Abstract:
Nonlinear methods of fractal analysis and recurrence quantification analysis are becoming more commonplace in the cognitive and behavioral sciences. These methods are illustrated here in a tutorial style using self-paced reading data. Self-paced reading was performed in which each spacebar press revealed a story word-by-word or else sentence-by-sentence. Participant readers were either Ph.D. candidates in English literature or undergraduates from an introductory psychology course and the same story was read by all, either one time only or reread another time on another occasion. The nonlinear analyses revealed crucial differences between the word unit and sentence unit conditions. Performance in the word unit condition was dominated by a task specific strategy, yielding data patterns more like those observed in tapping tasks. Nonlinear analyses of the sentence unit condition, however, discriminated between graduate and undergraduate readers, and first readings of the story from re-reading. From these analyses, the repeated reading of the same story reveals a kind of über-fluency, in a manner of speaking, of the Ph.D. candidates in English literature, whose performance stayed at or closer to a performance ceiling in both readings.

Abstract:
The development of modern information technologies changes the forms of presenting educational material in modern learning conditions. On the one hand, there are new opportunities for the rational organization of the text (using the hypertext structure). On the other hand, due to the fragmentation of information, specific additional skills are required for more effective mastering of a foreign language. In the course of our theoretical research, it was found that hyper-reading as a new reading strategy is a quick search for the required information, during which only individual fragments of text are read. It is based on ordinary types of reading. It makes it possible to use modern information technologies and includes the following techniques: filtering, skimming, non-linear selection, value determination, filming, borrowing, de-authorization and fragmentation. Filtering is associated with a greater degree of selectivity when working with nonlinear text. A quick scan allows for less reading. When determining the significance of a lexical unit, students clarify its meaning, they can make a commentary on the educational text. Filming involves relying on photo and video materials, taking into account the situation and context at the pre-text stage of work. Borrowing is aimed at structuring the educational material in accordance with the goals of the reader. De-authorization allows the reader to form his own idea of the content of the studied educational text, to interpret it. Fragmentation makes it possible to highlight the necessary fragments of text, to pay attention to the search for details or facts. These techniques are revealed in experimental work through a specially organized system of exercises for working with hypertext. The study found that hyper-reading as a new reading strategy allows students to activate the knowledge, skills, and abilities associated with traditional types of reading via hypertext.

Abstract:
Microgenetic patterns of adaptation on the Stroop task were assessed by means of the Serial Color-Word Test given 21 patients with bronchial asthma and 20 with duodenal peptic ulcer, who were compared with 41 normal controls matched for sex, age, and education. Two measures were calculated on each of the five trials of the test, one of linear change and one of nonlinear change in reading times. As predicted, patients presented more frequently patterns characterized by high nonlinear change and less frequently stabilized patterns (low linear and nonlinear change of reading speed). Linear and nonlinear change were then calculated on the five linear change scores and the five nonlinear change scores; again patients presented more frequently patterns characterized by high nonlinear change on both the linear change scores and nonlinear change scores and less frequently stabilized patterns. These findings indicate strong similarities between the adaptation patterns of patients with ulcer and asthma and the microgenetic patterns previously known to characterize neurotic and psychotic patients. Furthermore, scores on the Serial Color-Word Test also differentiated between ulcer and asthma groups.

Abstract:
The construction of meaning and inference generation considering low- and high- working memory span when readers read digital texts in L2 to criticize and to summarize were examined. Data collection included Reading Span Test, verbal protocol and post-reading tasks. The low-span group showed more misunderstandings in both purposes and a significant result of moderate correlation between reading time and reading to summarize. Both groups made more metacognitive comments when reading hypertexts to summarize and found strategies to cope with the demands of the nonlinear hypertext.

Abstract:
Researchers have noted a nonlinear association between reading instruction dosage (i.e., hours of instruction) and reading outcomes for Grade K–3 students with reading difficulties (K–3 SWRD). In this article, we propose a nonlinear meta-analysis as a method to identify both the maximum effect size and optimal dosage of reading interventions for K–3 SWRD using 26 peer-reviewed studies including 186 effect sizes. Results suggested the effect sizes followed a concave parabolic shape, such that increasing dosage improved intervention effects until 39.92 hours of instruction (dmax = 0.77), after which the intervention effects declined. Moderator analyses found that maximum intervention effects on fluency outcomes were significantly larger (dmax = 1.34) than the overall maximum effect size. Also, when students received 1:1 instruction, the dosage response curve displayed a different functional form than the concave parabolic shape, showing the effect increased indefinitely after approximately 16.8 hours of instruction. Implications for research and practice are discussed.

