OBJECTIVES The ability to perceive high spatial frequencies (i.e., fine detail) is impaired when contours are placed near the detail to be resolved (Bouma, H. [1970]. Interaction effects in parafoveal letter recognition. Nature, 226, 177-178. doi:10.1038/226177a0; Flom, M. C., Weymouth, F. W., & Kahneman, D. [1963]. Visual resolution and contour interaction. Journal of the Optical Society of Am...

Land evaluation is the process of predicting the use potential of land on the basis of its attributes. A variety of analytical models can be used in these predictions, ranging from qualitative to quantitative, functional to mechanistic, and specific to general. This paper classifies land evaluation models by how they take time and space into account, and whether they use land qualities as an in...

HPSG accounts of filler-gap dependencies hold considerable potential for explaining the cross-linguistic variation in unbounded dependency constructions (UDCs), specifically filler-gap dependencies. This potential comes from the SLASH specifications that are posited in all nodes along the extraction path (the path between filler and gap). However, as Hukari and Levine (1994, 1995, 1996) have ob...

the purpose of this paper is to generalize the concepts of statisticalconvergence of sequences of fuzzy numbers defined by a modulus functionusing difference operator $delta$ and give some inclusion relations.

this study is focused on the biostratigraphy, sedimentary environments, facies distribution, and sequence stratigraphy of the coniacian–santonian sediments of tange-bulfaris section. five assemblage zones have been recognized by distribution of the foraminifera in the study area. assemblage zone 1(chara ostracods zone) is coniacian in age and occurs in the lower part of the succession. assembla...

in this paper, the notion of n, pn - summability to generalize the concept of statisticalconvergence is used. we call this new method weighted statistically convergence. we also establish itsrelationship with statistical convergence, c,1-summability and strong   n n, p -summability.

finding repetitive subsequences in genome is a challengeable problem in bioinformatics research area. a lot of approaches have been proposed to solve the problem, which could be divided to library base and de novo methods. the library base methods use predetermined repetitive genome’s subsequences, where library-less methods attempt to discover repetitive subsequences by analytical approaches. ...

background: stearoyl-coa desaturase (scd) is a key enzyme that converts saturated fatty acids (sfas) to monounsaturated fatty acids (mufas) in fat biosynthesis. despite being crucial for interpreting scds’ roles across species, the evolutionary relationship of scd proteins across species has yet to be elucidated. this study aims to present this evolutionary relationship based on amino acid sequ...
