The study gives a review of the Kalmyk clan sings called tamga. The article identifies the main types of these signs. The author points out that tamgas in their image have simple geometrical figures that can be the evidence of their ancient origin and the high probability of duplication in different nations. The most simple geometrical figure in the system of the clan signs has a form of a straight line and also an angle with sides of different length. One of the most popular images is a cross that in the folk culture is associated with cross piece of the smoke flap of the yurt. There are a lot of tamgas in the shape of a circle or, as the Kalmyks call it in the system of tamgas, iron ring. The variety of this type of tamgas is set up based on the number of rings and their position in relation to each other. There were popular tamgas in the shape of a semicircle that differed in the direction of the image and also in the shape of bident or trident. The authors’ materials point to the fact that there could also be sings in the form of Chinese characters. All things considered, there are several desiderata in the study of Kalmyk tamgas and their further study will allow to enlarge the list of tamga types.

The problem of handwritten Chinese character recognition is solved by matching character stroke segments using an iteration scheme. Length and orientation similarity properties, and coordinate overlapping ratios are used to define a measure of similarity between any two stroke segments. The initial measures of similarity between the stroke segments of the input and template characters are used to set up a match network which includes all the match relationships between the input and template stroke segments. Based on the concept of at-most-one to one mapping an iteration scheme is employed to adjust the match relationships, using the contextual information implicitly contained in the match network, so that the match relationships can get into a stable state. From the final match relationships, matched stroke-segment pairs are determined by a mutually-best match strategy and the degree of similarity between the input and each template character is evaluated accordingly. Certain structure information of Chinese characters is also used in the evaluation process. The experimental results show that the proposed approach is effective. For recognition of Chinese characters written by a specific person, the recognition rate is about 96%. If the characters of the first three ranks are checked in counting the recognition rate, the rate rises to 99.6%.

§ 1. The six Plücker coordinates of a straight line in three dimensional space satisfy an identical quadratic relationwhich immediately shows that a one-one correspondence may be set up between lines in three dimensional space, λ, and points on a quadric manifold of four dimensions in five dimensional space, S5. For these six numbers pij may be considered to be six homogeneous coordinates of such a point.

In Indonesia, in addition to english mandarin also become a very common thing. Many companies employ one of the conditions of staff must be fluent in speaking Chinese, reading and writing Chinese characters. Therefore, the majority of schools in Indonesia have set up Chinese language courses, in order to give Chinese language’s basic foundation to their students. In Pluit, courses of Chinese language schools are mostly private, three-language schools and international schools (not including international schools in the U.S. system). Through the six factors of curriculum (Teachers, facilities, scores, textbooks, curricula, and social participation ), the writer wants to analyze Permai Plus school curriculum Chinese course situation.

A Gaussian random walk is a random walk in which each step is a vector whose coordinates are Gaussian random variables. In 3-space, if a Gaussian random walk of n steps begins and ends at the origin, then we can join successive points by straight line segments to get a knot. It is known that if n is large, then the knot is non-trivial with high probability. We give a new proof of this fact. Our proof shows in addition that with high probability the knot is contained as an essential loop in a fat, knotted, solid torus. Therefore the knot is a satellite knot and cannot be unknotted by any small perturbation.

The number of cysts used for each replicate in a dilution hatching trial may be reduced to 10. Log. total hatch is used, instead of total hatch itself, and the mean for each dilution determined from the log. values; the logs, of these means, plotted against dilution in the usual way, gives a straight line as in the original Fenwick technique. Reduction of the number of cysts permits the use of commercially available utensils to form an easily handled set-up.

Teaching a foreign language in a non-linguistic college or university should be professionally oriented, which brings up the question of selecting the relevant vocabulary of a professional discourse under study. Modern text corpora are too general in subject matter and the time span. Therefore, a specially compiled collection of texts can serve the purpose of selecting the vocabulary. In the case of the Chinese language, the task is complicated by the lack of word segmentation in such texts. Taking into account the fact that most words in Chinese are written in two characters, it is assumed that one of the methods applicable in this situation is a comprehensive frequency analysis of text sequences of two characters – character bigrams. The analysis of frequent bigrams has showed that 70% of the most frequent lexical units are representative of the discourse, including 11% of out-of-vocabulary ones. The remaining part of bigrams pertain to syntactic constructions, including structurally incomplete ones, and fragments of longer lexical units. Thus, the high frequency of character co-occurrence can with a rather high probability (p > 0.7) be considered as an indicator of lexicality in identifying representative vocabulary in an unsegmented the matic collection of texts in Chinese.

3D modeling is often used in orthodontics. Most commonly used software today is problem- oriented CAD system (OrthoCAD and others), as well as general CAD software for engineering modeling. Both methods require definition and use of various geometric entities to describe and monitor orthodontic status, but still there have been more than one approach to definition of geometric entities that characterize orthodontic parameters. The aim of this study was to define the referent geometric entities (RGE) on 3D models, perform their classification and provide examples of their application. For defining and monitoring orthodontic parameters the following RGE groups are used: (a) basic geometric entities (point, line, straight line, plane, curve, curved surface); (b) derived geometric entities (coordinate origin, coordinate system, coordinate plane, axis, edge, perspective); and (c) anatomical geometric entities (surfaces, points). In this study, using 11 examples is shown how orthodontic parameters can be modeled over three classification groups RGE. Presented analysis and RGE examples indicate that RGE give interdisciplinary and systematic approach to computer modeling in orthodontics, and create a basis for development and implementation of methods of anatomical features in orthodontics which can be used to set up an integrated orthodontic parameter.

Irreducible triangulations are plane graphs with a quadrangular exterior face, triangular interior faces and no separating triangles. Fusy proposed a straight-line grid drawing algorithm for irreducible triangulations, whose grid size is asymptotically with high probability 11n/27 × 11n/27 up to an additive error of [Formula: see text]. Later on, Fusy generalized the idea to quadrangulations and obtained a straight-line grid drawing, whose grid size is asymptotically with high probability 13n/27 × 13n/27 up to an additive error of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we first prove that the above two straight-line grid drawing algorithms for irreducible triangulations and quadrangulations actually produce open rectangle-of-influence drawings for them respectively. Therefore, the above mentioned straight-line grid drawing size bounds also hold for the open rectangle-of-influence drawings. These results improve previous known drawing sizes. In the second part of the paper, we present another application of the results obtained by Fusy. We present a linear time algorithm for constructing a rectangular dual for a randomly generated irreducible triangulation with n vertices, one of its dimensions equals [Formula: see text] asymptotically with high probability, up to an additive error of [Formula: see text]. In addition, we prove that the one dimension tight bound for a rectangular dual of any irreducible triangulations with n vertices is (n + 1)/2.

Abstract The differential equation determining the elevations of a perfectly plastic three-dimensional steady-state ice sheet is set up. Analytical solutions of the equation are obtained in two simple cases, viz. (1) an ice sheet on a horizontal base with an arbitrary curve as edge and (2) an ice sheet ona plane but sloping bed, with an edge composed of straight-line segments. The solutions are discussed in particular with reference to the development of ice divides and ice streams.
