Linguistic Intelligence
Verbal intelligence is the Verbal reasoning, ability to understand and reason using concepts framed in words. More broadly, it is linked to problem solving, Abstraction, abstract reasoning, and working memory. Verbal intelligence is one of the most g factor (psychometrics), ''g''-loaded abilities. Linguistic intelligence In order to understand linguistic intelligence, it is important to understand the Mechanism (biology), mechanisms that control speech and language. These mechanisms can be broken down into four major groups: speech, speech generation (talking), speech comprehension (hearing), Writing, writing generation (writing), and Reading (process), writing comprehension (reading). In a practical sense, linguistic intelligence is the extent to which an individual can use language, both written and verbal, to achieve goals. Linguistic intelligence is a part of Howard Gardner's Theory of multiple intelligences, multiple intelligence theory that deals with individuals' ability ...

Indigenization
Indigenization is the act of making something more indigenous; transformation of some service, idea, etc. to suit a local culture, especially through the use of more indigenous people in public administration, employment and other fields. The term is primarily used by anthropologists to describe what happens when locals take something from the outside and make it their own (such as: Africanization or Americanization). History History of the word The first use of the word ''indigenization'' recorded by the OED is in a 1951 paper about studies conducted in India about Christian missionaries. The word was used to describe the process of making churches indigenous in southern India. It was used in ''The Economist'' in 1962 to describe managerial positions and in the 1971 book ''English Language in West Africa'' by John Spencer, where it was used to describe the adoption of English. Indigenization is often used to describe the adoption of colonial culture in Africa because o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Local Theory
In physics, the principle of locality states that an object is influenced directly only by its immediate surroundings. A theory that includes the principle of locality is said to be a "local theory". This is an alternative to the concept of instantaneous, or "non-local" action at a distance. Locality evolved out of the field theories of classical physics. The idea is that for a cause at one point to have an effect at another point, something in the space between those points must mediate the action. To exert an influence, something, such as a wave or particle, must travel through the space between the two points, carrying the influence. The special theory of relativity limits the maximum speed at which causal influence can travel to the speed of light, c. Therefore, the principle of locality implies that an event at one point cannot cause a truly simultaneous result at another point. An event at point A cannot cause a result at point B in a time less than T=D/c, where D is th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Economic Globalisation
Economic globalization is one of the three main dimensions of globalization commonly found in academic literature, with the two others being political globalization and cultural globalization, as well as the general term of globalization. Economic globalization refers to the widespread international movement of goods, capital, services, technology and information. It is the increasing economic integration and interdependence of national, regional, and local economies across the world through an intensification of cross-border movement of goods, services, Technology, technologies and capital. Economic globalization primarily comprises the globalization of production, finance, markets, technology, organizational regimes, institutions, corporations, and people.James et al., vols. 1–4 (2007) While economic globalization has been expanding since the emergence of International trade, trans-national trade, it has grown at an increased rate due to improvements in the efficiency of lon ...

Localization Era
Several periodisations are employed for the periodisation of the Indus Valley Civilisation. While the Indus Valley Civilisation was divided into Early, Mature, and Late Harappan by archaeologists like Mortimer Wheeler, newer periodisations include the Neolithic early farming settlements, and use a stage–phase model, often combining terminology from various systems. Periodisations The most commonly used nomenclature classifies the Indus Valley civilisation into early, mature, and late Harappan phases. The Indus Valley Civilisation was preceded by local agricultural villages, from where the river plains were populated when water management became available, creating an integrated civilisation. This broader time range has also been called the Indus Age and the Indus Tradition. Early, Mature, and Late Harappan Early surveys by Sir Aurel Stein in Balochistan led to the discovery of numerous prehistoric sites of unknown association. Following excavations at Harappa and Mohenjo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Supersymmetric Localization
Supersymmetric localization is a method to exactly compute correlation functions of supersymmetric operators in certain supersymmetric quantum field theories such as the partition function, supersymmetric Wilson loops, etc. The method can be seen as an extension of the Berline–Vergne– Atiyah– Bott formula (or the Duistermaat–Heckman formula) for equivariant integration to path integrals of certain supersymmetric quantum field theories. Although the method cannot be applied to general local operators, it does provide the full nonperturbative answer for the restricted class of supersymmetric operators. It is a powerful tool which is currently extensively used in the study of supersymmetric quantum field theory. The method, built on the previous works by E.Witten, in its modern form involves subjecting the theory to a nontrivial supergravity background, such that the fermionic symmetry preserved by the latter can be used to perform the localization computation, as in.

Weak Localization
Weak localization is a physical effect which occurs in disordered electronic systems at very low temperatures. The effect manifests itself as a ''positive'' correction to the resistivity of a metal or semiconductor. The name emphasizes the fact that weak localization is a precursor of Anderson localization, which occurs at strong disorder. General principle The effect is quantum-mechanical in nature and has the following origin: In a disordered electronic system, the electron motion is diffusive rather than ballistic. That is, an electron does not move along a straight line, but experiences a series of random scatterings off impurities which results in a random walk. The resistivity of the system is related to the probability of an electron to propagate between two given points in space. Classical physics assumes that the total probability is just the sum of the probabilities of the paths connecting the two points. However quantum mechanics tells us that to find the total probabi ...

Anderson Localization
In condensed matter physics, Anderson localization (also known as strong localization) is the absence of diffusion of waves in a ''disordered'' medium. This phenomenon is named after the American physicist P. W. Anderson, who was the first to suggest that electron localization is possible in a lattice potential, provided that the degree of randomness (disorder) in the lattice is sufficiently large, as can be realized for example in a semiconductor with impurities or defects. Anderson localization is a general wave phenomenon that applies to the transport of electromagnetic waves, acoustic waves, quantum waves, spin waves, etc. This phenomenon is to be distinguished from weak localization, which is the precursor effect of Anderson localization (see below), and from Mott localization, named after Sir Nevill Mott, where the transition from metallic to insulating behaviour is ''not'' due to disorder, but to a strong mutual Coulomb repulsion of electrons.

Localization Theorem
In mathematics, particularly in integral calculus, the localization theorem allows, under certain conditions, to infer the nullity of a function (mathematics), function given only information about its continuity (mathematics), continuity and the value of its integral. Let be a real-valued function defined on some open interval (mathematics), interval Ω of the real line that is Continuous function, continuous in Ω. Let D be an arbitrary subinterval contained in Ω. The theorem states the following implication: \int_D F(x) \, \mathrmx = 0 ~ \forall D \subset \Omega ~ \Rightarrow ~ F(x) = 0 ~ \forall x \in \Omega A simple proof is as follows: if there were a point x0 within Ω for which , then the continuity of would require the existence of a neighborhood (mathematics), neighborhood of x0 in which the value of was nonzero, and in particular of the same sign than in x0. Since such a neighborhood N, which can be taken to be arbitrarily small, must however be of a nonzero width o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
