This book deals with synchronic variation in Chinese through a diachronic lens, based on the evidence from a quantitative, longitudinal corpus study.

There has been an upsurge of interest in the processing of major East Asian languages such as Chinese, Japanese and Korean. These languages, due to their salient differences in structure from European languages, provide challenging opportunities to explore both language-specific processes involved in comprehension and communication and the universality of theories developed from the study of European languages. This volume presents a sample of research on the processing of Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Topics range from written and spoken word processing to sentence and discourse...

The aim of this volume is to integrate the most recent research in the cognitive processing of Chinese and related Asian languages (i.e. Japanese and Korean) into a single academic reference. Because so much more was learned about the topic over the past several years, the proposed volume is intended to provide something like a state-of-art review and to capture what is currently going on in a new and rapidly expanding field.

This volume uses unique properties of Chinese script to focus on morphological analyses during the character and word recognition process, though some of the reported work also pertains to the use of phonological information. In addition, this volume contains work on syntactic and pragmatic processes during sentence reading and three chapters that examine on-line processes. A comprehensive appraisal of cognitive processes during the reading of Chinese script that includes studies conducted by leading researchers from within and outside the mainland, this volume will be of interest to all...

Providing a complete review of existing work in music emotion developed in psychology and engineering, Music Emotion Recognition explains how to account for the subjective nature of emotion perception in the development of automatic music emotion recognition (MER) systems. Among the first publications dedicated to automatic MER, it begins with a comprehensive introduction to the essential aspects of MER--including background, key techniques, and applications.

This ground-breaking reference examines emotion from a dimensional perspective. It defines emotions...

Modifying Food Texture, Volume 2: Sensory Analysis, Consumer Requirements and Preferences explores texture as an important aspect of consumer food acceptance and preference, specifically addressing the food textural needs of infants, the elderly, and dysphagia patients.

This volume covers the sensory analysis of texture-modified foods, taking an in-depth look at the product development needs of consumers and exploring the sensory analysis of food texture and the development of texture-modified foods.

Dans le cadre de son accord d'adhesion a l'OMC, la Chine s'est engagee a autoriser l'implantation de banques etrangeres pouvant pleinement concurrencer les banques domestiques. Ce livre analyse la situation actuelle du systeme bancaire chinois qui presente une grande fragilite caracterisee par un montant considerable de creances douteuses, une insuffisance de fons propres et des inefficiences internes. Le systeme bancaire doit donc etre reforme en profondeur pour affronter tant la concurrence etrangere que celle des marches financiers et pour repondre rapidement a la nouvelle reglementation...

In the context of highway onramp bottlenecks, the authors present a traffic flow breakdown probability model and spatial-temporal queuing model to improve the stability and reliability of road traffic flows.

A new, comprehensive framework for programme evaluation designed to bridge the gap between the method- and theory-oriented perspectives, is presented in this book, newly available in paper. Chen provides an intensive discussion of the nature and functions of programme theory, approaches to constructing programme theories, and the integration of programme theory with evaluation processes. Specific types of theory-driven evaluations, as well as principles and guidelines for application, are developed for meeting different policy purposes. Application of systematic strategies is illustrated by...

Interval-Censored Time-to-Event Data: Methods and Applications collects the most recent techniques, models, and computational tools for interval-censored time-to-event data. Top biostatisticians from academia, biopharmaceutical industries, and government agencies discuss how these advances are impacting clinical trials and biomedical research.

Divided into three parts, the book begins with an overview of interval-censored data modeling, including nonparametric estimation, survival functions, regression analysis, multivariate data analysis, competing risks...

Modifying Food Texture, Volume 1: Novel Ingredients and Processing Techniques discusses texture as an important aspect of consumer food acceptance and preference, and the fact that specific consumer groups, including infants, the elderly, and dysphagia patients require texture-modified foods.

Topics covered include ingredients and processing techniques used in texture modification of foods, an overview of food texture issues, the novel use of processing techniques for texture modification, and the uses of food ingredients in texture-modified foods.

Le rA]gne de Jayavarman IV est traditionnellement associA(c) au site de Koh Ker dans l'histoire du Cambodge ancien. Ce souverain aurait abandonnA(c) la capitale angkorienne pour installer le siA]ge de son pouvoir (921-941) A quelque cent vingt kilomA]tres plus A l'est, dans un lieu certainement peu peuplA(c) Chok Gargyar, connu aujourd'hui sous le nom de Koh Ker. A sa mort et son fils, Harsavarman II, vers 944, son successeur R jendravarman rA(c)installe la capitale A Angkor sans qu'on puisse vraiment expliquer ce retour: Koh Ker, dA]s lors abandonnA(c) par les rois, semblerait n'avoir pas...
