‎let $g_{i} $ be a subgroup of $ s_{m_{i}}‎ ,‎ 1 leq i leq k$‎. ‎suppose $chi_{i}$ is an irreducible complex character of $g_{i}$‎. ‎we consider $ g_{1}times cdots times g_{k} $ as subgroup of $ s_{m} $‎, ‎where $ m=m_{1}+cdots‎ +‎m_{k} $‎. ‎in this paper‎, ‎we give a formula for the dimension of $h_{d}(g_{1}times cdots times g_{k}‎, ‎chi_{1}timescdots times chi_{k})$ and investigate the existe...

Characters are considered central to works of fiction and essential to our enjoyment of them. We conducted an exploratory study to examine whether the ability to sketch engaging fictional characters is influenced by a writer’s attributes. Samples of 93 Creative Writers and 114 Non-Writers generated character descriptions based on a portrait photograph. We measured Participants' experiences with...

Artificial Intelligence for interactive characters is held back by the difficulty of actually creating those characters. There is a need for intuitive tools which simplify the process of building complex AI characters. In this paper, we present BehaviorShop, a tool for building interactive characters, and the results of a study to test the effectiveness and ease of use of this tool. The majorit...

Written Chinese is distinct from alphabetic languages because of its enormous number of characters with a great range of spatial complexities (stroke numbers). In this study we investigated the impact of spatial complexity on legibility of Chinese characters as well as associated crowding in peripheral vision. Our results showed that for isolated characters, threshold sizes of complex character...

The genera Ustilago, Sporisorium and Macalpinomyces are a polyphyletic complex of plant pathogenic fungi. The four main morphological characters used to define these genera have been considered homoplasious and not useful for resolving the complex. This study re-evaluates character homology and discusses the use of these characters for defining monophyletic groups recovered from a reconstructed...

Pediomelum is a genus endemic to North America comprising about 26 species, including the megalanthum complex, which consists of Pediomelummegalanthum and its varieties retrorsum and megalanthum, Pediomelummephiticum, and the recently described Pediomelumverdiense and Pediomelumpauperitense. Historically, species of the megalanthum complex have been variably recognized at the species or variety...

A novel approach for recognition of handwritten compound Bangla characters, along with the Basic characters of Bangla alphabet, is presented here. Compared to English like Roman script, one of the major stumbling blocks in Optical Character Recognition (OCR) of handwritten Bangla script is the large number of complex shaped character classes of Bangla alphabet. In addition to 50 basic character...
