IULA at UPF has developed an aligner that benefits from corpus processing results to produce an accurate and robust alignment, even with noisy parallel corpora. It compares lemmata and part-of-speech tags of analysed texts but it has two main characteristics. First, apparently it only works for near languages and second it requires morphological taggers for the compared languages. These two cha...

Power is an important concern in embedded systems. Reduction of power consumption is achieved by balancing the control of multiple domains: switching power, reducing or increasing voltage and changing the frequency on system sections. Model-Driven Engineering gives tools to model the interactions of these domains. In this work, we propose to use MARTE combined to UPF concepts to capture the str...

This paper aims to investigate several new nonlinear/non-Gaussian filters in the context of the sequential data assimilation. The unscentedKalman filter (UKF), the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF), the sampling importance resampling particle filter (SIR-PF) and the unscented particle filter (UPF) are described in the state-space model framework in the Bayesian filtering background. We first evalua...

Background & aimThe association between ultra-processed foods (UPF) consumption and the risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D) has not been much explored. We aimed to evaluate UPF incidence T2D.MethodsWe assessed 20,060 participants (61.5% women) from SUN project (Seguimiento Universidad de Navarra) followed-up every two years (median follow-up 12 years). Food drink were evaluated through a validated 13...

Abstract Background Although evidence suggests that ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption may trigger addictive behaviors, the association between UPF intake and psychoactive substances remains unclear among adolescents, a group especially vulnerable to addiction its potentially harmful effects on health. Objective To analyze of alcohol, tobacco, illicit drugs in adolescent students. Method Th...
