However, no studies exist on individual differences in the fiber composition of the corpus callosum. Here we report for the first time the relation of fiber composition in specific callosal segments (as seen in light microscopy) to anatomical asymmetries in language-gifted cortex, as a function of sex. We found a significant negative correlation between Sylvian fissure asymmetries and the total numbers of fibers in the isthmus of males, and in the anterior splenium of females. In addition, a population of relatively large fibers (between 1 micron and 3 microns in diameter) in the isthmus showed a strong negative correlation with perisylvian asymmetries only in males. These findings suggest a sex-dependent, pathway-specific decrease in interhemispheric connectivity with increasing lateralization.citeulikehttp://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/27e842589cdf1e07630e430c3b5f7191b/a_olympiaa_olympia2007-08-18T13:22:24+02:00psychotic legislation gifted mentally education fantasy neurotic rearing female psychoanalytic libido ego paired-associate united electroencephalography disorders tests aggression therapy humans adult of male states learning intelligence retarded child methods <span style="color:#555555;">P.

This definition came as an entropy of the probability distribution {\it \`a la} Shannon. Fractons are charge-flux systems classified in universal classes of particles or quasiparticles labelled by a fractal or Hausdorff dimension defined within the interval $1 \&lt; h \&lt; 2$ and associated with the fractal quantum curves of such objects. They carry rational or irrational values of spin and the spin-statistics connection takes place in this fractal approach to the fractional spin particles. We take into account the fractal von Neumann entropy associated with the fractal distribution function which each universal class of fractons satisfies. We consider the fractional quantum Hall effect-FQHE given that fractons can model Hall states. According to our formulation entanglement between occupaton-numbers in this context increases with the universality classes of the quantum Hall transitions considered as fractal sets of dual topological quantum numbers filling factors. We verify that the Hall states have stronger entanglement between ocuppation-numbers and so we can consider this resource for fracton quantum computing.citeulikehttp://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2f5ab25dee3d117e6eab9a1f4d607178e/a_olympiaa_olympia2007-08-18T13:22:24+02:00quantum probability mechanics theory of <span style="color:#555555;">Itamar <a href="http://www.bibsonomy.org/author/Pitowsky">Pitowsky</a> </span><em>Oct2005. </em>Sat Aug 18 13:22:24 CEST 2007OctQuantum mechanics as a theory of probability2005quantum probability mechanics theory of We develop and defend the thesis that the Hilbert space formalism of quantum mechanics is a new theory of probability. The theory, like its classical counterpart, consists of an algebra of events, and the probability measures defined on it. The construction proceeds in the following steps: (a) Axioms for the algebra of events are introduced following Birkhoff and von Neumann. All axioms, except the one that expresses the uncertainty principle, are shared with the classical event space. The only models for the set of axioms are lattices of subspaces of inner product spaces over a field K. (b) Another axiom due to Soler forces K to be the field of real, or complex numbers, or the quaternions. We suggest a probabilistic reading of Soler's axiom. (c) Gleason's theorem fully characterizes the probability measures on the algebra of events, so that Born's rule is derived. (d) Gleason's theorem is equivalent to the existence of a certain finite set of rays, with a particular orthogonality graph (Wondergraph). Consequently, all aspects of quantum probability can be derived from rational probability assignments to finite "quantum gambles". We apply the approach to the analysis of entanglement, Bell inequalities, and the quantum theory of macroscopic objects. We also discuss the relation of the present approach to quantum logic, realism and truth, and the measurement problem.citeulikehttp://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/20160caf3b6781944fb6069b8bf74cf61/a_olympiaa_olympia2007-08-18T13:22:24+02:00elimination the two predicate powers of reals quantifier for <span style="color:#555555;">Jeremy <a href="http://www.bibsonomy.org/author/Avigad">Avigad</a> and Yimu <a href="http://www.bibsonomy.org/author/Yin">Yin</a> </span><em>Oct2006. </em>Sat Aug 18 13:22:24 CEST 2007OctQuantifier elimination for the reals with a predicate for the powers of two2006elimination the two predicate powers of reals quantifier for In 1985, van den Dries showed that the theory of the reals with a predicate for the integer powers of two admits quantifier elimination in an expanded language, and is hence decidable. He gave a model-theoretic argument, which provides no apparent bounds on the complexity of a decision procedure. We provide a syntactic argument that yields a procedure that is primitive recursive, although not elementary. In particular, we show that it is possible to eliminate a single block of existential quantifiers in time $2^0_{O(n)}$, where $n$ is the length of the input formula and $2_k^x$ denotes $k$-fold iterated exponentiation.citeulikehttp://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2d24c6f8480b6e546ffba9ee17ac06881/a_olympiaa_olympia2007-08-18T13:22:24+02:00processes of stochastic inconsistencies real theories measure and current probability numbers <span style="color:#555555;">Guang-Liang <a href="http://www.bibsonomy.org/author/Li">Li</a> and Victor O.

