modeling and simulation of communication circuits at high frequency are important challenges ahead in the design and construction of these circuits. knowing the fact that the lumped element model is not valid at high frequency, distributed analysis is presented based on active and passive transmission lines theory. in this paper, a lossy transmission line model of traveling wave switch (twsw) i...

Automatic data transfer generation is a critical step for guided or automatic code generation for accelerators using distributed memories. Although good results have been achieved for loop nests, more complex control ows such as switches or while loops are generally not handled. This paper shows how to leverage the convex array regions abstraction to generate data transfers. The scope of this s...

We have recently presented an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system operating on Frisian-Dutch code-switched speech. This type of speech requires careful handling of unexpected language switches that may occur in a single utterance. In this paper, we extend this work by using some raw broadcast data to improve multilingually trained deep neural networks (DNN) that have been trained on 11.5 ...

Robust and effortless spatial orientation critically relies on "automatic and obligatory spatial updating", a largely automatized and reflex-like process that transforms our mental egocentric representation of the immediate surroundings during ego-motions. A rapid pointing paradigm was used to assess automatic/obligatory spatial updating after visually displayed upright rotations with or withou...

The complexity of operating a farm combine has increased dramatically in recent years with the introduction of features including automatic guidance, precision farming, and sophisticated implements with specialized controls. In this work, we describe the development of a virtual reality interface for use in operating a combine while harvesting virtual crops. Using the actual combine cab hardwar...

Substantial research has addressed the problems of automatic search, routing, and sensor tasking for UAVs, producing many good algorithms for each task. But UAV surveillance missions typically include combinations of these tasks, so an algorithm that can manage and control UAVs through multiple tasks is desired. The algorithm in this paper employs a cooperative graph-based search when target st...
