The paper deals with a novelty tool for symbolic regression – Analytic Programming (AP) which is able to solve various problems from the symbolic regression domain. One of tasks for it can be setting an optimal trajectory for artificial ant on Santa Fe trail which is main application of Analytic Programming in this paper. In this contribution main principles of AP are described and explained. I...

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are one of the best ever growing areas of research. By providing communications in the absence of fixed infrastructure MANETs are an attractive technology. However this edibility introduces new security threats. The traditional way of protecting networks is not directly applicable to MANETs. Many conventional security solutions are ineffective and inefficient for...

the most important and practical phase of analyzing the linguistic errors of second language learners is to find the solutions to decrease these errors. to that end, the present study examined translation strategy to decrease the number of grammatical and lexical errors of chinese language learners learning persian. twelve chinese language learners were asked to write a text in two stages. firs...

GENR8 is an architect’s design tool that generates surfaces. It is powerful and innovative because it fuses expressively powerful universes of growth languages with evolutionary search. Developed via the API of Alias|Wavefront’s Maya, it combines 3D map L-systems, that are extended to an abstract physical environment, with Grammatical Evolution. GENR8 addresses key issues arising from exploitin...

In this paper it is emphasized that human language has two rather different dimensions corresponding to two different language systems: lexical/semantic and grammatical. These two language systems are supported by different brain structures (temporal and frontal), and based in different learning strategies (declarative and procedural). In cases of brain pathology, each one can be independently ...

Unlike Lexical Projections, Functional Projections (Extended Projections) are more of an ‘abstract’ in nature. Therefore, Functional Projections seem to be acquired later than Lexical Projections by the L2 learners. The present study investigates Iranian L2 learners’ acquisition of English Extended Projections taking into account their level of grammatical proficiency. Specifically, the aim is ...

Systemic functional grammar constructs a grammar for the purpose of text analysis to investigate how grammar is used as a means of making meaning. Grammatical metaphor is one of the language phenomena introduced by Halliday (2004) in the framework of functional grammar. The present work focuses on the application of Halliday’s metafunctional framework in health texts of English newspapers. The ...

Frequencies and discourse functions of grammatical subject types were investigated in a corpus of forty results and discussion sections selected from four disciplines (Applied Linguistics, Psychology, Chemistry, and Environmental Engineering). The results and discussion sections were selected from research articles that were published in 2008-2012 issues of prestigious high journals of ...
