We describe an open-source toolkit for statistical machine translation whose novel contributions are (a) support for linguistically motivated factors, (b) confusion network decoding, and (c) efficient data formats for translation models and language models. In addition to the SMT decoder

in the domain of troubleshooting digital circuits. This research makes several novel contributions: First, the system diagnoses failures due to multiple faults. Second, failure candidates are represented and manipulated in terms of minimal sets of violated assumptions, resulting in an efficient diagnostic

of a single uncontrolled camera, achieving real time but drift-free performance inaccessible to Structure from Motion approaches. The core of the approach is the online creation of a sparse but persistent map of natural landmarks within a probabilistic framework. Our key novel contributions include

sequential data. In particular, the main novel technical contributions of this thesis are as follows: a way of representing Hierarchical HMMs as DBNs, which enables inference to be done in O(T) time instead of O(T 3), where T is the length of the sequence; an exact smoothing algorithm that takes O(log T

by a clear strategy that arose from a theoretical analysis of the scheduling algorithm: concentrate on minimizing overheads that contribute to the work, even at the expense of overheads that contribute to the critical path. Although it may seem counterintuitive to move overheads onto the critical path

Amplitude Probability Distribution (APD) has been proposed within CISPR as a measure of the emitted electromagnetic energy from electrical equipment. In an earlier paper, the connection between the APD of a disturbance and its effect on digital communication system was presented. However, a tractable way to put a requirement on the APD has until now not been presented. This paper shows a possible approach to design emission requirements on the APD. By letting a measured APD of a disturbance lie below the requirements, the impact on a variety of receivers are guaranteed to not exceed the maximal bit error probability.

and compilers. The new Java model provides a simple interface for correctly synchronized programs – it guarantees sequential consistency to data-race-free programs. Its novel contribution is requiring that the behavior of incorrectly synchronized programs be bounded by a well defined notion of causality

and novel alternative splicing events. Adding to previous studies, the results indicate that at least 74 % of human multi-exon genes are alternatively spliced. Alternative pre-mRNA splicing is expected to make an important contribution to the complexity of the human proteome and at least half of human genes

and of processor failures and joins. The contribution of this paper is in providing an aggregate definition of communication and control services over broadcast domains. The main benefit is the efficient implementation of these services using the broadcast capability. In addition, the membership algorithm has a
