Conversion, with versions: exploring models of religious conversion
Religião e Sociedade, 2010 By maintaining that it is not for the anthropologist to disempower native discourses, whatever the propositions of the latter may be, this work aims to take into account diverging statements concerning the processes of religious conversion.

The New PWV Conversion Models Based on GNSS and Meteorological Elements in the China Region
Atmosphere, 2022 To address the problems of cumbersome processes, large data, and error accumulation in the calculation of conventional GNSS precipitable water volume (PWV), the multi-factor PWV conversion models were established using the multiple linear regression ...

A generative model of group conversation [PDF]
Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on the Foundations of Digital Games, 2017 Conversations with non-player characters (NPCs) in games are typically confined to dialogue between a human player and a virtual agent, where the conversation is initiated and controlled by the player. To create richer, more believable environments for players, we need conversational behavior to reflect initiative on the part of the NPCs, including ...

The influence of particle residence time distribution on the reactivity in fluidized bed reactors [PDF]
, 1993 The influence of particle residence time distribution on the average conversion rate (or reactivity) of particles undergoing a non-catalytic gas-solid reaction inside a continuously operated fluidized bed reactor is evaluated.

Conversation Modeling to Predict Derailment
Proceedings of the International AAAI Conference on Web and Social Media, 2023 Conversations among online users sometimes derail, i.e., break down into personal attacks. Derailment interferes with the healthy growth of communities in cyberspace. The ability to predict whether an ongoing conversation will derail could provide valuable advance, even real-time, insight to both interlocutors and moderators.

Non-Gaussianities in DBI inflation with angular motion [PDF]
, 2014 We study DBI spinflation models with angular potentials that are derived in string theory. We analyse the background dynamics with different parameter sets and study the impact of changing each parameter on inflationary dynamics.

Color Conversion of Wide-Color-Gamut Cameras Using Optimal Training Groups
Sensors, 2023 The colorimetric conversion of wide-color-gamut cameras plays an important role in the field of wide-color-gamut displays. However, it is rather difficult for us to establish the conversion models with desired approximation accuracy in the case of wide ...
