Genes in the germline (micronuclear) genome of hypotrichous ciliates are interrupted by multiple, short, non-coding, AT-rich sequences called internal eliminated segments, or IESs. During conversion of a micronucleus to a somatic nucleus (macronucleus) after cell mating, all IESs are excised from the germline genes and the gene segments, called macronuclear-destined segments, or MDSs, are splic...

When preserving CD-ROM discs, data sectors are often read in a so-called “scrambled mode” order to preserve as much possible. This scrambled is later unscrambled and further processed into standard disc image. The process of converting the image potentially lossy, but images exhibit higher software compatibility have greater usability compared from which they derived. Consequently, for preserva...

Park Computer Laboratory University of Cambridge Cambridge, CB2 3QG, U.K. [email protected] Abstract Synchronous Tree Adjoining Grammars can be used for Machine Translation. However, translating a free order language such as Korean to English is complicated. I present a mechanism t...

Just as syntax differentiates coherent sentences from scrambled word strings, sequential images must also use a cognitive system to distinguish coherent narratives from random strings of images. We conducted experiments analogous to two classic psycholinguistic studies to examine structure and semantics in sequential images. We compared Normal comic strips with both structure and meaning to seq...

Brain-imaging studies have found distinct spatial and temporal patterns of response to different object categories across the brain. However, the extent to which these categorical patterns of response reflect higher-level semantic or lower-level visual properties of the stimulus remains unclear. To address this question, we measured patterns of EEG response to intact and scrambled images in the...

We apply techniques of natural language processing to support the creation of special scrambled sentences that allow only specific word orders. The scrambled sentences are useful for students to practice their knowledge about grammars. It takes two steps to create a test item for scrambled-sentence tests. We create a set of grammatical alternative sentences from the target sentence, and make su...
