In this paper the IDT (Interactive Diagnosis and Testing) system is presented which extends Shapiro's Interactive Diagnosis Algorithms with Category Partition Testing method. Shapiro's original system demands a lot of user interaction during the debugging; the user has to answer a large number of queries. The results of the debugging are the buggy clause and one of the following three types of ...

This paper presents the method of our submission for THUMOS15 action recognition challenge. We propose a new action recognition system by exploiting very deep twostream ConvNets and Fisher vector representation of iDT features. Specifically, we utilize those successful very deep architectures in images such as GoogLeNet and VGGNet to design the two-stream ConvNets. From our experiments, we see ...

In this paper, we discuss a simplified finite element method (FEM) simulation of surface acoustic wave (SAW) delay line hydrogen sensor using COMSOL Multiphysics. A delay line SAW sensor consists of a transmitting interdigital transducer (IDT) and a receiving IDT separated by a few wavelengths. In this paper, the number of degrees of freedom (DOF) to solve for the SAW delay line sensor model is...

A first step in defining IDT would be to identify its central concern. Although some see science, design, or technology as central, IDT’s actual center has always been to help learners. Because the aspiration to help people is by definition ethical, it follows that the central concern of IDT is ethical. Thus, science, design, and technology become means to an ethical end. They serve praxis, or ...

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationships between the constructs of Real Option Theory (ROT) and Innovation Diffusion Theory (IDT) along with their impacts on new IT projects adoption. Unlike the more traditional techniques, real options theory explicitly accounts for uncertainty and future flexibility. Those variables are missed in all traditional innovation adoption theori...

Today’s research and operational forecast models and data assimilation systems have difficulty ingesting and utilizing large volumes of satellite data, in part due to prohibitively large computational costs, time constraints and bandwidth issues. To address this problem, NASA recently funded a project aimed at refining, testing and customizing an existing automated Intelligent Data Thinning (ID...

We present the analysis and measurement of spurious responses generated at the ends of interdigital transducers (IDT). Filters fabricated on LiNb03 show an unwanted pass band ripple whose period indicates additional generation of acoustic waves at the IDT end. As this effect cannot be explained by methods of analysis based on the infinite array approximation, an exact analysis of the complex-va...

IDT is an intelligent hardware diagnostic tool that has been successfully used to identify faults in PDP 11103 computers. It selects and executes tests, and interprets the results. IDT is able to modify its test selection strategy on the basis of results of previous tests as well as opinions offered to it by the user. Symbolic formulas are used to represent the relationship between the test res...

Focused surface-acoustic waves ~SAWs! provide a way to reach intense acoustic fields for electroand optoacoustic applications on semiconductors. We have investigated the focusing of SAWs by interdigital transducers ~IDTs! deposited on ~100!-oriented GaAs substrates. The focusing IDTs have curved fingers designed to account for the acoustic anisotropy of the substrate. Different factors that aff...
