Plotting of Topographic Maps01:29

Plotting of Topographic Maps

681
Topographic maps represent the Earth's surface features using contour lines, which connect points of equal elevation to create a two-dimensional representation of three-dimensional terrain. Creating a topographic map requires a systematic approach.Begin by plotting a scaled grid and marking intersections corresponding to the survey's elevation data points. Assign elevation values at these intersections to build the base map. Next, determine contour levels using a consistent contour interval,...

Schemata

A schema is a mental construct that organizes related concepts, allowing the brain to process information efficiently. Upon activation, schemata facilitate assumptions about people or objects.
Two types of schemata are:

Sequence Networks of Rotating Machines01:24

Sequence Networks of Rotating Machines

517
A Y-connected synchronous generator, grounded through a neutral impedance, is designed to produce balanced internal phase voltages with only positive-sequence components. The generator's sequence networks include a source voltage that is exclusively in the positive-sequence network. The sequence components of line-to-ground voltages at the generator terminals illustrate this configuration.
Zero-sequence current induces a voltage drop across the generator's neutral impedance and other...

End Point Prediction: Gran Plot

1.4K
A Gran plot is used to predict the equivalence volume or endpoint of a potentiometric or acid-base titration without reaching the endpoint. Typically, titration data is collected as a function of the titrant's volume up to a point less than the equivalence volume and then transformed into a linear format. The straight line is extended to the x-axis, indicating the necessary titrant volume to achieve the equivalence point.
For potentiometric titration, the Gran plot is created by plotting...

A schema is a mental construct consisting of a cluster or collection of related concepts (Bartlett, 1932). There are many different types of schemata, and they all have one thing in common: schemata are a method of organizing information that allows the brain to work more efficiently. When a schema is activated, the brain makes immediate assumptions about the person or object being observed.

Scatter Plot

12.5K
The most common and easiest way to display the relationship between two variables, x and y, is a scatter plot. A scatter plot shows the direction of a relationship between the variables. A clear direction happens when there is either:

Area of Science:

  • Computational linguistics
  • Narratology
  • Artificial intelligence

Background:

  • Narrative structures follow general patterns, a concept explored in structuralist narratology.
  • Vladimir Propp's morphology of Russian folk tales provided an early procedural description of narrative generation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To computationally model and generate Russian folk tales based on Propp's morphology.
  • To computationally address aspects of narrative structure, such as long-range dependencies and endings, not fully explored by Propp.

Main Methods:

  • Revisiting Propp's morphology to build a generative system for Russian folk tales.
  • Employing Propp's character functions as a plot driver within a broader computational architecture.
  • Developing evaluation metrics inspired by Propp's formalism to assess generated outputs.

Main Results:

  • A system capable of generating instances of Russian folk tales based on Propp's structural principles.
  • Computational formalization of narrative elements like long-range function dependencies and the significance of endings.
  • Definition of metrics for evaluating the structural coherence and quality of generated tales.

Conclusions:

  • The developed system demonstrates the potential of procedural narrative generation based on structuralist principles.
  • Further research can explore advanced narrative features and expand the system's creative storytelling capabilities.
