Common sense suggests that networks are not random mazes of purposeless connections, but that these connections are organized so that networks can perform their functions well. One function common to many networks is targeted transport or navigation. Here, using game theory, we show that minimalistic networks designed to maximize the navigation efficiency at minimal cost share basic structural ...

In the following paper we describe the evolution of the Semantic Web area throughout the years, with a special focus on the most recent years. We present how the picture of the Semantic Web has gradually changed from a very idealistic vision to a more realistic scenario. The assumption shall be backed up with both examples from the state of the art in the Semantic Web research and commercializa...

The purpose of this paper is to study semirings and its ideals by neutrosophic soft sets. After noting some preliminary ideas for subsequent use in Section 1 and 2, I have introduced and studied neutrosophic soft semiring, neutrosophic soft ideals, idealistic neutrosophic soft semiring, regular (intra-regular) neutrosophic soft semiring along with some of their characterizations in Section 3 an...

We present a method for improving word alignment for statistical syntax-based machine translation that employs a syntactically informed alignment model closer to the translation model than commonly-used word alignment models. This leads to extraction of more useful linguistic patterns and improved BLEU scores on translation experiments in Chinese and Arabic. 1 Methods of statistical MT Roughly ...

Molodtsov [8] introduced the concept of soft set as a new mathematical tool for dealing with uncertainties that is free from the difficulties that have troubled the usual theoretical approaches. In this paper we apply the notion of soft sets by Molodtsov to the theory of BCK-algebras. The notions of positive implicative soft ideals and positive implicative idealistic soft BCK-algebras are intro...

How do you think the June 4th movement of 1989 will be remembered----as another May 4th 1919, the threshold of a period of general political awakening and turbulence, or instead as a Chinese version of 1848 or 1968 in Europe: a last spontaneous explosion of idealistic revolt, followed by a headlong pursuit of material consumption, and complacent institutional stabilization----the very opposite ...

The sales and use of electric vehicles (EVs) have been growing in recent times Europe, with the hopes mitigating CO2 emissions enabling more sustainable transportation. Considering growth EV market, main goal this research is to shed light on what drives vehicles' satisfaction continuance intention. We collected data from 290 drivers Europe. Grounded task-technology fit model expectation-confir...
