Pattern-Responsive Lexicon Optimization
No full textIn this paper, we show that current interpretations of Lexicon Optimization (Prince and Smolensky 1993), in particular that of Archiphonemic Underspecification (Inkelas 1995), incorrectly predict the distribution of underspecification in lexical entries. We present cases from three vowel harmony languages in which speakers treat harmonic and disharmonic roots differently under reduplication. The assumption of full specification entails a ranking paradox, which can be resolved if underspecification is admitted in certain contexts not predicted by the principles of Lexicon Optimization. We point the way towards an expanded model of Lexicon Optimization that would both allow for and predict such cases of underspecification.The definitive version of this paper was published in NELS 30: Proceedings of the North East Linguistic Society 30 (2000) and is available at http://glsa.hypermart.net/cgi-bin/list.cgi?NELS%NELS30%5%NFunding for fieldwork was provided by the International Research and Exchanges Board (IREX).Harrison, David K. & Kaun A.

Physiological effects of localised heating pulses in brain slices
No full textRapid localised heating (<100ms) was achieved in rat
hippocampal brain slices by millisecond exposures to
radiofrequency (RF) fields, using a metal stimulating electrode to
focus the energy into the tissue. This produced very high specific absorption rates (>5MW·kg-1) in the tissue near the tip of the electrode. Electrophysiological recordings of evoked responses were made to characterise the physiological effects of the heating pulses
Measurement of the ratio of branching fractions B(B0→K∗0γ )/B(B0s→φγ ) and the directCP asymmetry inB 0→K∗0γ
No full textThe ratio of branching fractions of the radiative B decays B0→K⁎0γ and B0s→ϕγ has been measured using an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb−1 of pp collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of s√=7TeV. The value obtained is
B(B0→K⁎0γ)B(B0s→ϕγ)=1.23±0.06(stat.)±0.04(syst.)±0.10(fs/fd),
where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is the experimental systematic uncertainty and the third is associated with the ratio of fragmentation fractions fs/fd. Using the world average value for B(B0→K⁎0γ), the branching fraction B(B0s→ϕγ) is measured to be (3.5±0.4)×10−5.
The direct CP asymmetry in B0→K⁎0γ decays has also been measured with the same data and found to be
ACP(B0→K⁎0γ)=(0.8±1.7(stat.)±0.9(syst.))%.
Both measurements are the most precise to date and are in agreement with the previous experimental results and theoretical expectations
Extracting the K best solutions from a valued and-or acyclic graph
No full textThesis (M. Eng.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2007.This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Includes bibliographical references (p. 117-118).In this thesis, we are interested in solving a problem that arises in model-based programming, specifically in the estimation of the state a system described by a probabilistic model. Some model-based estimators, such as the MEXEC algorithm and the DNNF-based Belief State Estimation algorithm, use a valued and-or acyclic graph to represent the possible estimates. These algorithms specifically use a valued smooth deterministic decomposable negation normal form (sd-DNNF) representation, a type of and-or acyclic graph. Prior work has focused on extracting either all or only the best solution from the sd-DNNF. This work develops an efficient algorithm that is able to extract the k best solutions, where k is a parameter to the algorithm. For a graph with -E- edges, -V - nodes and -Ev- children per non-leaf node, the algorithm presented in this thesis has a time complexity of O(-E-k log k +-E- log -Ev-+-V -k log -Ev-) and a space complexity O(-E-k).by Paul Harrison Elliott.M.Eng

When Languages Die: The Extinction Of The World\u27s Languages And The Erosion Of Human Knowledge
No full textIn When Languages Die, K. David Harrison illustrates the individual face of language loss, as well as its global scale. Languages are the accretion of thousands of years of a people\u27s science and art - from observations of ecological patterns to creation myths. The author shows that the disappearance of a language is a loss not only for the community of speakers itself but also for our common human knowledge of mathematics, biology, geography, philosophy, agriculture, and linguistics. In this century, we face a massive erosion of the human knowledge base. The global abandonment of indigenous languages will bring a massive loss of accumulated knowledge and culture - this book argues for the irreplaceable nature of these unique knowledge systems and the urgency of documenting them before they are lost forever
First observation of the decay Bs0→K*0K*0
No full textThe first observation of the decay B0s→K∗0K∗0 is reported using 35 pb−1 of data collected by LHCb in proton–proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. A total of 49.8±7.5 B0s→(K+π−)(K−π+) events are observed within ±50 MeV/c2 of the B0s mass and 746 MeV/c2 < mKπ < 1046 MeV/c2, mostly coming from a resonant B0s→K∗0K∗0 signal. The branching fraction and the CP-averaged K∗0 longitudinal polarization fraction are measured to be B(B0s→K∗0K∗0)=(2.81±0.46(stat.)±0.45(syst.)±0.34(fs/ fd))×10−5 and fL =0.31±0.12(stat.)±0.04(syst.)
