The importance of considering pushback time and arrivals when routing departures on the ground at airports (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Stergianos, C., Atkin, J., Schittekat, P., Nordlander, T. E., Gerada, C., & Morvan, H. The importance of considering pushback time and arrivals when routing departures on the ground at airports. Presented at 8th International Conference on Applied Operational Research (ICAOR 2016)

With the constant increase in air traffic, airports are facing capacity problems. Many airports are increasingly interested in utilising optimisation methods for specific airport processes. However, many such processes do happen in parallel, and maxi... Read More about The importance of considering pushback time and arrivals when routing departures on the ground at airports.

Hybridising local search with Branch-and-Bound for constrained portfolio selection problems (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
He, F., & Qu, R. Hybridising local search with Branch-and-Bound for constrained portfolio selection problems. Presented at 30th EUROPEAN Conference on Modelling and Simulation

In this paper, we investigate a constrained portfolio selection problem with cardinality constraint, minimum size and position constraints, and non-convex transaction cost. A hybrid method named Local Search Branch-and-Bound (LS-B&B) which integrates... Read More about Hybridising local search with Branch-and-Bound for constrained portfolio selection problems.

On Lions, Impala, and Bigraphs: Modelling Interactions in Physical/Virtual Spaces (2016)
Journal Article
Benford, S., Calder, M., Rodden, T., & Sevegnani, M. (2016). On Lions, Impala, and Bigraphs: Modelling Interactions in Physical/Virtual Spaces. ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction, 23(2), Article 9. https://doi.org/10.1145/2882784

© 2016 ACM. While HCI has a long tradition of formally modelling task-based interactions with graphical user interfaces, there has been less progress in modelling emerging ubiquitous computing systems due in large part to their highly contextual natu...

Cognitive privacy for personal clouds (2016)
Journal Article
Radenkovic, M. (2016). Cognitive privacy for personal clouds. Mobile Information Systems, 2016, 1-17. https://doi.org/10.1155/2016/7107103

This paper proposes a novel Cognitive Privacy (CogPriv) framework that improves privacy of data sharing between Personal Clouds for different application types and across heterogeneous networks. Depending on the behaviour of neighbouring network node... Read More about Cognitive privacy for personal clouds.

A robust similarity measure for volumetric image registration with outliers (2016)
Journal Article
Snape, P., Pszczolkowski, S., Zafeiriou, S., Tzimiropoulos, G., Ledig, C., & Rueckert, D. (2016). A robust similarity measure for volumetric image registration with outliers. Image and Vision Computing, 52, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.imavis.2016.05.006

Image registration under challenging realistic conditions is a very important area of research. In this paper, we focus on algorithms that seek to densely align two volumetric images according to a global similarity measure. Despite intensive researc...

Optimising rule-based classification in temporal data (2016)
Journal Article
Fattah, P., Aickelin, U., & Wagner, C. (2016). Optimising rule-based classification in temporal data. Zanco Journal of Pure and Applied Sciences, 28(2),

This study optimises manually derived rule-based expert system classification of objects according to changes in their properties over time. One of the key challenges that this study tries to address is how to classify objects that exhibit changes in... Read More about Optimising rule-based classification in temporal data.

Tracking tracer motion in a 4-D electrical resistivity tomography experiment (2016)
Journal Article
Ward, W. O., Wilkinson, P. B., Chambers, J. E., Nilsson, H., Kuras, O., & Bai, L. (2016). Tracking tracer motion in a 4-D electrical resistivity tomography experiment. Water Resources Research, 52(5), 4078-4094. https://doi.org/10.1002/2015WR017958

A new framework for automatically tracking subsurface tracers in electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) monitoring images is presented. Using computer vision and Bayesian inference techniques, in the form of a Kalman filter, the trajectory of a subs...

From privacy impact assessment to Social Impact Assessment (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Edwards, L., McAuley, D., & Diver, L. From privacy impact assessment to Social Impact Assessment. Presented at 2016 IEEE Security and Privacy Workshops (SPW)

In order to address the continued decline in consumer trust in all things digital, and specifically the Internet of Things (IoT), we propose a radical overhaul of IoT design processes. Privacy by Design has been proposed as a suitable framework, but... Read More about From privacy impact assessment to Social Impact Assessment.

Maintaining regularity and generalizationin data using the minimum description length principle and genetic algorithm: case of grammatical inference (2016)
Journal Article
Pandey, H. M., Chaudhary, A., Mehrotra, D., & Kendall, G. (in press). Maintaining regularity and generalizationin data using the minimum description length principle and genetic algorithm: case of grammatical inference. Swarm and Evolutionary Computation, 31, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.swevo.2016.05.002

In this paper, a genetic algorithm with minimum description length (GAWMDL) is proposed for grammatical inference. The primary challenge of identifying a language of infinite cardinality from a finite set of examples should know when to generalize an...

“Just whack it on until it gets hot”: working with IoT data in the home (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fischer, J. E., Crabtree, A., Rodden, T., Colley, J. A., Costanza, E., Jewell, M. O., & Ramchurn, S. D. “Just whack it on until it gets hot”: working with IoT data in the home. Presented at CHI 2016: SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems

This paper presents findings from a co-design project that aims to augment the practices of professional energy advisors with environmental data from sensors deployed in clients’ homes. Premised on prior ethnographic observations we prototyped a sens... Read More about “Just whack it on until it gets hot”: working with IoT data in the home.
