Seventy-six Polish participants were presented with 24 nonwords paired with pictures; they completed 8 interleaving test blocks of form production and meaning recognition, both followed by feedback.

CoRR, 2020 Hessian based measures of flatness, such as the trace, Frobenius and spectral norms, have been argued, used and shown to relate to generalisation. In this paper we demonstrate that for feed forward neural networks under the cross entropy loss, we would expect low loss solutions with large weights to have small Hessian based measures of flatness.

NeuroImage, 2019 Synchronization plays a fundamental role in healthy cognitive and motor function. However, how synchronization depends on the interplay between local dynamics, coupling and topology and how prone to synchronization a network with given topological organization is are still poorly understood issues.

False Friends in Terminology: Croatian Lost in Translation
Rasprave Instituta za hrvatski jezik, 2020 Every terminology system strives to be as systematic as possible and able to eliminate system errors. In the context of error identification, it is more than obvious that linguistic errors, apart from other system errors, occur quite frequently. This paper is focused on the linguistic and translation phenomenon of false friends, especially as a ...

Eclipsing Ethereum Peers with False Friends [PDF]
2019 IEEE European Symposium on Security and Privacy Workshops (EuroS&PW), 2019 Ethereum is a decentralized Blockchain system that supports the execution of Turing-complete smart contracts. Although the security of the Ethereum ecosystem has been studied in the past, the network layer has been mostly neglected. We show that Go Ethereum (Geth), the most widely used Ethereum implementation, is vulnerable to eclipse attacks ...

A Friend in Need Is a Friend Indeed. Beware of False Friends,Though!
Scientific Bulletin of Naval Academy, 2018 Have you ever been deceived by a friend? A very unpleasant feeling, indeed! This can happen with language learning - no, this does not mean that your fellow learners are malicious, but that sometimes a word means something completely different than you think it does based on your knowledge of other languages or of your mother tongue.

, 2016 This thesis is devoted to the problem of translator’s false friends which are considered to be one of the most serious issues in the context of the theory and practice translation. There is no doubt the fact that the translation is a very ancient kind of human activity.
