    Marlowe\u27s Ovid: The \u22Elegies\u22 in the Marlowe Canon

    No full text
    The first book of its kind, Marlowe’s Ovid explores and analyzes in depth the relationship between the Elegies-Marlowe’s translation of Ovid’s Amores-and Marlowe’s own dramatic and poetic works. Stapleton carefully considers Marlowe’s Elegies in the context of his seven known dramatic works and his epyllion, Hero and Leander, and offers a different way to read Marlowe. Stapleton employs Marlowe’s rendition of the Amores as a way to read his seven dramatic productions and his narrative poetry while engaging with previous scholarship devoted to the accuracy of the translation and to bibliographical issues. The author focuses on four main principles: the intertextual relationship of the Elegies to the rest of the author’s canon; its reflection of the influence of Erasmian humanist pedagogy, imitatio and aemulatio; its status as the standard English Amores until the Glorious Revolution, part of the larger phenomenon of pan-European Renaissance Ovidianism; its participation in the genre of the sonnet sequence. He explores how translating the Amores into the Elegies profited Marlowe as a writer, a kind of literary archaeology that explains why he may have commenced such an undertaking. Marlowe’s Ovid adds to the body of scholarly work in a number of subfields, including classical influences in English literature, translation, sexuality in literature, early modern poetry and drama, and Marlowe and his milieu

    Differential Acquisition of m-Sequences using Recursive Soft Sequential Estimation

    No full text
    In this contribution a novel sequential estimation method is proposed for the acquisition of mm-sequences. This sequential estimation method exploits the principle of iterative soft-in-soft-out (SISO) decoding for enhancing the acquisition performance, and that of differential pre-processing for the sake of achieving an enhanced acquisition performance, when communicating over various communication environments. Hence the advocated acquisition arrangement is referred to as the Differential Recursive Soft Sequential Estimation (DRSSE) acquisition scheme. The DRSSE acquisition scheme exhibits a low complexity, which is similar to that of an mm-sequence generator, while achieving an acquisition time that is linearly dependent on the number of stages in the mm-sequence generator. A low acquisition time is achieved with the advent of the property that the proposed DRSSE scheme is capable of determining the real-time reliabilities associated with the decision concerning a set of, say SS, consecutive chips. This set of consecutive chips constitutes the sufficient initial condition for enabling the local mm-sequence generator to produce a synchronized local despreading mm-sequence replica. Owing to these attractive characteristics, the DRSSE acquisition scheme constitutes a promising initial synchronization scheme for acquisition of long mm-sequences, when communicating over various propagation environments

    We prove here the following equation: ∑_(l+m=k,l,m≥0) ((α+l-1)¦l) ((β+m-1)¦m)=((α+β+k-1)¦k) and give its application to prove the reproductive property of the negative binomial distribution. These finite sum equation involving binomial coefficients and proof of the reproductive property are not known as far as the author knows.論文(Article)departmental bulletin pape

    Breaking the Waves: Beyond Parity and Complementarity in the Arguments for Extended Cognition

    No full text
    First paragraph: According to the hypothesis of extended cognition (henceforth ExC), the physical machinery of mind sometimes extends beyond the skull and skin. More precisely, there are actual (in this world) cases of intelligent thought and action, in which the material vehicles that realize the thinking and thoughts concerned are spatially distributed over brain, body and world, in such a way that certain external (beyond-the-skin) elements (paradigmatically, technological devices) are rightly accorded fundamentally the same status (i.e., cognitive status) as would ordinarily be accorded to a subset of your neurons. So, if ExC is true, then sometimes your mobile phone isn’t just an external information storage device that saves your poor old brain the trouble of storing all those phone numbers (although it is that), it is also literally part of your memory, and thus part of your mind, in the sense that it’s part of your mnemonic machinery

    Prediction of blueberry sensory texture attributes by integrating multiple instrumental measurements

    No full text
    Blueberry (Vaccinium spp.) texture contributes to consumer satisfaction, shelf-life, and machine harvestability and is now a critical goal in breeding for new fresh market cultivars. The industry commonly uses instrumental methods to phenotype texture, assuming that instrumental measurements correlate with sensory perceptions. However, the relationship between perceived sensory textures and mechanical parameters is not well established. In this study, we characterized the fruit texture profile of 43 blueberry cultivars using nine sensory descriptors and determined the predictability of the sensory attributes using mechanical parameters. The sensory study was done by a trained descriptive sensory analysis panel, and instrumental analysis was performed using flat probe penetration and texture profile analysis (TPA) methods. Differences in the perceived firmness of blueberries were mainly due to springiness, hardness, and snap/crisp attributes. Among the mechanical parameters, maximum force (FM; a flat probe penetration parameter) and gumminess (a TPA parameter) had the strongest correlations with these three sensory attributes. To develop predictive models for the nine sensory attributes, multivariate statistical methods were used. The highest level of prediction accuracy was achieved when all the penetration or TPA parameters were used for model development. The R2 values increased by up to 0.66 compared to using a single mechanical parameter. Springiness, hardness, and snap/crisp were predictable with R2 &gt; 0.5, regardless of the instrumental method used. TPA parameters were more suitable for predicting juiciness while residual skin was only predictable using penetration parameters. Mealiness was not predictable with any instrumental measure (R2 &lt; 0.05). For most of the sensory attributes, the models were able to effectively discern the cultivars with the highest or lowest intensity scores. This study provides a basis for breeding programs to utilize improved estimations of the sensorial texture using diverse mechanical parameters to enhance selection for desired blueberry texture
