This paper addresses some problems about the semantics of two groups of transitive verbs that are intensional in certain ways. One group is that of creation verbs, such as ‘assemble’, ‘bake’, ‘build’, and ‘manufacture’. The other is that of depiction verbs, such as ‘draw’, ‘sketch’, ‘caricature’, ‘sculpt’, ‘write (about)’, ‘imagine’, and ‘fantasize’. Depiction verbs, and creation verbs in the p...

Purpose: To evaluate the quality of three-dimensional (3D) CT angiography images of the abdominal viscera with small focal spot, low tube voltage, and iterative model reconstruction technique (IMR). Materials and Methods: Seven patients with suspected disease of the pancreatobiliary system had undergone CT with high-quality CTA protocol in the present study. There were 5 men and 2 women, rangin...

This thesis proposes several new perceptually-motivated techniques to synthesize, edit and enhance depiction of three-dimensional virtual scenes. Finding algorithms that fit the perceptually economic middle ground between artistic depiction and full physical simulation is the challenge taken in this work. First, we will present three interactive global illumination rendering approaches that are...

Repetition is one of the most basic operations on talk, often discussed for its iconic meanings. Ideophones are marked words that depict sensory imagery, often identified by their reduplicated forms. Yet not all reduplication is iconic, and not all ideophones are reduplicated. This paper discusses the semantics and pragmatics of repeated talk with special reference to ideophones. To understand ...

From graphic design to stock market predictions, applications offtactal geometry permeate fields in every way. The depiction offtactals also has substantial artistic intrigue. Mathematical graphs displaying multiple dimensions of self-similarity reveal highly evocative perceptions of depth and design. Such a fascination in sight can also be perceived in sound. This n:searclt explains the depict...

In speech research using real-time magnetic resonance imaging (RT-MRI), frame reconstruction is typically performed with a constant temporal resolution. However, a flexible selection of temporal resolution is desirable because of natural variations in speaking rate and variations in the speed of different articulators. In this work, a novel spiral golden-ratio temporal view order was applied to...

There are various models of retrieval mechanisms for effective video retrieval, however, ‘semantic gap’ still persists. This study aims to reduce the gap by providing a graphical user interface that allows user to express the visuals in their mind into a query using semantic association of spatial and temporal visual concepts. To accomplish this, we have developed a video content depiction sche...

Abstract This article looks at cross-linguistic variation in lexical iconicity, addressing the question of to what extent and how this is patterned. More than spoken languages, iconicity highly frequent lexicons sign languages. It also complex, that often multiple motivated components jointly shape an iconic lexeme. Recent typological research on languages finds tentative patterning a large num...
