Augmenting Customer Support with an NLP-based Receptionist [PDF]

Anais do XIII Simp\'osio Brasileiro de Tecnologia da Informa\c{c}\~ao e da Linguagem Humana (2021) 133-142, 2021
In this paper, we show how a Portuguese BERT model can be combined with structured data in order to deploy a chatbot based on a finite state machine to create a conversational AI system that helps a real-estate company to predict its client's contact motivation.

Dark matter in Actor-Network Theory context (La materia oscura en el contexto de la teoría del actor-red) [PDF]

REDES - Revista de Estudios Sociales de la Ciencia y la Tecnolog\'ia (ISSN 0328-3186 / eISSN 1851-7072). 2016, 22(42), 153-165, 2021
The aim of this work is to use some categories of Actor-Network Theory (ANT) developed by Bruno Latour in the book Reassembling the Social -- An Introduction to Actor-Network Theory to analyze a current controversy that occurs in the area of cosmology: the dark matter existence and its characteristics.

CMS Muon Drift Tubes HL-LHC Slice Test [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
The electronics of the CMS Drift Tube (DT) chambers need to be replaced during Long Shutdown 3 to tolerate the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) data taking conditions. The first DT prototypes of the HL-LHC electronics, the on-detector board (OBDT), have been installed in the DT chambers of one sector, out of 60 sectors, and integrated into the central data

SNITCH: Dynamic Dependent Information Flow Analysis for Independent Java Bytecode [PDF]

EPTCS 302, 2019, pp. 16-31, 2019
Software testing is the most commonly used technique in the industry to certify the correctness of software systems. This includes security properties like access control and data confidentiality. However, information flow control and the detection of information leaks using tests is a demanding task without the use of specialized monitoring and ...

Performance Evaluation of a Substrate Integrated Waveguide Antenna for Vehicular Networks [PDF]

Tecnologia e Innovacion en la Ingenieria. 1st Edition (2018) 438-467. Bogota, Colombia. Editorial Bonaventuriana. ISBN 978-958-8928-72-2, 2019
This paper describes the design and evaluation of a Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) antenna operating at 2.4 GHz. This antenna was designed as a possible solution for the implementation of the vehicular networks (VANETs). The main advantages of the SIW antennas, such as their simplicity, small size and low cost, make this kind of antennas ...

Analise dinamica da tendencia para o equilibrio num modelo simples: a Segunda Lei de Newton e a Segunda Lei da Termodinamica [PDF]

Ciencia e Tecnologia dos Materiais, Vol. 14, 2/3 (2002), 2002
We relate Newton's Second Law with the Second Law of Thermodynamics through the analysis of a simple model introducing a dynamic pressure concept. From this analyses we can clarify some conceptual problems resulting from several concepts of heat and work on the First Law of Thermodynamics.

Exo-muscle: A semi-rigid assistive device for the knee [PDF]

In this work, we introduce the principle, design and mechatronics of Exo-Muscle, a novel assistive device for the knee joint. Different from the existing systems based on rigid exoskeleton structures or soft-tendon driven approaches, the proposed device leverages a new semi-rigid principle that explores the benefits of both rigid and soft systems.

Some geometrical aspects of the Microcanonical Distribution [PDF]

arXiv, 2001
In the present work is presented some considerations for a possible generalization of the Microcanonical thermoestatics (M.Th) of D.H.E. Gross.The same reveals a geometric aspect that commonly it has been disregarded so far: the local reparametrization invariance .

Geometrical aspects in Equilibrium Thermodynamics [PDF]

arXiv, 2001
We discuss different aspects of the present status of the Statistical Physics focusing the attention on the non-extensive systems, and in particular, on the so called small systems. Multimicrocanonical Distribution and some of its geometric aspects are presented. The same could be a very atractive way to generalize the Thermodynamics.

A Shared Autonomy Reconfigurable Control Framework for Telemanipulation of Multi-arm Systems [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Teleoperation is a widely adopted strategy to control robotic manipulators executing complex tasks that require highly dexterous movements and critical high-level intelligence. Classical teleoperation schemes are based on either joystick control, or on more intuitive interfaces which map directly the user arm motions into one robot arm's motions. These
