This paper deals with the quality evaluation (validation) of Spoken Language Resources (SLR). The current situation in terms of relevant validation criteria and procedures is briefly presented. Next, a number of validation issues related to new data formats (XMLbased annotations, UTF-16 encoding) are discussed. Further, new validation cycles that were introduced in a series of new projects like...

The main aim of this paper is to analyze the influence of the modulation techniques; on the performance of coded orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (COFDM) based Radio over Fiber (RoF) system. The modelling of the COFDM scheme for RoF system has been completely done by using software Optisystem. Both analysis and simulation results are presented for 16-QAM and 16-QPSK modulation techniq...

Fast data links require a low phase noise reference clock. An alternative is to reduce the noise of a low cost clock part using the band pass filtering inherent to the clocking architecture in the link. This study has a two-fold objective: to verify clock noise filtering in a 16 Gbps data link, and to prove the degree of filtering is adjustable. Two measured band pass filters are presented. Clo...

Nowadays, online social networks are considered as one of the most important emerging phenomena of human societies. In these networks, prediction of link by relying on the knowledge existing of the interaction between network actors provides an estimation of the probability of creation of a new relationship in future. A wide range of applications can be found for link prediction such as electro...

Maternal and paternal psychological control, peer attitudes, and the interaction of psychological control and peer attitudes at age 13 were examined as predictors of risky sexual behavior before age 16 in a community sample of 181 youth followed from age 13 to 16. Maternal psychological control moderated the link between peer attitudes and sexual behavior. Peer acceptance of early sex predicted...

Nowadays, because of the need to decrease fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions and also their capability of exchanging power with the grid and regulating the frequency and voltage of the grid at different times of the day, electric vehicles are used more than before all across the world. It is highly important to pay attention to the efficiency, and decrease in the weight and volume of...
