Subject:
bimodality, unimodality, multimodality, and mixture of two unimodal distributions
Language:
English
Description:
Conditions for bimodality of mixtures of two unimodal distributions are investigated in some special cases. Based on general characterizations, explicit criteria for the parameters are derived for mixtures of two Cauchy, logistic, Student, gamma, log-normal, Gumbel and other distributions.

Language:

Description:
This study addresses the role of co-speech gestures in the construal of aspectuality. A behavioral experiment was conducted with speakers of Czech to investigate patterns observed in a preceding multimodal corpus-based study focusing on gesture and aspectuality. In particular, the experiment was designed to explore the perceived association between the emphasized ending of a hand movement (or absence thereof) and the grammatical aspect (and the lexical-semantic properties) of the predicate accompanied by the gesture. Combining various approaches in its design (motion capture, lexical ratings, corpus data), the experiment revealed a strong association between the perfective aspect and end-marking in gestures, while the link between the imperfective and gestures without a marked ending was weaker. The results of the experiment are in line with tendencies observed for other languages, indicating that the gestural marking of boundary is prominent in multimodal construals of events. Besides, specific multimodal patterns (combinations of finer-grained lexical-semantic features and formal parameters of gestures) also occur, as reflected in the data. This study provides the first experimental data on the perception of multimodal expressions in Czech.

Description:
Přibližně od druhé poloviny devadesátých let můžeme v sociálních vědách rozpoznat řadu tendencí, které nás opravňují hovořit o digitálním obratu v sociálněvědní praxi. Ačkoli důsledky digitalizace jsou pozorovatelné v mnoha oblastech sociálních věd, nejvýrazněji jsou zřejmě patrné ve znovuoživení očekávání spojovaných s tzv. dialogickým obratem a v diskusi rozpoutané kolem konceptu veřejné vědy. Tato studie vychází z kritického představení antologie a knihy- -hypermédia Phillip VANNINI (ed.), Popularizing Research. Engaging New Genres, Media and Audiences. New York: Peter Lang 2012, 220 s.; Phillip VANNINI (ed.), Popularizing Research [online]. 2012. Dostupné z: <http://www.popularizingresearch. net> [cit. 4. 1. 2013], přičemž jejím cílem je zejména postižení souvislostí mezi digitálním a dialogickým obratem v sociálních vědách a vymezení vztahu těchto obratů ke konceptu veřejné vědy., Since the second half of the 1990s we can distinguish several tendencies that can be considered as indicators of the digital turn in social scientific practice. Although we can recognize the consequences of digitization of the social sciences in many forms and on several levels, probably the most noticable is the revival of the expectations associated with the so-called dialogical turn and the concept of public science. This critical review of the anthology and the book-hypermedia Phillip VANNINI (ed.), Popularizing Research. Engaging New Genres, Media and Audiences. New York: Peter Lang 2012, 220 pp.; Phillip VANNINI (ed.), Popularizing Research [online]. 2012. Available at: <http://www.popularizingresearch.net> [cit. 4. 1. 2013] thus aims to cover mutual connections between the digital and dialogical turn in thesocial sciences and delineatetheir relation to the concept of public science., and Michal Šimůnek.
