Three studies examined amnesic H.M.’s use of words, phrases, and propositions on the Test of Language Competence (TLC). In Study 1, H.M. used 19 lexical categories (e.g., common nouns, verbs) and one syntactic category (noun phrases) with the same re...
The satisfiability (SAT) problem is a core problem in computer science. Existing studies have shown that most industrial SAT instances can be effectively solved by modern SAT solvers while random SAT instances cannot. It is believed that the structur...
Modal logic S5, which isan important knowledge representation and reasoning paradigm, has been successfully applied in various artificial-intelligence-related domains. Similar to the random propositional theories in conjunctive clause form, the phase...
The sentence-initial coordinating conjunctions (and, but), referred to in the literature as SIA and SIB, have been well established as discourse markers beyond their syntactic function as connectors of related propositions. In reference to the proof-...
The predominant form of logic before Frege, the logic of terms has been largely neglected since. Terms may be singular, empty or plural in their denotation. This article, presupposing propositional logic, provides an axiomatization based on an identi...
We give some simple examples of applying some of the well-known elementary probability theory inequalities and properties in the field of logical argumentation. A probabilistic version of the hypothetical syllogism inference rule is as follows: if pr...
The challenges faced in an isolated wind energy conversion system (WECS) are larger transient times, high steady-state error, and larger harmonic content. To overcome these issues, an adaptive voltage controller (AVC) along with the load current obse...
This study presents a new Model Predictive Controller (MPC), built with algorithms based on Paraconsistent Annotated Logic (PAL), with application examples in the excitation control of a synchronous generator. PAL is a non-classical evidential and pr...
The toxicity of botulinum multi-domain neurotoxins (BoNTs) arises from a sequence of molecular events, in which the translocation of the catalytic domain through the membrane of a neurotransmitter vesicle plays a key role. A recent structural study o...
Integrating renewable energy into public space is becoming more common as a climate change solution. However, this approach is often guided by the environmental pillar of sustainability, with less focus on the economic and social pillars. The purpose...
This article examines the Latin construction i nunc et Vimp from the perspective of diachronic analyzability. The expression consists of two imperative forms with identical morphological marking—the first a motion verb (V1), the second a lexica...

Secondary corrective osteotomy of malunited craniofacial fractures can be a challenging proposition. The exposure, extrusion, and palpability of the titanium implants used become a genuine concern especially in areas of relatively thin skin, such as...
Despite the efforts to advance children’s rights’ protection, many children’s rights are still not respected in many places. This makes it more necessary than ever to raise the awareness of children’s rights and prepare new ge...
There is currently limited understanding surrounding the spatial accuracy of soil amelioration advice as a function of sampling density at the sub-field scale. Consequently, soil-based decisions are often made using a data limiting approach, as the v...

Purpose/Research question: The paper provides an empirical research of the Samsung case. In particular, we study the case by adopting three frameworks: dynamic capabilities (DC, examined by using the sensing/seizing/transforming approach), business m...
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as auxiliary regulators of gene expression influencing tumor microenvironment, metastasis and radio-resistance in cancer. The presence of lncRNA in extracellular fluids makes them promising diagnostic marke...
