program verification strategy and edge ranking of graphs
PublicationW artykule rozważamy model, w którym zakładamy, że dany jest zbiór asercji/testów dla pewnych bloków programu. Celem jest znalezienie optymalnej, tzn. wymagającej wykonania minimalnej liczby testów strategii wyszukiwania błędu w kodzie programu. Pomimo założenia w modelu, iż program posiada dokładnie jeden błąd, rozważania można uogólnić na testowanie kodu z dowolną liczbą błędów. Analizujemy teoretyczne własności tego modelu oraz...

Distributed tracking system with central trajectories initialization
PublicationW pracy rozważa się problem wyznaczania trajektorii przy użyciu rozproszonego, wieloczujnikowego systemu. W systemie tego typu trajektoria poruszającego się obiektu wyznaczana jest przez grupę lokalnych estymatorów stanu. Każdy z estymatorów korzysta z filtru Kalmana i danych z pojedynczego źródła w celu określenia trajektorii obiektu. Zwykle źródła danych (czujniki) pracujące na potrzeby estymatorów lokalnych nie obserwują takiego...

Pose-Configurable Generic Tracking of Elongated Objects
PublicationElongated objects have various shapes and can shift, rotate, change scale, and be rigid or deform by flexing, articulating, and vibrating, with examples as varied as a glass bottle, a robotic arm, a surgical suture, a finger pair, a tram, and a guitar string. This generally makes tracking of poses of elongated objects very challenging. We describe a unified, configurable framework for tracking the pose of elongated objects, which...

INFLUENCE OF TIME ON THE BEARING CAPACITY OF PRECAST PILES
PublicationOne of the most popular types of foundations in layered subsoil with very differentiated soil shear strengths are precast piles. One of the reasons is a fact that we can well control the driving process during the installation of these piles. The principles of the assessment of bearing capacity and settlements of the piles given by Eurocode 7, concentrate on two main methods, i.e. Static Pile Load Tests (SPLT) and Dynamic Driving...

Marking the Allophones Boundaries Based on the DTW Algorithm
PublicationThe paper presents an approach to marking the boundaries of allophones in the speech signal based on the Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) algorithm. Setting and marking of allophones boundaries in continuous speech is a difficult issue due to the mutual influence of adjacent phonemes on each other. It is this neighborhood on the one hand that creates variants of phonemes that is allophones, and on the other hand it affects that the border...

HYDROSTATIC THRUST BEARING WITH REDUCED POWER LOSSES
PublicationIn many cases in rotating machinery, axial load is carried by tilting pad thrust bearings which have been developed since the beginning of 20th century. For high reliability and simplicity, most commonly the bearings are bath lubricated. In the times of sustainable development, however, minimization of friction losses becomes an important criterion for machinery assessment, and a strategic goal of their development. Performed calculations,...

On Bayesian Tracking and Prediction of Radar Cross Section
PublicationWe consider the problem of Bayesian tracking of radar cross section. The adopted observation model employs the gamma family, which covers all Swerling cases in a unified framework. State dynamics are modeled using a nonstationary autoregressive gamma process. The principal component of the proposed solution is a nontrivial gamma approximation, applied during the time update recursion. The superior performance of the proposed approach...

Making agile retrospectives more awesome
PublicationAccording to the textbook [23], Scrum exists only in its entirety, where every component is essential to Scrum’s success. However, in many organizational environments some of the components are omitted or modified in a way that is not aligned with the Scrum guidelines. Usually, such deviations result in missing the full benefits of Scrum [24]. Thereby, a Scrum process should be frequently inspected and any deviations should be...

Rating Prediction with Contextual Conditional Preferences
PublicationExploiting contextual information is considered a good solution to improve the quality of recommendations, aiming at suggesting more relevant items for a specific context. On the other hand, recommender systems research still strive for solving the cold-start problem, namely where not enough information about users and their ratings is available. In this paper we propose a new rating prediction algorithm to face the cold-start...

Quantitative Storytelling in the Making of a Composite Indicator
PublicationThe reasons for and against composite indicators are briefly reviewed, as well as the available theories for their construction. After noting the strong normative dimension of these measures—which ultimately aim to ‘tell a story’, e.g. to promote the social discovery of a particular phenomenon, we inquire whether a less partisan use of a composite indicator can be proposed by allowing more latitude in the framing of its construction....

Nonadditivity of quantum and classical capacities for entanglement breaking multiple-access channels and the butterfly network
PublicationWe analyze quantum network primitives which are entanglement breaking. We show superadditivity of quantum and classical capacity regions for quantum multiple-access channels and the quantum butterfly network. Since the effects are especially visible at high noise they suggest that quantum information effects may be particularly helpful in the case of the networks with occasional high noise rates. The present effects provide a qualitative...
