New Directions for the IoT: Automate, Share, Build, and Care (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fuentes, C., Porcheron, M., Fischer, J. E., Costanza, E., Verdezoto, N., Herskovic, V., Zuckerman, O., & Takayama, L. (2019, May). New Directions for the IoT: Automate, Share, Build, and Care. Presented at 2019 ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (SIG CHI 2019), Glasgow, Scotland, UK

As the IoT is taking hold in the home, in healthcare, factories, and industry, new challenges and approaches arise for HCI research and design. For example, HCI is exploring agency delegation and automation to support the user in managing the deluge... Read More about New Directions for the IoT: Automate, Share, Build, and Care.

Young adults' attitudes to sharing whole-genome sequencing information: a university-based survey (2019)
Journal Article
Stringer, P., Sharples, S., Thomson, B. J., & Garibaldi, J. M. (2019). Young adults' attitudes to sharing whole-genome sequencing information: a university-based survey. BMC Medical Genomics, 12, Article 55. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12920-019-0499-2

Background
Genomic services are increasingly accessible to young adults starting their independent lives with responsibility for their self-care, yet their attitudes to sharing genomic information remain under-researched. This study explored attitud... Read More about Young adults' attitudes to sharing whole-genome sequencing information: a university-based survey.

Measuring similarity between discontinuous intervals : challenges and solutions (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kabir, S., Wagner, C., Havens, T. C., & Anderson, D. T. (2019, June). Measuring similarity between discontinuous intervals : challenges and solutions. Presented at 2019 IEEE Conference on Fuzzy Systems, New Orleans, Louisiana, USA

Discontinuous intervals (DIs) arise in a wide range of contexts, from real world data capture of human opinion to α-cuts of non-convex fuzzy sets. Commonly, for assessing the similarity of DIs, the latter are converted into their continuous form, fol...

© 2019 Elsevier Inc. The wide deployment of cloud-assisted electronic health (eHealth) systems has already shown great benefits in managing electronic health records (EHRs) for both medical institutions and patients. However, it also causes critical... Read More about Cloud-assisted secure eHealth systems for tamper-proofing EHR via blockchain.

Three-dimensional Segmentation of Blood Vessels from Intensity In-homogeneous Medical Images (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bukenya, F., Awwad, A., Duan, J., Ehling, J., Faas, H., & Bai, L. (2018, November). Three-dimensional Segmentation of Blood Vessels from Intensity In-homogeneous Medical Images. Presented at 2018 IEEE Symposium Series on Computational Intelligence (SSCI), Bangalore, India

Blood vessel segmentation helps to know the progress of the disease during diagnosis. The presence of intensity in-homogeneity, conglutination tissue and noise in medical images has led to difficulty in extraction of different sizes of blood vessels,...

Transforming big data into smart data: An insight on the use of the k-nearest neighbors algorithm to obtain quality data (2018)
Journal Article
Triguero, I., Garcia-Gil, D., Maillo, J., Luengo, J., Garcia, S., & Herrera, F. (2019). Transforming big data into smart data: An insight on the use of the k-nearest neighbors algorithm to obtain quality data. Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery, 9(2), Article e1289. https://doi.org/10.1002/widm.1289

The k-nearest neighbours algorithm is characterised as a simple yet effective data mining technique. The main drawback of this technique appears when massive amounts of data -likely to contain noise and imperfections - are involved, turning this algo...
