Enhancing electricity auction mechanism with FACTS devices
… in the power electronics field bring the FACTS (flexible AC transmission system) devices and HVDC (high voltage DC) transmission to the power system. These devices are the power electronics based fast switching power flow controller. They have the ability to enhance the system …

Kripkenstein and Non-Reductionism about Meaning-Facts
… one family of solutions, according to which facts about meaning are sui generis and can neither be reduced to other facts about the world nor to non-semantic facts about the human mind. The non-reductionist proposals by Colin McGinn and Crispin Wright will be assessed in detail and arguments …

FACTS OF THE IMAGINATION (FROM THE INSIDE OUT)
Growing up in a bicultural household, navigating the F train as well as mountain creeks, studying culture and then participating in its production, these are some of the idiosyncrasies that I bring to my work. My investigations are rooted in combining a rediscovery of the sensuousness of the …

Neural Correlates of Error Detection in Math Facts
Previous studies have examined the relative contribution of domain-general and domain-specific mechanisms supporting the development of mathematics cognition, yielding mixed results. Two etiological origins have been proposed for children struggling with mathematics, the first resulting from a …

Evaluation of Automatic Text Summarization Using Synthetic Facts
… system with dynamically generated synthetic facts. We hypothesize that if a system guarantees a summary that has all the facts that are 100% known in the synthetic document, it can provide natural interpretability and high feasibility in measuring factual consistency and comprehensiveness. To …

Fostering fluency with basic addition and subtraction facts
The present study involved investigating knowledge and use of the addition-subtraction complement principle (if a + b = c, then c – b = a or c – a = b) by pupils in grades kindergarten to 3. Eighty-one children from three public schools serving a mid-western community participated in the study. …
