Meaning and speech acts by Rumfitt, I

“…On Strawson’s analysis, a speaker S succeeds in telling an audience H that p only if H comes to believe that S believes that p; this chapter argues that belief in the speaker’s sincerity is not necessary for successful telling. …”

Character-aware audio-visual subtitling in context by Huh, J, Zisserman, A

Evolving optimal and diversified military operational plans for computational red teaming by Zeng, Fanchao, Decraene, James, Low, Malcolm Yoke Hean, Zhou, Suiping, Cai, Wentong

“…The CRT optimization process aims at identifying simulation models which exhibit emergent system behaviors of interest, e.g., when the adversary (called “Red”) breaks the defensive (“Blue”) strategies. Numerous multiobjective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) have been applied to CRT; however, the elitist and converging nature of these Pareto-based optimization algorithms typically leads to the generation of optimal, with respect to the Pareto front, but poorly diversified adversarial operational plans. …”

Raman spectroscopic study of the effects of dissolved NaCl and temperature on water structure by Wang, Yanan.

“…It is believed that the addition of NaCl introduces new ions, which breaks the water molecules tetrahedral hydrogen bonding and meanwhile helps to form the donor hydrogen bonding, thus the number of free OH bonds is slightly lowered. …”

Nodal Brillouin-zone boundary from folding a Chern insulator by Lang, Li-Jun, Zhang, Shao-Liang, Zhou, Qi

“…Here, we discuss a nonsymmorphic Chern insulator, which preserves the nonsymmorphic symmetry and breaks the time-reversal symmetry. It consists of two half-filled Chern insulators, and the bulk energy spectrum is obtained from folding that of either Chern insulator. …”

Incident Prevention and Mitigation In The Asia Pacific Littorals: Framing, Expanding, and Adding to Cues by Ong-Webb, Graham, Koh, Collin, Miranda, Bernard

“…It argues that such a comprehensive incident prevention and mitigation plan must be multidimensional and multilevel in its approach, cascading from the political, strategic, operational, to tactical levels. This study breaks down into three main sections. The first examines the framing of the existing Code for Unplanned Encounters at Sea (CUES) and its expansion as well as any new prevention and mitigation initiatives. …”

THE BEAUTY OF FALLING : A Life in Pursuit of Gravity / by Rham, Claudia de 656071

“…The author will emphasize that General Relativity predicts its own downfall, and where the theory breaks down - at the particle level - is exactly where scientists are focusing in their search for new physics. …”

Contextual Predictability and Phonetic Reduction by Martin, Kinan R.

“…Our results provide evidence suggesting that the contextual probability of a word given the following context correlates with word duration more strongly than the past context and the bidirectional contexts for both context sizes, suggesting that phonetic reduction may be a reliable indicator of reduced cognitive load in a speaker’s planning of the rest of an utterance.…”

Two millennia of tropical cyclone-induced mud layers in a northern Yucatán stalagmite : multiple overlapping climatic hazards during the Maya Terminal Classic “megadroughts” by Frappier, Amy Benoit, Pyburn, James, Pinkey-Drobnis, Aurora D., Wang, Xianfeng, Corbett, D. Reide, Dahlin, Bruce H.

“…Without a high-resolution radiometric geochronology of individual local TC events, speleothem isotope records cannot resolve whether the Terminal Classic Period in the northern Maya Lowlands was punctuated by several brief drought breaks with normal TCs, or whether the region was very dry and peppered by unusually severe and frequent hurricane seasons.…”
