This paper presents a corpus-based synchronic investigation of three Turkish mental–cognitive verbs in the present tense: san ‘guess, believe’ and zannet ‘suppose, assume’ (in the first person) and bil ‘know’...

Languages vary in their availability of productive endocentric bare-stem compounds (e.g., flower hat) and a range of complex predicates (separable verb-particles, double object datives, adjectival resultatives, put-locatives, make-causatives, and per...

In the current digitalised society, communication level requires high predicative competence and concept clarity to avoid predicative fallacies and to manage the contemporary information overload successfully. In this paper we review the fundamental...

This article studies the function of Copular Predicate Constructions in everyday English conversation. We compare predicate adjective constructions (PA) and constructions with a predicate nominal containing an adjective (PAN). We ask whether the attr...

The judicious configuration of predicates is a crucial but often overlooked aspect in the field of knowledge graphs. While previous research has primarily focused on the precision of triples in assessing knowledge graph quality, the rationality of pr...

Ocean wave height is one of the critical factors to decide the efficiency of the ocean wave energy conversion system. Usually, only when the resonate occurs between the ocean wave height (ocean wave speed in the vertical direction) and ocean wave ene...

This study, based on naturalistic discourse in Mano and on both morphosyntactic and prosodic characteristics, analyses the Mano constructions formed with the marker lɛ́, including the identifying construction, referent introduction, focus,...

Predicates and rules are usually enclosed as built-in functions in automated geometry reasoning systems, meaning users cannot add any predicate or rule, thus resulting in a limited reasoning capability of the systems. A method for expanding predicate...

The aim of the article is to describe a predicate-based logical model for the problem-solving of robots. The proposed article deals with analyses of trends of problem-solving robotic applications for manufacturing, especially for transportations and...

Objective Bayesianism says that the strengths of one’s beliefs ought to be probabilities, calibrated to physical probabilities insofar as one has evidence of them, and otherwise sufficiently equivocal. These norms of belief are often explicated using...

The so-called perífrasis perfectivas in Galician present the action as concluded or realized. This particular aspectual feature constitutes the common ground for an otherwise heterogeneous set of constructions, ranging from rematar de ‘f...

Recently a Delaunay refinement algorithm has been proposed that can mesh piecewise smooth complexes which include polyhedra, smooth and piecewise smooth surfaces, and non-manifolds. However, this algorithm employs domain dependent numerical predicate...

While transitive clauses with a subject and object have long been a fundamental focus of grammatical analyses across languages of the world, more recently, it has become apparent that naturally occurring language-in-use is in fact overwhelmingly intr...

Paraguayan Guarani features a pervasive pattern of aspectual polysemy whereby an underived monovalent predicate conveys both state and change of state senses, such as -o’ysã ‘be cold/get cold.’ The language also allows the de...

This study examines the relationship between learning environments and learning outcomes in acquiring Korean as a language target. We compare two learner groups residing in the United States: English-speaking learners of Korean in foreign language co...

The focus in this corpus-based study is on a set of Spanish constructions formed with the verb of visual perception, ver ‘to See’, and a predicate adjective or participle. In addition to a clearly recognizable transitive schema, the set i...

Property of geotechnical materials has inherent uncertainty due to the complex formation process and inevitable test error. However, existing long-term deformation prediction methods for geotechnical structure such as a filling embankment are determi...

Organizations consider human capital as one of their most important assets. Experts in the field have focused on the research and development of human talent management skills. At present, companies are giving high importance to the management of thi...

Container terminals (CTs) play an essential role in the global transportation system. To deal with growing container shipments, a CT needs to better solve the three essential seaside operational problems; berth allocation problem (BAP), quay crane as...

An unbiased scene graph generation (SGG) algorithm referred to as Skew Class-Balanced Re-Weighting (SCR) is proposed for considering the unbiased predicate prediction caused by the long-tailed distribution. The prior works focus mainly on alleviating...

Warlpiri and Warlmanpa (Ngumpin-Yapa languages of Australia) exhibit a complex predicate construction in which a class of preverbs introduces a single argument that is not shared by the argument structure of the inflecting verb, nor is there necessar...

