چکیده

In complex grammar-based systems, even small changes may have an unforeseeable impact on overall system performance. Regression testing of the system and its components becomes crucial for the grammar engineers developing the system. As part of this regression testing, the testsuites themselves must be designed to accurately assess coverage and progress and to help rapidly identify problems. We describe a system of passage-query pairs divided into three types of phenomenon-based testsuites (sanity, query, basic correct). These allow for rapid development and for specific coverage assessment. In addition, real-world testsuites allow for overall performance and coverage assessment. These testsuites are used in conjunction with the more traditional representation-based regression testsuites used by grammar engineers.

Improving Testsuites via Instrumentation

This paper explores the usefulness of a technique from software engineering, namely code instrumentation, for the development of large-scale natural language grammars. Information about the usage of grammar rules in test sentences is used to detect untested rules, redundant test sentences, and likely causes of overgeneration. Results show that less than half of a large-coverage grammar for Germ...

Designing a hybrid quantum controller for strongly eigenstate controllable systems

 In this paper, a new quantum hybrid controller for controlling the strongly eigenstate controllable systems, is designed. For this purpose, a Lyapunov control law is implemented when the target state is in reachable set of the initial state. On the other hand, if the target state is not in the reachable set of the given initial state, based on Grover algorithm, a new interface state that the t...

Designing a Robust Control Scheme for Robotic Systems with an Adaptive Observer

This paper introduces a robust task-space control scheme for a robotic system with an adaptive observer. The proposed approach does not require the availability of the system states and an adaptive observer is developed to estimate the state variables. These estimated states are then used in the control scheme. First, the dynamic model of a robot is derived. Next, an observer-based robust contr...

Novel Four-Channel All Optical Demultiplexer Based on Square PhCRR for Using WDM Applications

Ring resonators have always been referred to as a highly flexible structurefor designing optical devices. In this study, we have designed and simulation a fourchannel optical demultiplexer using square photonic crystal ring resonator. The squarelattice constant for this purpose structure is used. The purposed structure has an averagecrosstalk, transmission coefficient, q...
