CBC MACs for Arbitrary-Length Messages: The Three-Key Constructions

Parametrising kinetic models of biological networks

Systems biology seeks to model biological networks dynamically. Two requirements need to be fulfilled for this to be possible. First, the interaction networks need to be known. Second, the dynamics of the interactions have to be revealed. Dynamics of interactions are described by rate laws using kinetics. These kinetics describe the interaction mechanism. For each single interaction occurring i...

Parametrising Degree of Articulator Movement from Dynamic MRI Data

A new approach is proposed for quantifying the degree of articulator movement within a phoneme as a single scalar value, using vocal tract images captured using dynamic MRI. This indicates the degree of physical movement of the articulators involved in speech production, rather than the acoustic consequences of that movement. We go on to show that this is a valid method for characterising the o...

Constructions Across Time and Space: Perspective Constructions

The German standard language and some of its dialects distinguish two types of directional adverbs, depending on the perspective taken in the speech event. For example, both SHG hinauf vs. herauf mean up. However, the two adverbs differ in that a motion verb modified by SHG hinauf will be construed not only as being UP(WARDS) but also as being AWAYFROM-(the)-ORIGO (we use the term origo to refe...

Parametrising Yields of Nuclear Multifragmentation Typeset Using Revt E X 2

We consider a model where, for a finite disintegrating system, yields of composites can be calculated to arbitrary accuracy. An analytic answer for yields is also known in the thermodynamic limit. In the range of temperature and density considered in this work, the model has a phase transition. This phase transition is first order. The analytic expression for yields of composites, in the thermo...
