In this technical note the rf control and detection system for a detector of small harmonic displacements based on two coupled microwave cavities (PACO) is presented. The basic idea underlying this detector is the principle of parametric power conversion between two resonant modes of the system, stimulated by the (small) harmonic modulation of one system parameter. In this experiment we change ...

We present a collection of parallel treebanks that have been automatically aligned on both the terminal and the nonterminal constituent level for use in syntax-based machine translation. We describe how they were constructed and applied to a syntaxand example-based machine translation system called Parse and Corpus-Based Machine Translation (PaCo-MT). For the language pair Dutch to English, we ...

themes as identity-development, autonomy, Christian values, and social repression, some of her short stories are also invaluable contributions to the consistent messages of feminism and social criticism present in much of her work. Greatly masked by Catholic themes such as charity, love and sacrifice—partially resulting from the author's own spiritual conversion in December 1951— the stories' s...

Previous research on building intelligent tutoring systems has not leveraged general models of collaborative discourse, even though tutoring is an inherently collaborative and often discourse-based activity. Similarly, previous research on collaborative discourse theory has rarely addressed tutorial issues, even though teaching and learning are crucial components of collaboration. We help bridg...

Aim. To compare respiratory mechanics and gas exchange in patients with acute distress syndrome (ARDS) without COVID-19. Material methods. We examined 96 patients, who were divided into two groups. The main group included 48 COVID-19-associated ARDS. control ARDS not associated Most characteristic selected for the following baseline parameters: age, sex, SAPS II score, disease severity, plateau...

The advent of new technologies such as high dynamic range or 8K screens has enhanced the quality digital images but it also increased codecs’ computational demands to process data. This paper presents a video codec that, while providing same coding features and performance those JPEG2000, can 16K in real time using consumer-grade GPU. throughput is achieved with technique that introduces comple...
