Is Word Order Responsive to Morphology? Disentangling Cause and Effect in Morphosyntactic Change in Five Western European Languages by Julie Nijs, Freek Van de Velde, Hubert Cuyckens

“…The causal asymmetry is robustly borne out in Dutch and German, though waveringly in English, as well as in French and Italian. Nowhere, however, is the asymmetry reversed. Together, these results can be interpreted as supporting the idea that a decline in morphological complexity causally precedes a rise in syntactic complexity, though further investigation into the underlying factors contributing to the differing trends across languages is needed.…”

Macrosiphonia petraea: Variantes poblacionales con potencial decorativo by H. FONTANA, A MASCARINI, N. FATTA

“…Se concluyó que existen polimorfismos para los caracteres observados y que por su rusticidad M. petraea podría posicionarse como una opción decorativa de bajo mantenimiento en nichos comerciales tales como jardines de roca en lugares con actividad nocturna. La selección, un programa de fertilización comercial y un manejo en exterior a partir del inicio de la época cálida, probablemente permitirían obtener un número superior flores y mejor estado sanitario.…”

Degree distribution optimization for LT codes and its application in link maintenance of cognitive radio by Benshun YI, Weiqing YAO

“…The degree distribution has a great influence on the performance of Luby transform (LT) codes.Based on the link maintain model of cognitive radio system，the novel degree distribution of LT codes was obtained by using the THOA (two-layer hierarchical optimization algorithm) to combine the IPD (improved poisson distribution) which achieved high decoding success rate with low overhead and the robust soliton distribution (RSD) which achieved high decoding success rate with high overhead.Simulation results show that the proposed method with application to link maintenance in cognitive radio system can improve the reliability and efficiency of secondary communication.…”
