Objective: To present an overview on the current state of the art concerning metrics-based quality evaluation of software components and component assemblies. Method: Comparison of several approaches available in the literature, using a framework comprising several aspects, such as scope, intent, definition technique, and maturity. Results: The identification of common shortcomings of current a...

Conversational spoken dialogue systems that interact with the user rather than merely 1 reading text can be equipped with hesitations to manage the dialogue flow and the users’ attention. 2 Based on a series of empirical studies, we built an elaborated hesitation synthesis strategy for 3 dialogue systems that inserts hesitations of scalable extent wherever needed in the ongoing 4 utterance. So ...

background: survey of pollution and evaluation of water quality in rivers with oregon water quality index (owqi) and gis are effective tools for management of the impact of environmental water resources. the information in calculating the wqi of moradbeik river allowed us to take our tests results and make a scientific conclusion about the quality of water. gis can be a powerful tool for develo...

According to the needs and characteristics of software quality comprehensive assessment, the author systematically analyzes the drawback of the loss of a large amount of effective information caused by the calculation in the fuzzy synthesis evaluation algorithm as well as the defects of distortion among the intermediate data transformation in the processing of multi-level extensive evaluation a...

quently requested by software clients, Many clients seek products that maintain themselves or can be maintained by a third party. This model required considerable effort to develop, eventually resulting in a set of quality properties that are measurable from the source code and related to the subcharacteristics of quality proposed in ISO/IEC25010 (Table 1). • The Evaluation Environment which la...

Machine translation (MT) quality is evaluated through comparisons between MT outputs and the human translations (HT). Traditionally, this evaluation relies on form related features (e.g. lexicon and syntax) and ignores the transfer of meaning reflected in HT outputs. Instead, we evaluate the quality of MT outputs through meaning related features (e.g. polarity, subjectivity) with two experiment...