This paper presents an agile method of logical semantics based on high-order Predicate Logic. An operator of predicate abstraction is introduced that provides a simple mechanism for logical aggregation of predicates and for logical typing. Monadic hi...

In load predication, point-based forecasting methods have been widely applied. However, uncertainties arising in load predication bring significant challenges for such methods. This therefore drives the development of new methods amongst which interv...

Inner product encryption, first introduced by Katz et al., is a type of predicate encryption in which a ciphertext and a private key correspond to an attribute vector and a predicate vector, respectively. Only if the attribute and predicate vectors s...

There are two main approaches to change of state verbs. One adopts an approach in terms of a total change (becomeP, for base predicate P), i.e., a change from not being in the extension of the base predicate to being in it. The other adopts an approa...

The scoring systems for disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) criteria require several adequate cutoff values, vary, and are complicated. Accordingly, a simpler and quicker diagnostic method for DIC is needed. Under such circumstances, soluble...

We offer a framework that captures both context-dependency and vagueness of predicate meanings—illustrated by the politically relevant case of woman—as an interaction of lexical meaning and Question under Discussion (‘QUD’). W...

The encapsulation of particular quality functions and predicates within temporal logic formulas markedly enhances the representation of detailed temporal characteristics within a system. During our preliminary investigations, we innovatively combined...

This article presents ongoing work on the aspectual properties of verb predicates, in particular, the classes of activities and accomplishments. Herein, we focus on incremental theme predicates, starting with consumption verbs as one of the represent...

This paper presents a state-based method to address the verification of $\mathcal{K}$-diagnosability and fault diagnosis of a finite-state vector discrete-event system (Vector DES) with partially observable state outputs due to limited sensors. Vector DES models...

The starting point is Peano’s expression of the axiomatics of natural numbers in the framework of Leśniewski’s elementary ontology. The author enriches elementary ontology with the so-called Frege’s predication scheme and goes on to...

Since the seminal work by David Dowty, much inspired by the earlier ideas of Generative Semantics, a number of proposals have been developed accounting for the internal constitution and interpretation of accomplishment event predicates like ‘op...

A series of caffeic acid amides were designed, synthesized and evaluated for anti-inflammatory activity. Most of them exhibited promising anti-inflammatory activity against nitric oxide (NO) generation in murine macrophage RAW264.7 cells. A 3D pharma...

Multi-relational graph neural networks (GNNs) have found widespread application in tasks involving enhancing knowledge representation and knowledge graph (KG) reasoning. However, existing multi-relational GNNs still face limitations in modeling the e...

Presently, for the purpose of sustainable growth of the economy, it is a common choice to promote sectors’ digital transformation (DT). However, to credibly monitor the effect of DT on sectoral development, it is necessary to develop a systematic mea...

For glulam bonding performance assessment, the traditional method of manually measuring the wood failure percentage (WFP) is insufficient. In this paper, we developed a rapid assessment approach to predicate the WFP based on deep-learning (DL) techni...

The quest to understand the natural and the mathematical as well as philosophical principles of dynamics of life forms are ancient in the human history of science. In ancient times, Pythagoras and Plato, and later, Copernicus and Galileo, correctly o...

In this paper, we investigate constraints on the time reference of embedded clauses in Mandarin. We show that while English past-tensed embedded clauses disallow later-than-matrix readings in intensional contexts on a de dicto construal, Mandarin rel...

Spanish copula choice ser/estar and the semantic and pragmatic distinctions that derive from their alternation in predicate adjective constructions have been discussed in several studies focused on the features of Spanish as a heritage language, usua...

The interplay of symmetry of algebraic structures in a space and the corresponding topological properties of the space provides interesting insights. This paper proposes the formation of a predicate evaluated P-separation of the subspace of a topolog...

Microorganisms are an important component of global biodiversity and play an important role in plant growth and development and the protection of host plants from various biotic and abiotic stresses. However, little is known about the identities and...
