DAVID MERRITT Rochester Institute of Technology Rochester I enjoyed Deutscher's description of how some languages rely primarily on geographical coordinates instead of egocentric coordinates to describe direction, even to the point of telling someone to take "three steps east" or "bend southwest" instead of simply "move to your right" or "bend backward".
Current models of direction relations are not designed to describe direction information inside the Minimum Bounding Rectangle (MBR) of a reference region.
To resolve this problem, a new model of direction relations, namely interior boundary direction relations, is proposed in this study to describe direction concepts relative to the interior or boundary of a region, such as "east part of a region", "west border of a region", "a line goes through east part of a region", and etc.
These vectors describe directions along which genes can be ordered according to treatment response.
Our model should therefore be considered an explorative model, describing directions of associations, but not confirming causality.
As Mr. Gabbana described the direction, it is "more sensual than sexual".
That underestimates Mr Miliband, who has described the direction he wants the British economy to take.
For all SNPs described, the direction of effect (higher risk or lower risk of HIV transmission) was consistent across mode of transmission (Additional file 1).
A set of novel features are proposed and described, including directions, curvatures, tortuosities, chain codes, and edge-based directional features.
The fashion flock has a kooky way of describing seasonal direction, saying things like, "This season is all about Dickens".
