640 samples in quadrates of 0.5 x m obtained by systematic sampling method were evaluated. Samplings made two repetitions GA (old), GB (young), GC (medium-aged), and GD (irregular) stand types, on north south aspects. Field studies carried out 4 different periods (June, July, August, September) within the vegetation period. 122 plant taxa determined at level species intraspecific taxa. While 48...

Graph unification is the most expensive part of unification-based grammar parsing. It often takes over 90% of the total parsing time of a sentence. We focus on two speed-up elements in the design of unification algorithms: 1) elimination of excessive copying by only copying successful unifications, 2) Finding unification failures as soon as possible. We have developed a scheme to attain these t...

This section contains a review of physical fundamentals and results of practical implementation of methods of nondestructive testing (NDT) and evaluation. It also presents relevant information on magnetic, electrical, eddy current, HF electromagnetic, infrared, optical, acoustic, radiographic, penetrant and other (such as vibration, leakage testing and integrated) methods of NDT and evaluation ...

The results of functional analyses suggested that the destructive behavior of two individuals was sensitive to escape and attention as reinforcement. In an instructional context, we evaluated the effects of reinforcing compliance with functional reinforcers when destructive behavior produced a break. For one participant we also evaluated the effects of reinforcing compliance with functional rei...

We assess the feasibility of using airborne imagery for Buffel grass detection in Australian arid lands and evaluate four commonly used image classification techniques (visual estimate, manual digitisation, unsupervised classification and normalised difference vegetation index (NDVI) thresholding) for their suitability to this purpose. Colour digital aerial photography captured at approximately...
