We set out to empirically identify the range and frequency of basic verb alternation types in Japanese, through analysis of the Goi-Taikei Japanese pattern-based valency dictionary. This is achieved through comparison of the selectional preference annotation on corresponding case slots, based on the assumption that selectional preferences are preserved under alternation. Three separate extracti...

In this paper, stability of the optimal solution of stochastic programs with recourse with respect to parameters of the given distribution of random coefficients is studied. Provided that the set of admissible solutions is defined by equa[ity constraints only, asymptotical normality of the optimal solution follows by standard methods, If nonnegativity constraints are taken into account the prob...

It is shown that Ramanujan could have proved a special case of his conjecture that his tau function is multiplicative without any recourse to modularity results.

the task of optimally assigning military ordinance to enemy targets, often termed weapon target allocation (wta) problem, has become a major focus of modern military thought where a cost effective allocation is required without degrading the required kill performance. the paper presents three main weapon allocation techniques namely uniform weapon allocation, first-in-first weapon allocation an...
