Online learning and fusion of orientation appearance models for robust rigid object tracking (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marras, I., Medina, J. A., Tzimiropoulos, G., Zafeiriou, S., & Pantic, M. (2013, April). Online learning and fusion of orientation appearance models for robust rigid object tracking. Presented at 2013 10th IEEE International Conference and Workshops on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition, FG 2013, Shanghai, China

We present a robust framework for learning and fusing different modalities for rigid object tracking. Our method fuses data obtained from a standard visual camera and dense depth maps obtained by low-cost consumer depths cameras such as the Kinect. T...

Artificial Immune Systems (2013)
Book Chapter
Aickelin, U., Dasgupta, D., & Gu, F. (2014). Artificial Immune Systems. In E. Burke, & G. Kendall (Eds.), Search methodologies: introductory tutorials in optimization and decision support techniques. 2nd edition (187-211). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4614-6940-7_7

The biological immune system is a robust, complex, adaptive system that defends the body from foreign pathogens. It is able to categorize all cells (or molecules) within the body as self or nonself substances. It does this with the help of a distribu... Read More about Artificial Immune Systems.

Performance-Led Research in the Wild (2013)
Journal Article
Benford, S., Adams, M., Tandavanitj, N., Row Farr, J., Greenhalgh, C., Crabtree, A., …Giannachi, G. (2013). Performance-Led Research in the Wild. ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction, 20(3), 1-22. https://doi.org/10.1145/2491500.2491502

We explore the approach of performance-led research in the wild in which artists drive the creation of novel performances with the support of HCI researchers that are then deployed and studied at public performance in cultural settings such as galler...

A simulated annealing based genetic local search algorithm for multi-objective multicast routing problems (2013)
Journal Article
Xu, Y., Qu, R., & Li, R. (2013). A simulated annealing based genetic local search algorithm for multi-objective multicast routing problems. Annals of Operations Research, 260(1), https://doi.org/10.1007/s10479-013-1322-7

This paper presents a new hybrid evolutionary algorithm to solve multi-objective multicast routing problems in telecommunication networks. The algorithm combines simulated annealing based strategies and a genetic local search, aiming at a more flexib...

A quantifier-based fuzzy classification system for breast cancer patients (2013)
Journal Article
Soria, D., Garibaldi, J. M., Green, A. R., Powe, D. G., Nolan, C. C., Lemetre, C., …Ellis, I. O. (2013). A quantifier-based fuzzy classification system for breast cancer patients. Artificial Intelligence in Medicine, 58(3), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.artmed.2013.04.006

Objectives:Recent studies of breast cancer data have identified seven distinct clinical phenotypes (groups) using immunohistochemical analysis and a range of different clustering techniques. Consensus between unsupervised classification algorithms ha... Read More about A quantifier-based fuzzy classification system for breast cancer patients.

The term Ubiquitous Monitoring aims to capture the unprecedented degree to which data collection will occur in the future through ongoing developments in embedded, wireless and sensory technologies. Intelligent buildings represent the most current in... Read More about Using adaptive architecture to probe attitudes towards ubiquitous monitoring.

Haptic Role Allocation and Intention Negotiation in Human-Robot Collaboration (2013)
Thesis
Kucukyilmaz, A. (2013). Haptic Role Allocation and Intention Negotiation in Human-Robot Collaboration. (Thesis). Retrieved from https://nottingham-repository.worktribe.com/output/4040519

This dissertation aims to present a perspective to build more natural shared control systems for physical human-robot cooperation. As the tasks become more complex and more dynamic, many shared control schemes fail to meet the expectation of an effor...

A harmony search algorithm for nurse rostering problems (2013)
Journal Article
Hadwan, M., Ayob, M., Kendall, G., & Qu, R. (2013). A harmony search algorithm for nurse rostering problems. Information Sciences, 233, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ins.2012.12.025

Harmony search algorithm (HSA) is a relatively new nature-inspired algorithm. It evolves solutions in the problem search space by mimicking the musical improvisation process in seeking agreeable harmony measured by aesthetic standards. The nurse rost...
