Autonomous Association Of Geo Rso Observations Using Deep Neural Networks, Ian W. Mcquaid
Autonomous Association Of Geo Rso Observations Using Deep Neural Networks, Ian W. Mcquaid
Theses and Dissertations
Ground-based non-resolved optical observations of resident space objects (RSOs) in geosynchronous orbit (GEO) represent the majority of the space surveillance network’s (SSN’s) deep-space tracking. Reliable and accurate tracking necessitates temporal separation of the observations. This requires that subsequent observations be associated with prior observations of a given RSO before they can be used to create or refine that RSO’s ephemeris. The use of astrometric data (e.g. topocentric angular position) alone for this association task is complicated by RSO maneuvers between observations, and by RSOs operating in close proximity. Accurately associating an observation with an RSO thus motivates the use of …
Machine Translation With Image Context From Mandarin Chinese To English, Brooke E. Johnson
Machine Translation With Image Context From Mandarin Chinese To English, Brooke E. Johnson
Theses and Dissertations
Despite ongoing improvements in machine translation, machine translators still lack the capability of incorporating context from which source text may have been derived. Machine translators use text from a source language to translate it into a target language without observing any visual context. This work aims to produce a neural machine translation model that is capable of accepting both text and image context as a multimodal translator from Mandarin Chinese to English. The model was trained on a small multimodal dataset of 700 images and sentences, and compared to a translator trained only on the text associated with those images. …
