The theory of respectively interpretation proposed in Yatabe and Tam (2021) "In defense an HPSG-based non-constituent coordination" (Linguistics Philosophy 44, pp. 1-77) entails that Binding Conditions A B need to be formulated as constraints on the form semantic representations. It is possible formulate two binding conditions such if anaphoric relations are encoded representations a way analog...

Microorganisms can be important biosorbents for heavy metal remediation of contaminated soils and wastewaters.With different types and concentrations of heavy metals, strains display different resistance and removal abilities to the heavy metals. In the present study, biosorption of Pb(II) was carried out using Aspergillus niger NCIM 616 and also studied the effect of paramaters such as pH, tem...

I develop theory about two kinds of individual level integration expertise, portable and local. I discuss the implications of the difference between these kinds of expertise for the management of knowledge in complex integrative processes, and for the development of organizational flexibility. I define portable integration expertise as re-deployable from problem to problem, even though the prob...

This paper presents a new robust method for inertial MEM (MicroElectroMechanical systems) 3D gesture recognition. The linear acceleration and the angular velocity, respectively provided by the accelerometer and the gyrometer, are sampled in time resulting in 6D values at each time step which are used as inputs for the gesture recognition system. We propose to build a system based on Bidirection...

In this article, we establish a new phenomenon of "inattentional deafness" and highlight the level of load on visual attention as a critical determinant of this phenomenon. In three experiments, we modified an inattentional blindness paradigm to assess inattentional deafness. Participants made either a low- or high-load visual discrimination concerning a cross shape (respectively, a discriminat...

Progressive elimination of rabies in wildlife has been a general strategy in Canada and the United States; common campaign tactics are trap-vaccinate-release (TVR), point infection control (PIC), and oral rabies vaccination (ORV). TVR and PIC are labor intensive and the most expensive tactics per unit area (approximately $616/km(2) [in 2008 Can$, converted from the reported $450/km(2) in 1991 C...

Patients with atherosclerotic cerebrovascular disease were studied to determine the radiation exposure associated with conventional and digital subtraction angiography of the cerebral vessels. The median exposure-area product was 3198 R cm2 (range, 616-5665 R cm2) in the conventional angiography group and 1831 R cm2 (range, 366-4198 R cm2) in the IV digital subtraction angiography (DSA) group. ...
