[en] COMPOUNDS IN PORTUGUESE / [pt] OS NOMES COMPOSTOS EM PORTUGUÊS

TANIA VIEIRA GOMES 09 November 2005 (has links)
[pt] Este trabalho analisa os critérios de caracterização de nomes compostos em Português, com o objetivo de obter informações que permitam o estabelecimento dos padrões gerais do processo de composição de palavras, de tal modo que se possa distinguir este tipo de entidade lingüística de outras combinatórias lexicais, como as locuções nominais e outros sintagmas freqüentes e estáveis no repertório da língua. De início, faz-se um exame das abordagens da composição por autores identificados com a tradição gramatical. Em seguida, feita a identificação dos aspectos deste processo de criação lexical que permanecem inexplicados pela gramática, e sempre com o objetivo de se definir e caracterizar a palavra composta, procede-se ao estudo das abordagens dos lingüistas estruturalistas e suas tentativas de conceituar a palavra enquanto unidade lingüística. Finalmente, analisam-se as visões dos pesquisadores pósestruturalistas e os critérios e testes diferenciadores por eles propostos. As conclusões das análises efetuadas revelam que, ao lado de algumas poucas formações, que se comportam como palavras compostas quando analisadas sob os quatro critérios - fonológico, morfológico, sintático e semântico - há outras que se diferenciam dos grupos sintáticos comuns quando investigadas por alguns ou apenas um destes parâmetros, em geral o semântico. A investigação também revela que há muitas seqüências que, consideradas rigorosamente sob as leis da morfologia, não configuram unidades morfológicas, embora, do ponto de vista lexical, estejam cristalizadas no idioma e sejam percebidas como unidades lexicais pelos falantes. / [en] This work analyzes different criteria normally used to characterize compounds in Portuguese, as opposed to clauses and other types of linguistic units such as idioms or collocations. Its main goal is to organize information in such a way as to establish general patterns for lexical compounding. Initially, an analysis of different approaches to compounding in Traditional Grammar literature is made. Then, as the unexplained aspects of compounding in those approaches are identified, the goal of defining compounds in Portuguese is pursued in the analysis of structuralist and posterior approaches and their attempts to define the word as a linguistic unit. The results of the research reveal that, even though a few formations do behave as compounds under all relevant - phonological, morphological, syntactic and semantic - criteria, there are many others that differ from common syntactic sequences, only with respect to one of the mentioned parameters, more frequently the semantic one. We can also conclude from our analysis that many word sequences do not correspond to morphological units, in spite of the fact that they are lexicalized and thus perceived as lexical units by the speaker of Portuguese.

Monte Carlo simulations on a graphics processor unit with applications in inertial navigation

Roets, Sarel Frederik 12 March 2012 (has links)
M.Ing. / The Graphics Processor Unit (GPU) has been in the gaming industry for several years now. Of late though programmers and scientists have started to use the parallel processing or stream processing capabilities of the GPU in general numerical applications. The Monte Carlo method is a processing intensive methods, as it evaluates systems with stochastic components. The stochastic components require several iterations of the systems to develop an idea of how the systems reacts to the stochastic inputs. The stream processing capabilities of GPUs are used for the analysis of such systems. Evaluating low-cost Inertial Measurement Units (IMU) for utilisation in Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) is a processing intensive process. The non-deterministic or stochastic error components of the IMUs output signal requires multiple simulation runs to properly evaluate the IMUs performance when applied as input to an INS. The GPU makes use of stream processing, which allows simultaneous execution of the same algorithm on multiple data sets. Accordingly Monte Carlo techniques are applied to create trajectories for multiple possible outputs of the INS based on stochastically varying inputs from the IMU. The processing power of the GPU allows simultaneous Monte Carlo analysis of several IMUs. Each IMU requires a sensor error model, which entails calibration of each IMU to obtain numerical values for the main error sources of lowcost IMUs namely scale factor, non-orthogonality, bias, random walk and white noise. Three low-cost MEMS IMUs was calibrated to obtain numerical values for their sensor error models. Simultaneous Monte Carlo analysis of each of the IMUs is then done on the GPU with a resulting circular error probability plot. The circular error probability indicates the accuracy and precision of each IMU relative to a reference trajectory and the other IMUs trajectories. Results obtained indicate the GPU to be an alternative processing platform, for large amounts of data, to that of the CPU. Monte Carlo simulations on the GPU was performed 200 % faster than Monte Carlo simulations on the CPU. Results obtained from the Monte Carlo simulations, indicated the Random Walk error to be the main source of error in low-cost IMUs. The CEP results was used to determine the e ect of the various error sources on the INS output.

Unidades de ZCpn / Units of ZCp^n

Kitani, Patricia Massae 02 March 2012 (has links)
Seja Cp um grupo cíclico de ordem p, onde p é um número primo tal que S = {1, , 1+\\theta, 1+\\theta+\\theta^2, · · · , 1 +\\theta + · · · + \\theta ^{p-3/2}} gera o grupo das unidades de Z[\\theta] e é uma raiz p-ésima primitiva da unidade sobre Q. No artigo \"Units of ZCp\" , Ferraz apresentou um modo simples de encontrar um conjunto de geradores independentes para o grupo das unidades do anel de grupo ZCp sobre os inteiros. Nós estendemos este resultado para ZCp^n , considerando que um conjunto similar a S gera o grupo das unidades de Z[\\theta]. Isto ocorre, por exemplo, quando \\phi(p^n)\\leq 66. Descrevemos o grupo das unidades de ZCp^n como o produto ±ker(\\pi_1) × Im(\\pi1), onde \\pi_1 é um homomorfismo de grupos. Além disso, explicitamos as bases de ker(\\pi_1) e Im(\\pi_1). / Let Cp be a cyclic group of order p, where p is a prime integer such that S = {1, , 1 + \\theta, 1 +\\theta +\\theta ^2 , · · · , 1 + \\theta + · · · +\\theta ^{p-3/2}} generates the group of units of Z[\\theta] and is a primitive pth root of 1 over Q. In the article \"Units of ZCp\" , Ferraz gave an easy way to nd a set of multiplicatively independent generators of the group of units of the integral group ring ZCp . We extended this result for ZCp^n , provided that a set similar to S generates the group of units of Z[\\theta]. This occurs, for example, when \\phi(p^n)\\leq 66. We described the group of units of ZCp^n as the product ±ker(\\pi_1) × Im(\\pi_1), where \\pi_1 is a group homomorphism. Moreover, we explicited a basis of ker(\\pi_1) and I m(\\pi_1).
