We introduce the "$type{lffs}$ subdirect product" and show that every ring is uniquely a $type{lffs}$ subdirect product of a family of $simple{basicls}$ rings. Also we show some applications.

Gestalt psychology is often criticized as lacking quantitative measurements and precise mathematical models. While this is true of the early Gestalt school, today there are many quantitative approaches in Gestalt perception and the special issue of Vision Research "Quantitative Approaches in Gestalt Perception" showcases the current state-of-the-art. In this article we give an overview of these...

In this paper, we describe our system developed for the GErman SenTiment AnaLysis shared Task (GESTALT) for participation in the Maintask 2: Subjective Phrase and Aspect Extraction from Product Reviews.

Industrial Design lies at the interface between the aesthetic elements of styling and appearance, and the innovation which is driven by science and technology. It requires the application of knowledge from a multiplicity of interdependent disciplines. The teaching Industrial Design of at our university, favours the heuristic approach taking inspiration from the natural world[1], the creation of...

This paper discusses the compatibility ofMartin Buber’s dialogicmethod and active Gestalt therapy interventions, which are called experiments. The authors trace a brief history of the distinction between different psychotherapy systems which focus on the therapeutic relationship on the one hand or on active behavioural interventions on the other. They submit Gestalt therapy as a modality that i...

Pyridinium based ionic liquids derived from β-picoline and n-alkylbromides were synthesized by a simple procedure at ambient temperature and then characterized. These neutral ionic liquids were investigated for their dual role as the solvent and promoter for the selective synthesis of a series of N-monomethylanilines using dimethylcarbonate as the methylating agent. A solvent free gree...

Wertheimer's seminal paper of 1923 was of gerat influence in psychology and other sciences. Wertheimer also emphasized the weaknesses of the newborn Gestalt theory: too many basic laws, and the ambiguity of definitions. At the same time, the paper contained potential solutions to these problems, in the form of a number of very important ideas, some of which were presented implicitly: perception...
