To investigate the extent of adoption of more efficient coding strategies, pigeons learned, in three experiments, a symbolic matching-to-sample task that featured an asymmetric sample-comparison mapping. In all experiments, one comparison was correct following one of the samples (one-to-one mapping), and another comparison was correct following the remaining samples (many-to-one mapping). The experiments differ...
A geração computacional do que pode ser concebido e reconhecido como "poesia verbal" é explorada, há muitas décadas, em muitas línguas naturais. Mas apenas projetos recentemente desenvolvidos possuem aplicação intensiva da computação, considerando muitos níveis de organização, linguísticos e paralinguísticos, fonológicos, rítmicos, sintáticos, semânticos, e até pragmáticos. O que apresentamos aqui é um sistema ...
What function can the phenomenon of creative translation, iconic translation, or transcreation play among different forms of criticism? We will examine this topic within the scope of the division proposed by Umberto Eco, and its relationship to Haroldo de Campos’ thesis of “creative translation as criticism” – “if translation is a privileged form of critical reading, it will be through it that readers will be a...
The knowledge about non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) is rapidly increasing with new data continuously emerging, regarding their diverse types, applications, and roles. Particular attention has been given to ncRNA with regulatory functions, which may have a critical role both in biological and pathological conditions. As a result of the diversity of ncRNAs and their ubiquitous involvement in several biologic processes, ...
