Learning the Quality of Dispatch Heuristics Generated by Automated Programming (2018)
Book Chapter
Parkes, A. J., Beglou, N., & Ozcan, E. (2019). Learning the Quality of Dispatch Heuristics Generated by Automated Programming. In Learning and Intelligent Optimization (154-158). Springer Verlag. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-05348-2_13

One of the challenges within the area of optimisation, and AI in general, is to be able to support the automated creation of the heuristics that are often needed within effective algorithms. Such an example of automated programming may be performed b... Read More about Learning the Quality of Dispatch Heuristics Generated by Automated Programming.

Understanding labour exploitation in the Spanish agricultural sector using an agent based approach (2018)
Journal Article
Chesney, T., Evans, K., Gold, S., & Trautrims, A. (2019). Understanding labour exploitation in the Spanish agricultural sector using an agent based approach. Journal of Cleaner Production, 214, 696-704. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jclepro.2018.12.282

Using an agent-based model we explore the model of slavery in modern business developed by Crane (2013). Taking the Spanish agricultural sector—specifically the area of Campo de Dalías in Almería where much of Europe's vegetables are grown—as a case,...

This paper presents the design and field study of the Connected Shower, a bespoke IoT device that captures water flow, temperature, shower-head movement, and shower product weight. We deployed the device in six UK homes for a week to understand the u... Read More about The Connected Shower: Studying Intimate Data in Everyday Life.

Neurovascular structures in human vastus lateralis muscle and the ideal biopsy site (2018)
Journal Article
Chen, X., Abbey, S., Bharmal, A., Harris, S., Hudson, E., Krinner, L., …Billeter, R. (2019). Neurovascular structures in human vastus lateralis muscle and the ideal biopsy site. Scandinavian Journal of Medicine and Science in Sports, 29(4), 504-514. https://doi.org/10.1111/sms.13369

A density model of neurovascular structures was generated from 28 human vastus lateralis muscles isolated from embalmed cadavers. The intramuscular portion of arteries, veins and nerves was dissected, traced on transparencies and digitised before adj...

Position Paper: The Usefulness of Data-driven, Intelligent Agent-Based Modelling for Transport Infrastructure Management (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Faboya, O., Figueredo, G. P., Ryan, B., & Siebers, P. (2018). Position Paper: The Usefulness of Data-driven, Intelligent Agent-Based Modelling for Transport Infrastructure Management. In The 21st IEEE International Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems (144-149). https://doi.org/10.1109/ITSC.2018.8569946

The uneven utilisation of modes of transport has a big impact on traffic in transport pathway infrastrutures. For motor vehicles for instance, this situation explains rapid road deterioration and the large amounts of money invested in maintenance and...
