Complexity of Road Coloring with Prescribed Reset Words

March 2014 · Lecture Notes in Computer Science

By the Road Coloring Theorem (Trahtman, 2008), the edges of any aperiodic directed multigraph with a constant out-degree can be colored such that the resulting automaton admits a reset word. There may also be a need for a particular reset word to be admitted. For certain words it is NP-complete to decide whether there is a suitable coloring of a given multigraph. We present a classification of ... [Show full abstract] all words over the binary alphabet that separates such words from those that make the problem solvable in polynomial time. We show that the classification becomes different if we consider only strongly connected multigraphs. In this restricted setting the classification remains incomplete.

Hamroyeva Sharifa Shukur Qizi

Translation is considered to be almost on the same level as artistic creation in terms of its complexity and difficulty. This article deals with the issues of translating national coloring words and its classification. The practical importance of this study is giving the analysis of realias through the English translation of Uzbek historical novels. Data of the research is collected through ... [Show full abstract] qualitative method. Materials are analyzed analytically and comparatively. The object of the paper is English translation of historical novel of Oybek “Navoi” by I.M.Tukhtasinov and O.M.Muminov. The findings of the research show that translating culture words (realia) is one of the challenging tasks for translators. Furthermore, transcription, transliteration and translating through descriptive way are considered the appropriate solution to solve this issue.

Inscribing Colors and Coloring Words: A. S. Byatt's "Art Work" as a "Verbal Still Life"

Laurence Petit

Building on the work of major critics in the field of text and image, and color theory, the author examines how A. S. Byatt's "Art Work," from The Matisse Stories, is the textual equivalent of Matisse's visual experiments with color and composition. She argues that Byatt's story presents itself as a "verbal still life," not just for its attempt to cross the boundaries between the literary and the ...

Multiple neural mechanisms for coloring words in synesthesia

January 2014 · NeuroImage

Grapheme-color synesthesia is a phenomenon in which achromatic letters/digits automatically induce particular colors. When multiple letters are integrated into a word, some synesthetes perceive that all those letters are changed into the same color, reporting lexical color to that word. Previous psychological studies found several "rules" that determine those lexical colors. The colors to most ... [Show full abstract] words are determined by the first letters of the words, while some words in ordinal sequences have their specific colors. Recent studies further reported the third case where lexical colors might be influenced by semantic information of words. Although neural mechanisms determining those lexical colors remained unknown, here we identified three separate neural systems in the synesthete's brain underlying three rules for illusory coloring of words. In addition to the occipito-temporal and parietal regions previously found to be associated with the grapheme-color synesthesia, neural systems for lexical coloring extended to linguistic areas in the left inferior frontal and anterior temporal regions that were engaged in semantic analyses of words. Those results indicate an involvement of wider and higher neural networks than previously assumed in a production of synesthetic colors to visual stimuli and further showed a multiplicity of synesthetic mechanisms represented in the single brain.
