The Relationship Between Pretend Play and Playfulness in Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder
No full textAbstract
Date Presented 3/30/2017
This study explored the relationship between pretend play and playfulness in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Our findings suggest that it is important to assist children with ASD to engage in pretend play, for doing so could promote their internal experience of playfulness.

The nomenclature of the lycophyte species Phlegmariurus mingcheensis Ching (Huperziaceae)
No full textIn 1982, Ren Chang Ching twice described the same lycophyte species under the names Lycopodium mingcheense (published in April; the original "minchegense" spelling being a correctable error) and Phlegmariurus mingcheensis Ching (published in May). Phlegmariurus mingcheensis cannot be taken as a combination based on Lycopodium mingcheense because in the original publication a different holotype was indicated and the name Lycopodium mingcheense was not mentioned. The correct names for this species in Huperzia, Lycopodium, and Phlegmariurus are Huperzia mingcheensis (Ching) Holub (basionym: Phlegmariurus mingcheensis), Lycopodium mingcheense Ching, and Phlegmariurus mingcheensis Ching, respectively. The recent lectotypification of the name Lycopodium mingcheense using P.S. Chiu 2069 (PE) was redundant since this specimen was clearly indicated as the holotype in Ching's original publication. The recent new name Phlegmariurus mingjoui X.C. Zhang is an illegitimate superfluous name

The political role of the people's liberation army 1949-1973
Get PDFThis thesis is to study the political role of the People's Liberation Army from the approach of structure and function. The framework of the thesis consists of three major parts, first, the influence of Chinese traditional political culture on, and the formation of, the political role of the PL A; second, the influence of domestic political struggles and external military conflicts on the development of the political role of the PLA; and the third, the analysis of the transition of the PLA's political role from the structure and personnel arrangements of the CCPCC Within the above-mentioned three scopes, this thesis make a thorough discussion on the following: (1) The relationship between the structure of the PRC and the formation of the PLA's political role; (2) How has ideology influenced the army's political role; (3) What is Mao's viewpoint and his influence on the development of the army's political role; (4) What is the link between the army and the party, and how has this developed; (6) What accounts for the expansion of the PLA's political functions; (7) What is the influence of political factional struggles on the PLA's political role; (8) Is it political institution or military institution that controls the recruitment of the military elite; (9) What are the disparities between the military elite in handling international conflicts and what are their political considerations; (10) What is the Party's position in the army; (11) How have the Party’s important meetings and personnel arrangements influenced the rise and fall of the PLA's political role

Abstract
In this paper, we propose a novel deep dilated convolutional neural network (DDCNN) architecture to reconstruct periodic rough surfaces, including their periodic length, dielectric constant, and shape. Historically, rough surface problems were addressed through optimization algorithms. However, these algorithms are computationally intensive, making the process very time-consuming. To resolve this issue, we provide measured scattered fields as training data for the DDCNN to reconstruct the periodic length, dielectric constant, and shape. The numerical results demonstrate that DDCNN can accurately reconstruct rough surface images under high noise levels. In addition, we also discuss the impacts of the periodic length and dielectric constant of the rough surface on the shape reconstruction. Notably, our method achieves excellent reconstruction results compared to DCNN even when the period and dielectric coefficient are unknown. Finally, it is worth mentioning that the trained network model completes the reconstruction process in less than one second, realizing efficient real-time imaging.補正完畢US
Biological control of Diaphorina citri in Taiwan
No full textThe Citrus psylla, Diaphorina citri, is a vector of Citrus Likubin in Taiwan. It was reported to be effectively controlled by its nymphal parasitoid, Tamarixia radiate in Reunion Island. Taiwan Agricultural Research Institute introduced the parasitoid from Reunion Island for the control of Citrus psylla in order to reduce the transmission of Citrus Likubin. Sixty four adults of T. radiata obtained from Reunion in 1983-1986 were quarantined, propagated and released to the fields. Results revealed that T. radiate has successfully established in Taiwan. The competition between the introduced T. radiata and the indigenous Diaphorencyrtus diaphorinae, and their relationship to hyperparasitoids were also investigated
