Topoi, 2014 Presuppositions are capable of projecting from under the scope of operators such as negation, but do not obligatorily do so.

Presupposition Accommodation of the German Additive Particle auch (= “too”)
Frontiers in Communication, 2019 Presupposition triggers differ with respect to whether their presupposition is easily accommodatable. The presupposition of focus-sensitive additive particles like also or too is often classified as hard to accommodate, i.e., these triggers are ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.We develop a data‐driven method to derive the mathematical expressions of the Flory–Huggins interaction parameter χ for the swelling behavior of temperature–responsive hydrogels. Starting from initial assumptions of χ, our workflow combines Bayesian optimization, Flory–Rehner theory, and symbolic regression to generate candidate χ expressions.
