ions, it is arguable that his own level of abstraction and technicality makes his work difficult to translate in to anything other than a most general political programme. On the other hand, it may be precisely this 'difficulty' that enables Whitehead's work to be such a rich and influential resource for other critics.3 There is no question for example, as I will be discussing below, of the imp...

This study empirically analyzes factors affecting the adoption and recommendation intentions for next-generation electronic authentication services based on a convergent model of value-based (VAM), protection motivation theory (PMT), planned behavior (TPB). As result analyses, perceived benefits sacrifices (based VAM), threats PMT), motives TPB) are found to significantly impact intentions. The...

While measuring the readability of texts has been a long-standing research topic, assessing the technicality of terms has only been addressed more recently and mostly for the English language. In this paper, we train a learning-to-rank model to determine a specialization degree for each term found in a given list. Since no training data for this task exist for French, we train our system with n...

AIM This paper is a report of a study conducted to examine how nurses represent professional clinical decision-making processes, and to determine what light Jamous and Peloille's 'Indeterminacy/Technicality ratio' concept can shed on these representations. BACKGROUND Classic definitions of professional work feature autonomy of decision-making and control over the field of work. Sociologists J...

Suppose that Z is a subsystem of both, X and Y . Under some conditions, we can regard the given translation from X to Y as an embedding of Z into Y . What we shall be concerned with in this paper is to give a set of such conditions. The potential reader of this paper might be both philosophy and mathematics–minded. (Its technicality is very mild.) We shall give some simple example. The followin...

Text classification plays a central role in software systems which perform automatic information classification and retrieval. Occurrences of linguistic feature values must be counted by any mechanism that classifies or characterizes natural language text by topic, style, genre or, in our case, by the degree to which a text is technical. We discuss the methodology and key details of the feature...

Many computations in the harmonic analysis of automorphic forms, especially concerning Eisenstein series, or, even worse, trace formulas, expose one to the danger that a naive formal approach leads to incorrect manipulation of expressions whose convergence is fragile or even volatile. At the same time it is often clear that some improved formalism can be correct, and may be more intelligible th...