Abstract:
During reading, our eyes perform complicated sequences of fixations on words. Stochastic models of eye movement control suggest that this seemingly erratic behavior can be attributed to noise in the oculomotor system and random fluctuations in lexical processing. Here, we present a qualitative analysis of a recently published dynamical model [Engbert et al., 2002] and propose that deterministic nonlinear control accounts for much of the observed complexity of eye movement patterns during reading. Based on a symbolic coding technique we analyze robust statistical features of simulated fixation sequences.

Abstract:
The intelligent analysis of electrical parameters has been facilitated by the Internet of Things (IoT), with capabilities to access a lot of data with customized sampling times. On the contrary, binary classifiers using support vector machines (SVM) resolve nonlinear cases through kernel functions. This work presents two binary classifiers of presence in the home using total household active power data obtained from the automated reading of an IoT device. The classifiers consisted of SVM using kernel functions, a linear function, and a nonlinear function. The data was acquired with the Emporia Gen 2 Vue energy monitor for 20 days without interruption, obtaining averaged readings every 15 min. Of these data, 75% was for training the classifiers, and the rest of the data was for validation. Contrary to expectations, the evaluation yielded accuracies of 91.67% for the nonlinear SVM and 92.71% for the linear SVM, concluding that there was similar performance.

Abstract:
Two age- and education-matched groups of 45 women, respectively, with the diagnoses of Bulimia and of Temporo-mandibular Joint Disorder, were administered the Serial Color-Word Test, to assess differences in the pattern of adaptation to conflict (the latter being represented by the Stroop task). Three types of norms (clinical, nonclinical and based on reading times) and the functions derived from a previous cluster analysis were employed. Comparisons utilizing clinical norms and cluster analytical functions did not significantly differentiate between groups. According to both nonclinical norms and norms based on reading rimes, the two clinical groups were significantly different concerning the distribution of adaptation patterns. Bulimic patients resorted more often to the Dissociative pattern (high nonlinear change of reading times), while temporomandibular patients were characterized by the Cumulative pattern (high linear change) and, secondarily, by the Cumulative-Dissociative pattern (high linear and nonlinear change). Intergroup differences were more marked when employing the new norms based on reading times.

Abstract:
In a pool of 859 clinical and nonclinical Serial Color-Word Test protocols, significant positive correlations were observed between reading times on the Stroop task and measures of linear and nonlinear change. Especially nonlinear change, both within and between the five subtests, showed high correlations with reading times. To derive new time-related norms, the sample was divided into five time groups of the same size and stratified medians were calculated for each of the variables of the test. The new classification procedure should permit an assessment of patterns of adaptation less dependent on the general level of perceptual-cognitive functioning.

