Sentence examples for diffusion chain from inspiring English sources

For example, [56] reports that 'after controlling for News Feed exposure variables, neither demographic characteristics nor number of Facebook friends seems to play an important role in the prediction of maximum diffusion chain length'.

What Kirby and colleagues show is that when the initial input to a diffusion chain is a reasonably complex set of arbitrary signal/signifier pairs, e.g. one in which 27 complex signals of 6 letters are randomly assigned to 27 objects varying on dimensions of color, kind of motion, and shape, what is transmitted becomes more and more compositional over iterated transmission.

In a diffusion chain learning situation what a chain member has actually learned from an earlier member of the chain is presented as the input to the next learner, and what that learner has actually learned provides the input to the following learner.

They used an ingenious methodology, called the linear diffusion chain, to model the transmission and modification of caricatures over generations.

Iterated learning has been studied in both computational and laboratory experiments by means of diffusion chains, i.e., sequences of learners.

The children's game called 'Telephone' in the USA ('Chinese Whispers' in the UK), provides an example of diffusion chains under which what is transmitted is not stable.

The plastic deformation involves affine expansion and contraction, development of crystallographic fault lines (slip planes), edge dislocations, curved lattice planes and longitudinal diffusion of chains out of the crystal.

Both transverse chain diffusion within the lamella and longitudinal diffusion along the chain axis are studied separately.

Intra-particle termination is explained in terms of diffusion-controlled chain-length-dependent events.

Unlike non-polymeric materials, polymers do not dissolve instantaneously, and the dissolution is controlled by either the disentanglement of the polymer chains or by the diffusion of the chains through a boundary layer adjacent to the polymer solvent interface.

Here, the chain diffusion was decreased by the microdomain structure.
