Seeing or Not Seeing Your Conversational Partner: The Influence of Interaction Modality on Prosodic Entrainment
In speech entrainment research, a less investigated yet crucial aspect for modelling multimodal interactive dialogue systems is the influence of inter-action modality, i.e. whether conversational partners who are visible to each other would entrain their speech more with respect to when eye contact is inhibited, or not. In our study, we compared prosodic adaptation behaviour (convergence and synchrony) of the same speaker pairs involved in collaborative game sessions under two conditions: audiovisual vs audio-only interaction. Results provide a complex picture, with a tendency to vocal entrainment enhancement when the speech/audio channel is the only one available
De la proposition, la phrase et l'énoncé dans la vision des linguistes M. Ioniţă et M. Potapova aux types de prédication et a l'ambiguïté dans la phrase simple tautologique et dans la phrase complexe comparative
Abstract
In the article, the author undertakes a review of research by scientists M. Potapova and M. Ionita on sentence, phrase and utterance in order to submit further to analysis the types of predication in French and the ambiguity of a simple tautological phrase and a comparative compound one in this language.
Rezumat
În articol, autoarea îşi propune o retrospectivă a cercetărilor savanţilor M. Ioniţă şi M. Potapova asupra propoziţiei, frazei şi enunţului pentru a supune analizei, mai apoi, tipurile de predicaţie în franceză şi ambiguitatea frazei simple tautologice şi a celei compuse comparative în această limbă.Bondarenco, Ana.

Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1902-1907
In this second volume of Author Under Sail Jay Williams investigates the life of Jack London as a professional writer at the turn of the 1900s, as his publications spanned The Call of the Wild to The Iron Heel and The Road. While documenting key life events, especially his rising fame, this biography explores London's necessity to illustrate the inner workings of his own vast imagination through his socialist essays and fiction.Cover -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.

اسلم کولسری کی غزل:بیان و بدیع کے تناظر میں: ASLAM KOLSARY’S GHAZAL IN THE LIGHT OF BIAN-O-BADIE
Aslam kolsari is new significant and potentially well-known personality for contributing to modern Urdu ghazal. Being a mindful and multidimensional literary figure he has specific fame in poetry. A distinguish diction in poetry is individuality specifically connected with his name. His ghazal contains all attributes of Research and criticism. Communication of an ordinary concept in his poetry is reflection of Aslam kolasri. In this article the author has explored how poetic characteristics distinguished Aslam kolsari
Self-similar regimes in Unstably Stratified Homogeneous Turbulence
Unstably stratified homogeneous turbulence develops at late time a self-similar dynamics characterized by an exponential growth of turbulent quantities. It is believed from recent theoretical studies that different growth rates are possible, depending on the initial distribution of energy at large scales. In order to confirm these predictions, we run both highly resolved direct numerical simulations and a spectral model based on an eddy-damped quasi-normal closure. In addition to confirming the influence of initial conditions, our study sheds light on the anisotropic structures of the self-similar regimes
