We investigate a basic premise of prospect theory, that the valuation of gains and losses is separable. In prospect theory, gain-loss separability implies that a mixed gamble is valued by summing the valuations of the gain and loss portions of that gamble. Two experimental studies demonstrate a systematic violation of the double matching axiom, an axiom that is necessary for gain-loss separabil...

Language resource quality is crucial in NLP. Many of the resources used are derived from data created by human beings out of an NLP context, especially regarding MT and reference translations. Indeed, automatic evaluations need highquality data that allow the comparison of both automatic and human translations. The validation of these resources is widely recommended before being used. This pape...

This paper presents nonlinear small gain theorems for both continuous time systems and discrete time systems in a general setting of input-to-output stability. Most small gain theorems in the past literature were stated for interconnected systems of which the subsystems are either input-to-state stable, or are input-to-output stable and satisfy an additional condition of input/output-to-state s...

Modular fixtures are usually built from standard elements that can be found in the modular element set of a certain manufacturer. But in some cases the user besides using these elements modifies some semi-finished elements that can also be found in the modular element set, or even the user produces some brand new elements. The motivation behind this can be to simplify the fixture, or to make th...

We report a novel approach to addressing the Raven’s Progressive Matrices (RPM) tests, one based upon purely visual representations. Our technique introduces the calculation of confidence in an answer and the automatic adjustment of level of resolution if that confidence is insufficient. We first describe the nature of the visual analogies found on the RPM. We then exhibit our algorithm and wor...

For speech disorders, state-of-the-art assessment is performed mainly perceptive. This causes a lot of effort. Speech processing techniques are applicable to perform an automatic and observer-independent evaluation of the speech intelligibility. High agreement between human raters and the automatic evaluation method were found. In this study we investigate, whether the automatic evaluation syst...

Safety and security are top concerns in maritime navigation, particularly as maritime traffic continues to grow and as crew sizes are reduced. The Automatic Identification System (AIS) plays a key role in regard to these concerns. This system, whose objective is in part to identify and locate vessels, transmits location-related information from vessels to ground stations that are part of a so-c...

In case of realization of successful business, gain analysis is essential. In this paper we have cited some new techniques of gain expectation on the basis of neural property of perceptron. Support rule and Sequence mining based artificial intelligence oriented practices have also been done in this context. In the view of above fuzzy and statistical based gain sensing is also pointed out.

Evaluation plays a vital role in checking the quality of MT output. It is done either manually or automatically. Manual evaluation is very time consuming and subjective, hence use of automatic metrics is done most of the times. This paper evaluates the translation quality of different MT Engines for Hindi-English (Hindi data is provided as input and English is obtained as output) using various ...
