Large scale and operational applications based on contiguous coverage with SAR data require a set of dedicated techniques in terms of signal handling and product interpretation. The GRFM SAR map of the West African rainforest domain is derived from some 340 JERS-1 SAR images acquired in a time span of 45 days. The original data with a pixel spacing of 12.5 m are spatially compressed by wavelet ...

The author suggests that dreaming cognition be modeled as reflecting dynamic, integrative, culturallysensitive, and historically holistic methods. The author conceptualizes six models of dreaming cognition. 1) Freudian dreaming model, 2) Jungian analytic model, 3) neurocognitive or neurophysiological dreaming model, 4) acculturative dreaming brain model (Sang Bok Lee, 2005: ”Lee Acculturation D...

A computational approach to the semantic interpretation of nominalizations is described. Interpretation of nominalizations involves three tasks: deciding whether the nominalization is being used in a verbal or non-verbal sense; disambiguating the nominalized verb when a verbal sense is used; and determining the fillers of the thematic roles of the verbal concept or predicate of the nominalizati...

The purpose of this study was to synthesize the research that has identified the organizational stressors encountered by sport performers and develop a taxonomic classification of these environmental demands. This study used a meta-interpretation, which is an interpretive form of synthesis that is suited to topic areas employing primarily qualitative methods. Thirty-four studies (with a combine...

For more than three decades, research into the psycholinguistics of pronoun interpretation has argued that hearers use various interpretation 'preferences' or 'strategies' that are associated with specific linguistic properties of antecedent expressions. This focus is a departure from the type of approach outlined in Hobbs (1979), who argues that the mechanisms supporting pronoun interpretation...

abstract background: participation of woman in decision-making processes is one of the key indicators of an appropriate relationship between a woman and the health care professionals. this study aimed to recognize the factors facilitating respect for woman’s decision-making in spontaneous birth. materials and methods: this paper employed a meta-synthesis on articles published in four biomedical...

The extent of the Genesis Flood has been vigorously debated by biblical scholars. For those who accept a recent creation week of six literal consecutive, twenty-four-days, a universal Flood is necessary to explain the existence of the geologic column. The thesis of this study is that only the traditional interpretation which posits a literal, universal, worldwide Genesis Flood does full justice...

This article describes a common inventory of interpretations for postpositions (Basque) and prepositions (English and Spanish). The inventory is a flat list of tags, based mainly on thematic roles. Using the same inventory allows to know for each postposition or preposition, which are the translations for each possible interpretation. We think this resource will be useful for studies on machine...

This paper presents an automatic approach to planting areas extraction for mixed vegetation and hilly region, more cloud using moderate spatial resolution and high temporal resolution MODIS data around Guangxi province, south of China. According to banana growth lasting more 9 to 11 months, and the areas are reduced during crush season, the Maximum likelihood was used to extract the information...

Reports of sleep-onset and nocturnal (EEG Stage 1, rapid eye-movement [REM] period) mentation, CPIs, and thematic fantasy responses were collected from 32 young-adult Ss. In confirmation of recent findings by Foulkes and Vogel, dreamlike mental activity was found to occur with fairly substantial frequency at sleep onset, albeit with wide individual differences. Patterning of personality correla...
