Language Detection and Tracking in Multilingual Documents Using Weak Estimators
2010
Published version of an article from the book: Structural, Syntactic, and Statistical Pattern Recognition . The original publication is available at Spingerlink. http://dx.doi.org/DOI: 10.1007/978-3-642-14980-1_59 This paper deals with the extremely complicated problem of language detection and tracking in real-life electronic (for example, in Word-of-Mouth (WoM)) applications, where various segments of the text are written in different languages. The difficulties in solving the problem are many-fold. First of all, the analyst has no knowledge of when one language stops and when the next starts. Further, the features which one uses for any one language (for example, the n-grams) will not be…
THE USE OF WEAK ESTIMATORS TO ACHIEVE LANGUAGE DETECTION AND TRACKING IN MULTILINGUAL DOCUMENTS
2013
This paper deals with the problems of language detection and tracking in multilingual online short word-of-mouth (WoM) discussions. This problem is particularly unusual and difficult from a pattern recognition perspective because, in these discussions, the participants and content involve the opinions of users from all over the world. The nature of these discussions, consisting of multiple topics in different languages, presents us with a problem of finding training and classification strategies when the class-conditional distributions are nonstationary. The difficulties in solving the problem are many-fold. First of all, the analyst has no knowledge of when one language stops and when the…
MuPix and ATLASPix -- Architectures and Results
2020
High Voltage Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (HV-MAPS) are based on a commercial High Voltage CMOS process and collect charge by drift inside a reversely biased diode. HV-MAPS represent a promising technology for future pixel tracking detectors. Two recent developments are presented. The MuPix has a continuous readout and is being developed for the Mu3e experiment whereas the ATLASPix is being developed for LHC applications with a triggered readout. Both variants have a fully monolithic design including state machines, clock circuitries and serial drivers. Several prototypes and design variants were characterised in the lab and in testbeam campaigns to measure efficiencies, noise, time reso…
Eye tracking and the translation process: reflections on the analysis and interpretation of eye-tracking data
2014
Eye tracking has become increasingly popular as a quantitative research method in translation research. This paper discusses some of the major methodological issues involved in the use of eye tracking in translation research. It focuses specifically on challenges in the analysis and interpretation of eye-tracking data as reflections of cognitive processes during translation. Four types of methodological issues are discussed in the paper. The first part discusses the preparatory steps that precede the actual recording of eye-tracking data. The second part examines critically the general assumptions linking eye movements to cognitive processing in the context of translation research. The thir…
Interaction Control of Robotic Manipulators Without Force Measurement
2010
This paper deals with a new adaptive force-position control of a robotic manipulator based on force estimation. Based on Lyapunov techniques will be proved that the control law guaranties tracking of the desired Cartesian trajectory along the contact plane and of a constant desired force along reciprocal direction, without force measuring. Extensive simulations with 2-DOF manipulator illustrates the followed approach.
Hierarchical fuzzy/Lyapunov control for horizontal plane trajectory tracking of underactuated AUV
2010
A new hierarchical closed loop fuzzy control system for horizontal plane trajectory tracking of underactuated Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV) is presented. A model for the AUV is formulated introducing a polar coordinates transformation for the velocities in the body fixed frame. It is employed to control the unactuated sway direction, the longitudinal position and the yaw by using the surge force and the yaw torque only. The highest level control is developed by employing a fuzzy inference system for obtaining the guidance control laws. The properties of the fuzzy system ensure forward surge velocity, fast convergence and Lyapunov's stability of the motion errors. A new low level kine…
Adaptive predictor control for stabilizing pressure in a managed pressure drilling system under time-delay
2016
Abstract In this paper, we address adaptive predictor feedback design for a simplified ODE drilling system in the presence of unknown parameter, disturbance and time-delay. The main objective is to stabilize the bottomhole pressure at a critical depth at a desired set-point directly. The time-delay in the transmission line of the drilling systems is considered. The stabilization of the dynamic system and the asymptotic tracking are demonstrated by the proposed predictor control, where the adaptation employs Lyapunov update law design with normalization. The proposed method is evaluated using a high fidelity drilling simulator and cases from a North Sea drilling operation are simulated. The …
Study of the tear effect with Eye tracking methodology: A pilot study
2018
Según Darwin, el lloro emocional fue considerado un resultado fortuito a la luz de la evolución; sin propósito alguno, y debía ser visto como una consecuencia secundaria a fenómenos más importantes. Aunque es el comportamiento más dramático por el cual las emociones emergen en el rostro, muy poco es lo que se sabe desde la neurociencia. El presente estudio tiene como objetivo demostrar que la idea de Darwin está lejos de ser cierta, y que el lloro emocional parece jugar un papel esencial en el desarrollo de las relaciones sociales, siendo un factor de influencia en la percepción de sinceridad. Estudios previos han encontrado una influencia en la inhibición de la agresión, y que favorece la …
NEXT-100 Technical Design Report (TDR). Executive summary
2012
[EN] In this Technical Design Report (TDR) we describe the NEXT-100 detector that will search for neutrinoless double beta decay (ßß0v) in 136XE at the Laboratorio Subterráneo de Canfranc (LSC), in Spain. The document formalizes the design presented in our Conceptual Design Report (CDR): an electroluminescence time projection chamber, with separate readout planes for calorimetry and tracking, located, respectively, behind cathode and anode. The detector is designed to hold a maximum of about 150 kg of xenon at 15 bar, or 100 kg at 10 bar. This option builds in the capability to increase the total isotope mass by 50% while keeping the operating pressure at a manageable level. The readout pla…
Bi- and uniciliated ependymal cells define continuous floor-plate-derived tanycytic territories
2017
Multiciliated ependymal (E1) cells line the brain ventricles and are essential for brain homeostasis. We previously identified in the lateral ventricles a rare ependymal subpopulation (E2) with only two cilia and unique basal bodies. Here we show that E2 cells form a distinct biciliated epithelium extending along the ventral third into the fourth ventricle. In the third ventricle floor, apical profiles with only primary cilia define an additional uniciliated (E3) epithelium. E2 and E3 cells' ultrastructure, marker expression and basal processes indicate that they correspond to subtypes of tanycytes. Using sonic hedgehog lineage tracing, we show that the third and fourth ventricle E2 and E3 …
