WMT 2016 Multimodal translation system description based on bidirectional recurrent neural networks with double-embeddings

Bidirectional Recurrent Neural Networks (BiRNNs) have shown outstanding results on sequence-to-sequence learning tasks. This architecture becomes specially interesting for multimodal machine translation task, since BiRNNs can deal with images and text. On most translation systems the same word embedding is fed to both BiRNN units. In this paper, we present several experiments to enhance a baseline sequence-to-sequence system (Elliott et al., 2015), for example, by using double embeddings. These embeddings are trained on the forward and backward direction of the input sequence. Our system is trained, validated and tested on the Multi30K dataset (Elliott et al., 2016) in the context of theWMT 2016Multimodal Translation Task. The obtained results show that thedouble-embedding approach performs significantly better than the traditional single-embedding one.Postprint (published version

A Software Radio Challenge Accelerating Education and Innovation in Wireless Communications

This Innovative Practice Full Paper presents our methodology and tools for introducing competition in the electrical engineering curriculum to accelerate education and innovation in wireless communications. Software radio or software-defined radio (SDR) enables wireless technology, systems and standards education where the student acts as the radio developer or engineer. This is still a huge endeavor because of the complexity of current wireless systems and the diverse student backgrounds. We suggest creating a competition among student teams to potentiate creativity while leveraging the SDR development methodology and open-source tools to facilitate cooperation. The proposed student challenge follows the European UEFA Champions League format, which includes a qualification phase followed by the elimination round or playoffs. The students are tasked to build an SDR transmitter and receiver following the guidelines of the long-term evolution standard. The metric is system performance. After completing this course, the students will be able to (1) analyze alternative radio design options and argue about their benefits and drawbacks and (2) contribute to the evolution of wireless standards. We discuss our experiences and lessons learned with particular focus on the suitability of the proposed teaching and evaluation methodology and conclude that competition in the electrical engineering classroom can spur innovation.Comment: Frontiers in Education 2018 (FIE 2018

Collective and Single-particle Motion in Beyond Mean Field Approaches

We present a novel nuclear energy density functional method to calculate spectroscopic properties of atomic nuclei. Intrinsic nuclear quadrupole deformations and rotational frequencies are considered simultaneously as the degrees of freedom within a symmetry conserving configuration mixing framework. The present method allows the study of nuclear states with collective and single-particle character. We calculate the fascinating structure of the semi-magic 44S nucleus as a first application of the method, obtaining an excellent quantitative agreement both with the available experimental data and with state-of-the-art shell model calculations.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, accepted for publication in Phys.

Errors in algebraic statements translation during the creation of an algebraic domino

We present a research study which main objective is to inquire into secondary school students´ ability to translate and relate algebraic statements which are presented in the symbolic and verbal representation systems. Data collection was performed with 26 14-15 years old students to whom we proposed the creation of an algebraic domino, designed for this research, and its subsequent use in a tournament. Here we present an analysis of the errors made in such translations. Among the obtained results, we note that the students found easier to translate statements from the symbolic to the verbal representation and that most errors in translating from verbal to symbolic expressions where derived from the particular characteristics of algebraic language. Other types of errors are also identified. KEYWORDS: Algebraic language, domino, errors, translation between representation systems, verbal representation

Famílies, cura i dependència. La responsabilitat dels cuidadors familiars

Treballs Finals de Grau Antropologia Social i Cultural, Facultat de Geografia i Història, Universitat de Barcelona, Curs: 2013-2014, Tutor: Sílvia Bofill PochL’aprovació de la Llei 39/2006, Llei de Promoció de l’Autonomia Personal i Atenció a les Persones amb Dependència, estructura una resposta inicial a la demanda feta per les persones amb dependència i els seus cuidadors i cuidadores familiars. Transcorreguts ja uns anys treballant amb aquesta Llei i amb els familiars cuidadors cal valorar quins són alguns dels seus efectes i com l’han rebut els familiars. L’article que presento és un resum de l’impacte que ha tingut la Llei de dependència i com aquesta en comptes de prestar ajuda i rebaixar les carregues de treball dins l’àmbit familiar, respecte a la cura de persones amb dependència, manté la responsabilitat sobre fills, dones o marits de mantenir la cura i naturalitza aquesta obligació moral de la cura, basada en la responsabilitat familiar

“Cuando la actitud deviene en forma…”

En todo proceso arquitectónico, el conocimiento y habilidades de todos los agentes se comparten, se acumulan y se transmiten desde proyecto a la obra. En ella, la simplicidad técnica, la inmediatez de los detalles durante su construcción, el aprecio por la industrialización sencilla, así como el uso pragmático y experimental—desde la experiencia—de los materiales, son algunas cuestiones donde se pone de manifiesto esta implicación. Desde el trabajo de investigación y documentación que llamamos trazabilidad proyectiva se propone trazar un mapa o cartografía de estos procesosUniversidad de Málaga.

Incidencia de la hipoacusia en la población infantil del área hospitalaria de Valladolid Oeste

Las hipoacusias prelinguales generan importantes alteraciones en el desarrollo del niño, en su capacidad de comunicación y aprendizaje y a largo plazo en su integración social. Por lo tanto, una intervención precoz que restablezca el déficit sensorial es fundamental para permitir el correcto desarrollo del menor. Para poder llevar a cabo esa intervención precoz, es fundamental realizar un diagnóstico preciso para lo cual se emplean las pruebas de cribado. El programa de detección precoz y atención integral de la Hipoacusia Infantil en Castilla y León llevado acabo en el área de Valladolid Oeste establece las actividades necesarias para poder realizar una intervención integral temprana en el menor. Garantizando el acceso a un diagnóstico y tratamiento rápido , eficaz y adecuado. Con este TFG se pretende evaluar el correcto desarrollo del programa y la incidencia de la hipoacusia en nuestro área de estudio. Con los resultados obtenidos queda probada la validez de la prueba así como la correcta cobertura que se está realizando siendo prácticamente anecdótico el rechazo de la prueba por parte de los progenitoresGrado en Medicin
