Minority languages of China
This chapter looks at language endangerment in the People's Republic of China, focusing on three of the main factors that influence language maintenance in China today: increased contact due to population movements and changes in the economy; the population policies of the government, particularly the identification of nationalities and languages; and the education system, particularly bilingual education. Finally, we give a brief account of the major efforts to document endangered languages
The role of migration and language contact in the development of the Sino-Tibetan language family
Characteristics of the Chinese vocabulary learning process of advanced native English speaking students
Language learning goes from input to output, and during this process the learners’ developing language is referred to as "interlanguage". This thesis investigates this process from a second language teacher's point of view, starting from the learners’ output - their "feedback". The method employed is to analyse the results of a survey of word usage errors committed by advanced native English speaking learners of Chinese in writing compositions, and categorise the errors according to type. Contrastive analysis of the two languages, and interlanguage theory is used to deduce the reasons for these errors and the roles played by the native language and the target language in their learning strategies. The general features of advanced learners' interlanguage in their vocabulary usage are described, the phenomenon of regression, or increased dependency on the mother tongue in particular aspects of the learning process, is noted and reasons for this suggested. It is concluded that there are objective and subjective reasons for these errors, and that improvements to textbooks, learning strategies and teaching methods should help to alleviate the difficulties students presently experience in vocabulary usage at the advanced stage and allow their learning process to progress more smoothly
Circadian rhythm and melatonin in liver carcinogenesis: updates on current findings
: Liver cancer, including hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma, can be devastating if not treated early. The risk factors of liver cancer include alcoholic liver disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, disruption of melatonin levels, and dysregulated circadian rhythm. The circadian rhythm is a 24-hour biological clock that regulates the physiological activities at both central and peripheral levels. Its molecular mechanism exists in every cell in mammals. Disruption of the circadian rhythm has found in liver cancers as an independent risk factor. This review summarized the most recent findings about the molecular mechanisms of circadian rhythm, the crosstalk between core clock genes and melatonin, as well as the role of circadian rhythm and melatonin played in chronic liver diseases and liver cancer. Finally, we discussed the potential clinical application of circadian rhythm and melatonin for the treatment of liver cancer and discussed future perspectives of how understanding the circadian rhythm in liver cancer progression could provide new clinical applications for liver cancer treatment and diagnosis

A Study on the mathematics textbooks in the era of the Great Han Empire
이 글은 갑오경장(1894)과 경술 국치(1910) 사이에 간행된 산학(수학) 교재류의 목록을 확인하고, 각 텍스트의 출판과 관련된 사항, 소장처, 이본 등의 서지적 정보와 함께 이 시기 산학 교재류의 국어사 자료로서의 의의를 언어 사용 상의 측면에 초점을 두어 정리하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이는 현대 한국어 태동기의 분과 학문의 도입 양상에 대한 연구의 일환인 한편, 학술 용어의 번역과 정착을 중심으로 이 시기의 한국어의 어휘 확장 양상을 확인하는 데에 필요한 기초 자료를 정리하는 작업의 한 부분이다. 본 연구에 앞선 산학(수학) 교재류에 대한 연구로는 산학 교재류의 서지 사항에 대해 기술한 강윤호(1973:187-199), 김봉희(1992:247-253), 한길준(2009), 오채환 외(2010) 등이 있고, 한국 수학사를 기술하면서 교재류를 함께 다룬 것으로 김용운·김용국(1982)와 이상구(2013)이 있다.This paper aims to make a whole list of the mathematics textbooks in the era of the Great Han Empire and summerize bibliographical data and linguistic characteristics in view of Korean history. In chapter 1, the author reviewed former studies which deals with the mathematics textbooks in the era of the Great Han Empire. In chapter 2, the author summerized bibliographical data of 45 volumes of 32 kinds textbooks. In chapter 3, the author described linguistic characteristics of the textbooks, especially focusing on writing systems, the use of Arabic numerals, horizontal writing, and presence of index or glossary
Also By The Same Author: AKTiveAuthor, a Citation Graph Approach to Name Disambiguation
The desire for definitive data and the semantic web drive for inference over heterogeneous data sources requires co-reference resolution to be performed on those data. In particular, name disambiguation is required to allow accurate publication lists, citation counts and impact measures to be determined. This paper describes a graph-based approach to author disambiguation on large-scale citation networks. Using self-citation, co-authorship and document source analyses, AKTiveAuthor clusters papers, achieving precision of 0.997 and recall of 0.818 over a test group of eight surname clusters
