Automated program repair (in short, APR) is a truly desired technique because it can reduce debugging costs drastically. A well-known technique in APR is a reuse-based approach, which inserts existing program statements in a given program to suspicious code for an exposed bug. Some reports show the reuse-based approach was able to fix many bugs in open source software. However, the existing approach...
The RoboCupRescue Simulation project is a way to evaluate approaches to disaster relief that use the latest techniques of artificial intelligence, information science, and related topics. The project holds annual international and regional competitions as a part of RoboCup, which is the world cup of autonomous robots. In the competition, participants compete for championship using their own ideas...
In this paper, we propose a moral judgment system using an automatic created moral corpus. The moral corpus enables that the correct judgment to the case that the existing methods cannot judge correctly. Here, the moral corpus means the set of sentences that are labeled "positive" or "negative" from the point of view of morality. In the proposed system, the moral corpus is created...
In the RoboCup Mixed Reality Soccer League, the location and direction of each micro robot on the field are detected by a camera positioned above the field. However, setting and adjusting the camera to achieve greater accuracy takes a very long time. Besides, the detection process is influenced by the surrounding environment, including illuminance of the room and location of the field. Therefore,...
In this paper, we propose a moral judgment system. Moral judgment means right and wrong judgment. The proposed system consists of the learning phase and the moral judgment phase. In the learning phase, the positive words and the negative words (evaluation expressions) are extracted based on the cooccurrence frequency of the learning data and the words in the polarity dictionary. Then, the words having...
MOSAIC SRAM Cell TEGs consisting of memory cells having all combinations of gate sizes of transistors differing by two orders of magnitude were developed with 0.18um CMOS process to verify the operation margins for SRAM circuits. The measured results show the operation of the ratio-less SRAM is completely independent of the size of transistors in the memory cell.
We investigate the inversion charge for sub-20nm MOSFETs. The inversion charge Qi calculated by using the standard analytical model is compared with that using S/P model, which solves the Schrödinger and Poisson equations self-consistently. Test devices are low operating power bulk nMOSFETs having physical gate lengths Lg from 22 to 18nm. It is found that |Qi| using the analytical model is 24%–40%...
Atomistic transport simulation based on non-equilibrium Green's function and empirical tight-binding methods has been performed for two-dimensional silicon n-i-p devices with a thin strained layer near the source-channel interface. Simulation results show that a compressive strained layer in the source region and a tensile strained layer in the channel region enhance the Zener tunneling current.
In this work, we investigate the quantum effects of the inversion layer for sub-20nm MOSFETs. In ITRS reports, inversion-layer EOTs are calculated by using an analytical program: MASTAR. In the program, the electrostatic potentials in the inversion-layer are estimated by using a triangular quantum well approximation. We evaluate an accuracy of the approximation and estimate the inversion-layer EOTs...
Hole transport simulation based on the nonequilibrium Green's function and tight-binding formalism has been performed for strained Si nanowire FETs with a diameter of 1.5nm and 2.5 nm. Simulation results show that for Si nanowire FETs with a diameter of 2.5 nm, the compressive strain enhances the ballistic hole current, while the tensile strain gives opposite results. For Si nanowire FETs with a diameter...
