In our modern technological world, Computer-Assisted Language learning (CALL) is a new realm towards learning a language in general, and learning L2 vocabulary in particular. It is assumed that the use of multimedia annotations promotes language learners’ vocabulary acquisition. Therefore, this study set out to investigate the effects of different multimedia annotations (still picture annotatio...

The context in which a name appears in a caption provides powerful cues as to who is depicted in the associated image. We obtain 44,773 face images, using a face detector, from approximately half a million captioned news images and automatically link names, obtained using a named entity recognizer, with these faces. A simple clustering method can produce fair results. We improve these results s...

DENOUEMENT AND DISCUSSION PARAPHIMOSIS Paraphimosis is an urologic emergency that results when the foreskin is retracted away from the glans penis and cannot be reduced to its former position. ...

If a concept is not well defined, it can be abused. This is particularly true of complexity, an inherently interdisciplinary concept that has penetrated a range of intellectual fields from physics to linguistics, but with no underlying, unified theory. Complexity has become a popular buzzword that is used in the hope of gaining attention or funding — institutes and research networks associated ...

The paper presents a relatively complete proof system for proving the validity of temporal properties of reactive programs. The presented proof system improves on previous temporal systems, in that it reduces the validity of program properties into pure assertional reasoning, not involving additional temporal reasoning. The proof system is based on the classiication of temporal properties accor...

During the first half of the contract year, the program continued the following studies: speech analysis by linear prediction, digital frequency warping, development of a high speed digital processor for speech synthesis, and the design of two-dimensional recursive digital filters. These projects are summarized in the following pages and reprints of available publications are appended.

Certain scholars have generalized the theory of fuzzy set, but picture hesitant set (PHFS) has received massive attention from distinguished scholars. PHFS is combination (PFS) and (HFS) to cope with awkward complicated information in real-life issues. The well-known characteristic that sum maximum membership, abstinence, non-membership degree limited unit interval. This manuscript aims develop...