Abstract:
The analysis of the transformations occurring in the world of reading and the comparison between traditional reading and online reading are the central themes of this research. If, in a certain historical and cultural season, reading hypertext has seemed to correspond to a more active role of the reader, to his release from the "constraints" presumably cumbersome linear texts, a growing body of empirical data found that the hypertextual formats, often results in disorientation and cognitive overload. The latest studies on the online reading comprehension confirm these early findings and reveal further complexities related to the typical features of the Web. By combining a thoughtful intent and a more operational way, this analysis focuses on the processes involved in the new form of online reading, coming finally to explore the effects of using a metacognitive technique (Think Aloud) to teach to move strategically on the Internet. In many respects, the results of this study have confirmed the validity of a program for online reading teaching once the young reader has passed the stage of '"learning to read" and has made entry into the the "reading to learn." It is, now, to further expand this knowledge base.L'analisi delle trasformazioni intervenute nell'universo del leggere e il confronto fra lettura tradizionale e lettura del corpus ipertestuale online sono i temi centrali di questa ricerca. Se, in una certa stagione storico-culturale, la lettura di ipertesti è sembrata corrispondere a un ruolo più attivo del lettore, a una sua liberazione dai “vincoli” presumibilmente ingombranti dei testi lineari, una mole crescente di dati empirici ha rilevato che l'organizzazione in forma reticolare, spesso, si traduce in disorientamento e maggiore impegno cognitivo. Gli studi più recenti sulla comprensione della lettura dei testi online confermano tali prime evidenze e svelano ulteriori complessità legate alle tipicità del Web. Abbinando un intento teorico e riflessivo a un proposito di carattere più operativo, l'analisi si sofferma sui processi implicati nella nuova forma di lettura, giungendo infine a esplorare gli effetti dell'uso di una tecnica metacognitiva per insegnare a muoversi strategicamente in rete. Gli esiti di questo studio hanno, per molti aspetti, confermato la validità di un percorso che prevede un insegnamento all'elaborazione dei testi online una volta che il giovane lettore ha superato la fase dell'“imparare a leggere” e ha fatto ingresso in quella del “leggere per imparare”. Si tratta, adesso, di ampliare ulteriormente questa base conoscitiva.

Full text
Abstract:
One difficulty for the successful implementation of holographic data storage is having the ability to read data without affecting the data. Thermal fixing[1] as well as two-photon techniques[2] have been investigated as possible solutions. Reading data with a wavelength other than that which the data had been written is another viable alternative. Furthermore, choosing a reading wavelength that corresponds to a laser of a more favorable size, price, or ease of use could also be a benefit of such a system. Külich has previously investigated how to minimize the error induced due to reading and writing using different wavelengths by reading data with a spherical beam[3]. Psaltis et al. later introduced a formatting technique to allow a page to be read with a different wavelength by writing the page of data in pieces using several reference angles[4]. For digital data to be accurately read with an acceptable amount of mismatch, a three-dimensional mapping of the data must be applied to a system using this formatting technique. Optimization of such a system then requires the investigation of mismatch as a parameter effecting the diffraction efficiency.

Optical information was holographically stored, retrieved, erased and overwritten on new azo-dye doped PMMA guest-host films. The information is stored in the form of highly localized dichroism and birefringence of the polymer films, induced by spatially modulated polarization and intensity of writing light. In this paper, we are presenting new data concerning the dynamic behaviour of these films. We have also investigated the effect of the intensity of the reading beam on the storage time of these polymeric systems.

Holographic storage offers many advantages over conventional storage methods, however, readout of information cannot be made non-destructive without special fixing procedures, such as thermal and electrical fixing. Several other techniques enabling non-destructive readout of information have been investigated, including two-photon recording in singe species crystals[1], and sensitizing with a short wavelength and recording and reading with a long wavelength with two species[2,3]. The last method has the advantage of allowing each species to be chosen, so that the photorefractive properties can be optimized while retaining the information during readout.

Full text
Abstract:
Optical gap solitons are a promising approach towards the realization of all-optical buffers and memories in nonlinear waveguides with Bragg resonant gratings [1]. In fact they permit to localize the e.m. energy at zero-velocity in the laboratory frame, in a frequency range where the linear propagation is otherwise forbidden. A recent experiment on slowly-traveling localized states has been reported by Eggleton et al. in an index-modulated fiber through the Kerr effect [2]. However, the trapping of zero velocity solitons within the grating is still an open issue, despite the fact that perfectly steady gap solitons could become the basic elements in all-optical memories. More recently, in the context of parametric quadratic effects, structures with distributed-feedback gratings (DFBG), Bragg-coupled to one or both frequencies in media for Second-Harmonic Generation (SH G), have been shown to support two-color gap solitons, i.e. localized energy states of trapped field components at the fundamental (FF) and its second harmonic (SH), based on the interplay of grating dispersion, parametric gain and cascading phase shifts [3-7]. In this Communication we numerically demonstrate that stationary gap simultons can be excited in a quadratically nonlinear DBFG via inelastic scattering of pulses launched at the FF, and can be detected using a similar ”reading” beam.

The results of numerical examples studying nonlinear systems subjected to random excitations are presented to illustrate some peculiar features of fuzzy control.
