Literaturanalyse der Nutzung von UA im ÖPNV und für die Integration der NML, (b) Anforderungen bei einer NML-Integration aus Sicht von Betreiber, Kunde und Mobilitätsdienstleister mit Relevanz für UA, und (c) erste Anforderungen an die Integration von NML in UA.
Leading the implementation of the national curriculum: a case study in one Queensland school
Creators: name: Dao, LTK
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023
Subjects: Educational administration, management and leadership

description: The research investigated how members of the school curriculum leadership team in one P-12 independent school led the implementation of the Australian Curriculum, and the challenges and enablers they encountered in this implementation. The findings suggest members positioned higher in the school hierarchy tend to refer more to direct use of powers, while those positioned lower in the school structure tend to refer more to indirect use of powers. Moreover, school leaders should consider the interactive nature of the change process in their planning and implementation of large-scale education reform, as it can facilitate or hinder such implementation.
Evaluation of forest land in British Columbia
Creators: name: Robinson, E. A. F.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The general increased demand for all types of land by various users has intensified the problem of estimating the value of forest land, and of attempting to bring about its best use. This thesis sets forth the theoretical conditions necessary for the optimum distribution of land resources, and analyses some of the barriers which exist in the real world, both in the market and in the sphere of public decision-making. Current methods of evaluating forest land in B.C. are reviewed. The varied reasons for an appraisal: investment, expropriation, condemnation, damage appraisal, taxation, comparative evaluation and transfer of tenure, effectively divide this portion of the study, and form a basis for comparison. Demands for forest land, singly and on a multiple-use basis can only be arbitrated by a supra government body recruited from a disinterested group of professional resource managers. It is imperative that this department be provided with the knowledge necessary to construct economic as well as technical priority scales, so that decisions can be rational, and lead toward the best use of the resource.

description: A new synthetic methodology has been developed for the synthesis of N-alkyl and N-aryl arenesulfinamides. The methodology involved reacting arenesulfinic acids (R = -Me, -H, -Cl) with 1,1’-carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) to form the reactive intermediate, an arenesulfinylimidazole. This intermediate was then reacted with both primary and secondary amines to yield the corresponding N-alkyl sulfinamides in yields up to 90%. While the overall yields ranged from 52% to 90%, the level of diastereoselection with racemic or enantiomerically enriched amines only reached a level of 54:46 favoring the major diastereomer as determined by analysis of the 500 MHz 1H NMR spectra. A series of aniline derivatives were also investigated as coupling partners and were found to form the N-aryl arenesulfinamide in good yield.
note on bare-passives in (selected) Bantu and Western Nilotic Languages
Creators: name: Hamlaoui, Fatima
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2014

description: In the present paper, we concentrate on (selected) Bantu and Nilotic bare-passive strategies and lay out the basis for a typology of transitive passive constructions in these languages. We argue that bare-passives constitute an optimal strategy to change prominence relations between arguments, in languages that strongly hold to the default mapping between the highest thematic role available and the grammatical subject (i.e. Spec,TP). The Nilotic and Bantu languages discussed here differ in their way of satisfying this default mapping. In particular, impersonal bare-passives satisfy it by resorting to an agentive place-holder (an indefinite subject marker) and realizing the logical agent as a lower thematic/semantic role (e.g. instrument or locative). Left-dislocation and so called 'subjectobject' reversal bare-passives realize the default matching between agent and subject in a more straightforward way, but locate the patient in a higher argument position within the inflectional domain (Spec,TopP). As argued in Hamlaoui and Makasso (2013) and Hamlaoui (2013), and in line with Noonan (1977), the present languages display a clauseinternal split between subjecthood (being the grammatical subject in Spec,TP) and topicality (being the subject of the predication, in an inflectional-domain internal Spec,TopP).

description: Writer identification is an important task to gain knowledge about life in the past, which is commonly solved by paleographic experts. In this work, we investigate an automatic writer identification procedure based on deep learning. So far, the most approaches are based on two or more different pipeline steps and only few of them can be trained in an end-to-end manner. In this paper, we propose a fully end-to-end deep learning-based model, which consists of a U-Net for binarization, a ResNet-50 for feature extraction, and an optimized learnable residual encoding layer to obtain global descriptors. We evaluate the proposed end-to-end model on the ICDAR17 competition dataset on historical document writer identification (Historical-WI) dataset. Moreover, we investigate the performance of our optimized encoding layer on three texture datasets. While the optimized encoding layer does not work well in the task of writer identification, it provides better performance on the texture datasets. Furthermore, we show that a pre-trained U-Net can improve the performance for writer identification.
preverbal position(s) in Bantu inversion constructions: theoretical and comparative considerations
Creators: name: Marten, Lutz
Publisher: name: ZAS Papers in Linguistics
Year: 2014

description: Inversion constructions in Bantu have been discussed from a variety of perspectives over the last decades. Well-known construction types include locative inversion and subject-object reversal, while more recently semantic locative inversion and instrument inversion have been described. Theoretical studies of Bantu inversion constructions have focused on different aspects of the construction, including the licensing and grammatical function, information structure properties and the formal characteristics of pre- and postverbal NPs. With respect to the status of preverbal NPs in inversion constructions, different analyses have probed the status of the NP as subject or topic, or, more recently, as the subject of a Predication relation. The present paper summarises and compares different analyses of the preverbal domain in inversion constructions and brings out empirical and conceptual similarities and differences. In addition, different analyses are related to comparative studies of Bantu inversion constructions, so as to probe how attested variation across Bantu relates to findings of different formal accounts. The paper aims to summarise current research on the preverbal domain in inversion constructions and to indicate directions for future work.

description: We present a program for the numerical evaluation of form factors entering the calculation of one-loop amplitudes with up to six external legs. The program is written in Fortran95 and performs the reduction to a certain set of basis integrals numerically, using a formalism where inverse Gram determinants can be avoided. It can be used to calculate one-loop amplitudes with massless internal particles in a fast and numerically stable way.
