Influence of interaction techniques o n VIMS in virtual environments : estimation and prediction
2014
Understanding oculo-vestibular dynamics during sensory rearrangement in the central nervous system plays an extremely important role in better understanding human perception, and improves the technology in many engineering fields. Besides, the sensory conflict that occurs between ocular, vestibular and proprioception during sensory rearrangement at certain occasions might adversely affect the user performance in a wide variety of domains including flight/car simulators, scale-one 3D systems, large-scale displays, serious games, and so on. Therefore, knowing the condition in which the sensory conflict happens has a great deal of importance. This study aims at understanding the nature of sens…
Rigotrio At Semeval-2017 Task 9: Combining Machine Learning And Grammar Engineering For Amr Parsing And Generation
2017
By addressing both text-to-AMR parsing and AMR-to-text generation, SemEval-2017 Task 9 established AMR as a powerful semantic interlingua. We strengthen the interlingual aspect of AMR by applying the multilingual Grammatical Framework (GF) for AMR-to-text generation. Our current rule-based GF approach completely covered only 12.3% of the test AMRs, therefore we combined it with state-of-the-art JAMR Generator to see if the combination increases or decreases the overall performance. The combined system achieved the automatic BLEU score of 18.82 and the human Trueskill score of 107.2, to be compared to the plain JAMR Generator results. As for AMR parsing, we added NER extensions to our SemEva…
AnyDSL: a partial evaluation framework for programming high-performance libraries
2023
This paper advocates programming high-performance code using partial evaluation. We present a clean-slate programming system with a simple, annotation-based, online partial evaluator that operates on a CPS-style intermediate representation. Our system exposes code generation for accelerators (vectorization/parallelization for CPUs and GPUs) via compiler-known higher-order functions that can be subjected to partial evaluation. This way, generic implementations can be instantiated with target-specific code at compile time. In our experimental evaluation we present three extensive case studies from image processing, ray tracing, and genome sequence alignment. We demonstrate that using partial …

Towards Successful Implementation of a Virtual Classroom for Vocational Higher Education in Indonesia
2019
The virtual classroom continues to grow, but it is becoming more and more the norm, and it is fundamentally different from the vocational students at the Indonesian university. With the promised benefits of the virtual classroom, many challenges and difficulties come in the implementation. Although there are already successful design principles for virtual classrooms that support organizations in overcoming the challenges, the approach to implementing the design principles of virtual classroom at the vocational higher education in Indonesia is still lacking. In this study, we aim to answer the research gap and used the design sciences research by interviewing the lecturers to design the sol…
An Efficient Hardware Architecture for the HEVC Intra Prediction
2014
International audience; A novel intra prediction hardware architecture forthe High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) is presented in thispaper in order to reduce the computation complexity within thisstandard and to accelerate the concerned calculations, and thusto process more and more of video frames at high resolutions. Wepropose a new pipelined structure that we called ProcessingElement (PE) to calculate the angular prediction modes, and werepeat it in three paths that our design composed of. And wepresent, in this paper, a dynamic structure to carry out thePlanar mode. This architecture supports all intra predictionmodes for 8x8 and 4x4 prediction unit sizes. The synthesis resultsshow tha…
Image guidance to improve reliability and data integrity of transcranial Doppler sonography.
2012
Abstract Background Principles and accuracy of image-guided transcranial Doppler (IG TCD) sonography have been published recently. However, it remains open whether combination of image guidance and TCD offers an additional clinical advantage. This study scores the accuracy of conventional TCD examinations and investigates the potential improvement of TCD data integrity and reliability regarding the additional use of IG. Methods Conventional TCD was performed by a group of experienced investigators, who were blinded to images of a navigation system tracking the Doppler probe, whereas an independent observer documented the TCD findings, acquired by the investigators, due to saving spatial dat…
An Intra-Subject Approach Based on the Application of HMM to Predict Concentration in Educational Contexts from Nonintrusive Physiological Signals in…
2021
Previous research has proven the strong influence of emotions on student engagement and motivation. Therefore, emotion recognition is becoming very relevant in educational scenarios, but there is no standard method for predicting students’ affects. However, physiological signals have been widely used in educational contexts. Some physiological signals have shown a high accuracy in detecting emotions because they reflect spontaneous affect-related information, which is fresh and does not require additional control or interpretation. Most proposed works use measuring equipment for which applicability in real-world scenarios is limited because of its high cost and intrusiveness. To tackle this…
A New Dynamic Model for Anticipatory Adaptive Control of Airline Seat Reservation via Order Statistics of Cumulative Customer Demand
2017
This paper deals with dynamic anticipatory adaptive control of airline seat reservation for the stochastic customer demand that occurs over time T before the flight is scheduled to depart. It is assumed that time T is divided into m periods, namely a full fare period and m−1 discounted fare periods. The fare structure is given. An airplane has a seat capacity of U. For the sake of simplicity, but without loss of generality, we consider (for illustration) the case of nonstop flight with two fare classes (business and economy). The proposed policies of the airline seat inventory control are based on the use of order statistics of cumulative customer demand, which have such properties as bivar…
Dynamic Analysis of a 7 DOF Robot Using Fuzzy Logic for Inverse Kinematics Problem
2019
Abstract In this paper, a dynamic analysis for a redundant, serial robot, with seven degrees of freedom is presented. The dynamic model of the robot is based on importing a tri-dimensional CAD model of the robot into MATLAB®, Simulink®-Simscape™-SimMechanics™. One can import complete CAD assemblies, including all masses, inertias, joints, constraints, and tri-dimensional geometries, into the model. The first step for executing a dynamic analysis is to resolve the Inverse Kinematics (IK) problem for the redundant robot. Because this type of robot has seven degrees of freedom the IK resolution implies an infinite number of solutions. So, to be able to resolve the IK for this kind of robot a F…
