This paper presents a methodology for the sizing and preliminary analysis of Multi-Prop UAVs. The is founded on design trends that emerge from vast unique database has been collected such vehicles. includes geometry parameters, components’ weight, power required, flight performance estimation. For given mission, enables optimization specific configuration either minimal weight or dimensions. As...

This paper describes the DCU machine translation system in the evaluation campaign of the Joint Fifth Workshop on Statistical Machine Translation and Metrics in ACL-2010. We describe the modular design of our multi-engine machine translation (MT) system with particular focus on the components used in this participation. We participated in the English– Spanish and English–Czech translation tasks...

Many recognition procedures rely on the consistency of a subset of data features with a hypothesis as the sufficient evidence to the presence of the corresponding object. We analyze here the performance of such procedures, using a probabilistic model, and provide expressions for the sufficient size of such data subsets, that, if consistent, guarantee the validity of the hypotheses with arbitrar...

In this paper, we describe the machine translation system in the evaluation campaign of the Fourth Workshop on Statistical Machine Translation at EACL 2009. We describe the modular design of our multi-engine MT system with particular focus on the components used in this participation. We participated in the translation task for the following translation directions: French–English and English–Fr...
