X-ray Interferometry Using a Modulated Phase Grating: Theory and Experiments [PDF]
X-ray grating interferometry allows for the simultaneous acquisition of attenuation, differential-phase contrast, and dark-field images, resulting from X-ray attenuation, refraction, and small-angle scattering, respectively.

Interplay of IR-Improved DGLAP-CS Theory and NLO Parton Shower MC Precision [PDF]
We present the interplay between the new IR-improved DGLAP-CS theory and the precision of NLO parton shower/ME matched MC`s as it is realized by the new MC Herwiri1.031 in interface to MC@NLO.

Programming in logic without logic programming [PDF]
In previous work, we proposed a logic-based framework in which computation is the execution of actions in an attempt to make reactive rules of the form if antecedent then consequent true in a canonical model of a logic program determined by an initial ...

Approximate Semantic Transference: A Computational Theory of Metaphors and Analogies [PDF]
In this paper we start from the assumption that in a metaphor, or an analogy, some terms belonging to one domain (source domain) are used to refer to objects other than their conventional referents belonging to a possibly different domain (target domain).

A metric for computational analysis of meaning [PDF]
A metric for assessing the complexity of semantic (and pragmatic) analysis in natural language processing is proposed as part of a general applied theory of linguistic semantics for NLP. The theory is intended as a complete projection of linguistic semantics onto NLP and is designed as an exhaustive list of possible choices among strategies of semantic

Comparisons of Predictions from Exact Amplitude-Based Resummation Methods with LHC and Cosmological Data [PDF]
We present the current status of the comparisons with the respective data of the predictions of our approach of exact amplitude-based resummation in quantum field theory in two areas of investigation: precision QCD calculations of all four of us as ...

Computational semantics in type theory [PDF]
This paper aims to show how Montague-style grammars can be completely formalized and thereby declaratively implemented by using the Grammatical Framework GF. The implementation covers the fundamental operations of Montague’s PTQ model: the construction of analysis trees, the linearization of trees into strings, and the interpretation of trees as ...

Distinctive features hold a privileged status in the computation of word meaning: Implications for theories of semantic memory. [PDF]
The authors present data from 2 feature verification experiments designed to determine whether distinctive features have a privileged status in the computation of word meaning. They use an attractor-based connectionist model of semantic memory to derive predictions for the experiments. Contrary to central predictions of the conceptual structure account,

CREOLE: a Universal Language for Creating, Requesting, Updating and Deleting Resources [PDF]
In the context of Service-Oriented Computing, applications can be developed following the REST (Representation State Transfer) architectural style. This style corresponds to a resource-oriented model, where resources are manipulated via CRUD (Create ...

Bounded LTL Model Checking with Stable Models
In this paper bounded model checking of asynchronous concurrent systems is introduced as a promising application area for answer set programming. As the model of asynchronous systems a generalisation of communicating automata, 1-safe Petri nets, are used.
