CESTA, the first European Campaign dedicated to MT Evaluation, is a project labelled by the French Technolangue action. CESTA provides an evaluation of six commercial and academic MT systems using a protocol set by an international panel of experts. CESTA aims at producing reusable resources and information about reliability of the metrics. Two runs will be carried out: one using the system’s b...

Koffka's (1935, pp. 224-235) explanation of shape-constancy is based on the assumption of an invariant linkage between slant and shape. Koffka's hypothesis has been formulated in the following way by Beck and Gibson (1955): "A retinal projection of a given form determines a unique relation of apparent shape to apparent slant" (p. 126). The invariance hypothesis requires that perceived shape var...

Introduction The acknowledged move from traditional public administration (TPA), over to new management (NPM), then the current shift towards governance (NPG) has spurred an increased awareness on role of external stakeholders in developing services, and hence way sector innovation takes place (Hartley, 2005; Torfing, 2019).

The paper presents two new linear systolic architectures for the one-dimensional discrete Hartley transform (DHT). Both architectures exhibit several desired features such as regularity, modularity and high pipelineability, which make them amenable to VLSI hardware implementation. In addition these new architectures use the CORDIC (co-ordinate rotation digital computer) algorithm as the basic f...

Autonomous navigation (AutoNav) for deep space missions is a unique capability that was developed at JPL and used successfully for every camera-equipped comet encounter flown by NASA (Borrelly, Wild 2, Tempel 1, and Hartley 2), as well as an asteroid flyby (Annefrank). AutoNav is the first on-board software to perform autonomous interplanetary navigation (image processing, trajectory determinat...

In this paper the authors propose a new closed contour descriptor that could be seen as a Feature Extractor of closed contours based on the Discrete Hartley Transform (DHT), its main characteristic is that uses only half of the coefficients required by Elliptical Fourier Descriptors (EFD) to obtain a contour approximation with similar error measure. The proposed closed contour descriptor provid...

The Fast Hartley Transform (FHT), a discrete version of the Hartley Transform (HT), has been studied in various papers and shown to be faster and more convenient to implement and handle than the corresponding Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). As the HT is not as nicely separable as the Fourier Transform (FT), a multidimensional version of the HT needs to perform a final correction step to convert t...

This paper presents empirical evidence for the orthogonality of the DIT multidimensional dialogue act annotation scheme, showing that the ten dimensions of communication which underly this scheme are addressed independently in natural dialogue.
