A unified database framework that will enable better comprehension of ranked XML retrieval is still a challenge in the XML database field. We propose a logical algebra, named score region algebra, that enables transparent specification of information retrieval (IR) models for XML databases. The transparency is achieved by a possibility to instantiate various retrieval models, using abstract sco...

Science Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cognitive and memory deterioration, as well as changes in personality, behavioral disturbances and an impaired ability to perform activities of daily living. AD is known to be the most common type of dementia. Despite decades of intensive research, the precise etiology of AD remains elusive. The majori...

How capitalist organizations ensure the obedience of its members has long been a matter of discussion. Behind the idealism of “market freedom” lie more troubling realities of daily subordination and ideologies of conformity. Increasingly scholars have studied the effect of subjugating subjectivities present in capitalist production. Two specific features of modern capitalism have been the utili...

Four different accounts of the relationship between third-person mindreading and first-person metacognition are compared and evaluated. While three of them endorse the existence of introspection for propositional attitudes, the fourth (defended here) claims that our knowledge of our own attitudes results from turning our mindreading capacities upon ourselves. Section 1 introduces the four accou...

This conducted analyze translation performed by one well-known machine translation, Translate. data collected from seven traditional Balinese folktales chosen random via online, namely Manik Angkeran, Kebo Iwa, Lubdaka, Tampaksiring, Origin Bali, Singaraja, and Pan Balang Tamak. on terms t...

The paper deals with a numerical analusis for the seismic response of reinforced concrete structures containing cable elements. The cable behaviour is considered as nonconvex and nonmonotone one and is described by generalized subdifferential relations including loosening, elastoplastic fracturing etc. effects. The problem is treated incrementally by double discretization: in space by finite el...

Previous work has demonstrated that gesture production is affected by common ground (shared background knowledge). For example, studies have demonstrated that new information gets larger, clearer gestures while old/shared information gets smaller, less precise gestures (Gerwing & Bavelas, 2004); new information is likely to be expressed in gesture (with or without speech) while shared informati...
