Distributional Learning of Lexical Tones: A Comparison of Attended vs. Unattended Listening. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
This study examines whether non-tone language listeners can acquire lexical tone categories distributionally and whether attention in the training phase modulates the effect of distributional learning.

Conformations of polydisperse polymer solutions : bimodal distribution [PDF]

open access: yesJournal de Physique, 1981
We use scaling arguments to construct the ’’phase diagram’’ of an athermal bimodal solution; i.e., a ternary system composed of long chains, short chains, and solvent. Qualitatively, the presence of short chains reduces the effective solvent quality as experienced by the long chains.

Bimodal Infrared Colors of the M87 Globular Cluster System: Peaks in the Metallicity Distribution

open access: yes, 2007
The globular cluster (GC) systems of many galaxies reveal bimodal optical color distributions. Based on stellar evolutionary models and the bimodal colors and metallicities of Galactic GCs this is thought to reflect an underlying bimodal metallicity ...

Nonequilibrium phase transitions and stationary state solutions of a three-dimensional random-field Ising model under a time dependent periodic external field

open access: yes, 2012
Nonequilibrium behavior and dynamic phase transition properties of a kinetic Ising model under the influence of periodically oscillating random-fields have been analyzed within the framework of effective field theory (EFT) based on a decoupling ...

Rapid learning of visual ensembles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
open3siWe recently demonstrated that observers are capable of encoding not only summary statistics, such as mean and variance of stimulus ensembles, but also the shape of the ensembles.

Curve fitting of the corporate recovery rates: the comparison of Beta distribution estimation and kernel density estimation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Recovery rate is essential to the estimation of the portfolio's loss and economic capital. Neglecting the randomness of the distribution of recovery rate may underestimate the risk.

Improvement of Stratospheric Aerosol Extinction Retrieval from OMPS/LP Using a New Aerosol Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite Limb Profiler (OMPS/LP) has been flying on the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (S-NPP) satellite since October 2011.

Modelling Bimodal Data Using a Multivariate Triangular-Linked Distribution

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
Bimodal distributions have rarely been studied although they appear frequently in datasets. We develop a novel bimodal distribution based on the triangular distribution and then expand it to the multivariate case using a Gaussian copula. To determine the

On the Metallicity-Color Relations and Bimodal Color Distributions in Extragalactic Globular Cluster Systems

open access: yes, 2007
We perform a series of numerical experiments to study how the nonlinear metallicity--color relations predicted by different stellar population models affect the color distributions observed in extragalactic globular cluster systems.

An analytical representation of raindrop size distribution in a mixed convective and stratiform precipitating system as revealed by field observations

open access: yesAtmospheric Science Letters, 2023
This study investigated a rainfall event under a typhoon influence using a 2D video disdrometer and weather radar observations to characterize raindrop size distribution (DSD) in a mixed convective and stratiform precipitating system.
