We present a model for anchoring categorical conceptual information which originates from physical perception and the web. The model is an extension of the anchoring framework which is used to create and maintain over time semantically grounded sensor information. Using the augmented anchoring framework that employs complex symbolic knowledge from a commonsense knowledge base, we attempt to gro...

Background: We have previously reported the aberrant expression of Fibromodulin (FMOD) in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Although FMOD has been considered as a cytoplasmic or secretory protein, we discovered the cell surface expression of FMOD in leukemic B cells via anchoring with glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI). Objective: To evaluate FM...

A fundamental role for protein-protein interactions in the organization of signal transduction pathways is evident. Anchoring, scaffolding and adapter proteins function to enhance the precision and directionality of these signaling events by bringing enzymes together. The cAMP signaling pathway is organized by A-kinase anchoring proteins. This family of proteins assembles enzyme complexes conta...

One of the most notorious problems with ferroelectric liquid crystal is obtaining zigzag free bistable devices. By investigating the balance between surface azimuthal anchoring energy and bulk elastic energy within the confined chevron layer geometry of C1 and C2, we propose that it is possible to get a zigzag free C1 state by low azimuthal anchoring alignment at a low pretilt angle. The critic...

Psychologists have identified several limitations to, and biases in, human decision-making processes. One such bias is the anchoring and adjustment effect, which has been demonstrated to be robust both inside and outside the experimental Ž . laboratory. Some decision support systems DSS have been designed to lessen the effects of decision-making limitations with promising results. This study te...

This work provides a TAG account of gapping in English, based on a novel deletion-like operation that is referred to as de-anchoring. De-anchoring applies onto elementary trees, but it is licensed by the derivation tree in two ways. Firstly, de-anchored trees must be linked to the root of the derivation tree by a chain of adjunctions , and the sub-graph of de-anchored nodes in a derivation tree...

Trust and reciprocity have paramount importance in cooperative relationships. The influence of psychological effects such as framing anchoring on trust has been investigated; however, the impact an order effect them is still unexplored. goal our study was to examine how impacts by manipulating within- between-subjects factors, respectively. Different groups participants first completed two fram...
