Convolutional aggregation of local evidence for large pose face alignment (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bulat, A., & Tzimiropoulos, G. (2016). Convolutional aggregation of local evidence for large pose face alignment.

Methods for unconstrained face alignment must satisfy two requirements: they must not rely on accurate initialisation/face detection and they should perform equally well for the whole spectrum of facial poses. To the best of our knowledge, there are... Read More about Convolutional aggregation of local evidence for large pose face alignment.

Enhancing the searchability of page-image PDF documents using an aligned hidden layer from a truth text (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Knight, I. A., & Brailsford, D. F. (2016). Enhancing the searchability of page-image PDF documents using an aligned hidden layer from a truth text.

The search accuracy achieved in a PDF image-plus-hidden- text (PDF-IT) document depends upon the accuracy of the optical character recognition (OCR) process that produced the searchable hidden text layer. In many cases recognising words in a blurred... Read More about Enhancing the searchability of page-image PDF documents using an aligned hidden layer from a truth text.

Combining Monte-Carlo and hyper-heuristic methods for the multi-mode resource-constrained multi-project scheduling problem (2016)
Journal Article
Asta, S., Karapetyan, D., Kheiri, A., Özcan, E., & Parkes, A. J. (2016). Combining Monte-Carlo and hyper-heuristic methods for the multi-mode resource-constrained multi-project scheduling problem. Information Sciences, 373, 476-498. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ins.2016.09.010

Multi-mode resource and precedence-constrained project scheduling is a well-known challenging real-world optimisation problem. An important variant of the problem requires scheduling of activities for multiple projects considering availability of loc...

Using web applications for data visualisation (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Glover, T. (2016). Using web applications for data visualisation.

In this paper, we describe the evolution of web-based applications in the context of data visualization, with respect to the capabilities of modern day browsers in terms of performance and graphical complexity.

Audio in place: media, mobility & HCI: creating meaning in space (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chamberlain, A., Bødker, M., Hazzard, A., & Benford, S. (2016). Audio in place: media, mobility & HCI: creating meaning in space. . https://doi.org/10.1145/2957265.2964195

Audio-based content, location and mobile technologies can offer a multitude of interactional possibilities when combined in innovative and creative ways. It is important not to underestimate impact of the interplay between location, place and sound.... Read More about Audio in place: media, mobility & HCI: creating meaning in space.

New directions for preserving intangible cultural heritage through the use of mobile technologies (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Papangelis, K., Chamberlain, A., & Hai-Ning, L. (2016). New directions for preserving intangible cultural heritage through the use of mobile technologies.

While many cultural heritage projects currently exist, few explore the full potential of mobile technologies as a mechanism to explore intangible heritage as a way to preserve culture. This paper outlines three distinct areas necessary for the design... Read More about New directions for preserving intangible cultural heritage through the use of mobile technologies.

How to design Internet of Things to encourage office workers to take more regular micro-breaks (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Huang, Y. (2016). How to design Internet of Things to encourage office workers to take more regular micro-breaks.

Prolonged sitting at work has become a new health hazard for office workers. The current PhD is thus dedicated to exploring the potential of Internet of Things (IoT) for supporting healthier office work and break routines. An "enchanted object" appro...

An ethnographic exploration of studio production practice (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McGrath, S., Hazzard, A., Chamberlain, A., & Benford, S. (2016). An ethnographic exploration of studio production practice.

Tools for music production range from full scale digital production workstations to context-driven plugins. There are a number of inherent challenges to address in supporting users at different stages of work and at different levels of technical skil...