The database entries in DBLP are inserted manually while the CiteSeer entries are obtained autonomously via a crawl of the Web and automatic processing of user submissions. CiteSeer's autonomous citation database can be considered a form of self-selected on-line survey. It is important to understand the limitations of such databases, particularly when citation information is used to assess the performance of authors, institutions and funding bodies. <br />We show that the CiteSeer database contains considerably fewer single author papers. This bias can be modeled by an exponential process with intuitive explanation. The model permits us to predict that the DBLP database covers approximately 24% of the entire literature of Computer Science. CiteSeer is also biased against low-cited papers. <br />Despite their difference, both databases exhibit similar and significantly different citation distributions compared with previous analysis of the Physics community. In both databases, we also observe that the number of authors per paper has been increasing over time.citeulikehttp://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/2e2035129c70fbaed47ffb31214e5411d/a_olympiaa_olympia2007-08-18T13:22:24+02:00small worlds theory groundbreaking the of networks and <span style="color:#555555;">Mark <a href="http://www.bibsonomy.org/author/Buchanan">Buchanan</a> </span><em>W.

In addition to suggesting a systematic method to the discovery of the structure of commonsense knowledge, the method we propose seems to also provide an explanation for a number of phenomena in natural language, such as metaphor, intensionality, and the semantics of nominal compounds. Admittedly, our ultimate goal is quite ambitious, and it is no less than the systematic 'discovery' of a well-typed ontology of commonsense knowledge, and the subsequent formulation of the long-awaited goal of a meaning algebra.citeulikehttp://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/252f8ea54c9a8bac5ea966cb56e80748d/a_olympiaa_olympia2007-08-18T13:22:24+02:00law second of thermodynamics <span style="color:#555555;">Eric D. <a href="http://www.bibsonomy.org/author/Schneider">Schneider</a> and James J. <a href="http://www.bibsonomy.org/author/Kay">Kay</a> </span><em>Mathematical and Computer Modelling</em><em>19(6-8):25--48</em>(<em>1994</em>)Sat Aug 18 13:22:24 CEST 2007Mathematical and Computer Modelling6-825--48Life as a manifestation of the second law of thermodynamics191994law second of thermodynamics We examine the thermodynamic evolution of various evolving systems, from primitive physical systems to complex living systems, and conclude that they involve similar processes which are phenomenological manifestations of the second law of thermodynamics. We take the reformulated second law of thermodynamics of Hatsopoulos and Keenan and Kestin and extend it to nonequilibrium regions, where nonequilibrium is described in terms of gradients maintaining systems at some distance away from equilibrium. The reformulated second law suggests that as systems are moved away from equilibrium they will take advantage of all available means to resist externally applied gradients. When highly ordered complex systems emerge, they develop and grow at the expense of increasing the disorder at higher levels in the system's hierarchy. We note that this behaviour appears universally in physical and chemical systems. We present a paradigm which provides for a thermodynamically consistent explanation of why there is life, including the origin of life, biological growth, the development of ecosystems, and patterns of biological evolution observed in the fossil record. We illustrate the use of this paradigm through a discussion of ecosystem development . We argue that as ecosystems grow and develop, they should increase their total dissipation, develop more complex structures with more energy flow, increase their cycling activity, develop greater diversity and generate more hierarchical levels, all to abet energy degradation. Species which survive in ecosystems are those that funnel energy into their own production and reproduction and contribute to autocatalytic processes which increase the total dissipation of the ecosystem. In short ecosystems develop in ways which systematically increases their ability to degrade the incoming solar energy. We believe that our thermodynamic paradigm makes it possible for the study of ecosystems to be developed from a descriptive science to a predictive science founded on the most basic principle of physics.citeulikehttp://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/28483646e5e25e35c8a65520e0be0f747/a_olympiaa_olympia2007-08-18T13:22:24+02:00for numbers cyclic of prime order noether groups <span style="color:#555555;">P. <a href="http://www.bibsonomy.org/author/Fleischmann">Fleischmann</a> and M. <a href="http://www.bibsonomy.org/author/Sezer">Sezer</a> and R.
