Via audiovisual communications and a controllable physical embodiment, Mobile Robotic telePresence (MRP) systems aim to support enhanced collaboration between remote and local members of a given setting. But MRP systems also put the remote user in po... Read More about "I can't get round": Recruiting Assistance in Mobile Robotic Telepresence.

The Effect of Light Intensity, Sensor Height, and Spectral Pre-Processing Methods When Using NIR Spectroscopy to Identify Different Allergen-Containing Powdered Foods (2019)
Journal Article
Rady, A., Fischer, J., Reeves, S., Logan, B., & James Watson, N. (2020). The Effect of Light Intensity, Sensor Height, and Spectral Pre-Processing Methods When Using NIR Spectroscopy to Identify Different Allergen-Containing Powdered Foods. Sensors, 20(1), Article 230. https://doi.org/10.3390/s20010230

Food allergens present a significant health risk to the human population, so their presence must be monitored and controlled within food production environments. This is especially important for powdered food, which can contain nearly all known food...

“What do you want for dinner?”: need anticipation and the design of proactive technologies for the home (2018)
Journal Article
Hyland, L., Crabtree, A., Fischer, J. E., Colley, J., & Fuentes, C. (in press). “What do you want for dinner?”: need anticipation and the design of proactive technologies for the home. Computer Supported Cooperative Work, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10606-018-9314-4

This paper examines ‘the routine shop’ as part of a project that is exploring automation and autonomy in the Internet of Things. In particular we explicate the ‘work’ involved in anticipating need using an ethnomethodological analysis that makes visi...

Provenance Network Analytics: An approach to data analytics using data provenance (2018)
Journal Article
Huynh, T. D., Ebden, M., Fischer, J., Roberts, S., & Moreau, L. (2018). Provenance Network Analytics: An approach to data analytics using data provenance. Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery, 32(3), 708-735. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10618-017-0549-3

Provenance network analytics is a novel data analytics approach that helps infer properties of data, such as quality or importance, from their provenance. Instead of analysing application data, which are typically domain-dependent, it analyses the da... Read More about Provenance Network Analytics: An approach to data analytics using data provenance.
