Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-72559-3_11

Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs) share many of the same cyber security needs and challenges as larger organisations, but often have significantly less knowledge and capability to deal with them. One of the fundamental issues can be where to... Read More about Assessing Cyber Security Support for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises.

Regional changes in cerebral perfusion with age when accounting for changes in gray-matter volume (2024)
Journal Article
Hu, J., Craig, M. S., Knight, S. P., De Looze, C., Meaney, J. F., Kenney, R. A., Chen, X., & Chappell, M. A. (2024). Regional changes in cerebral perfusion with age when accounting for changes in gray-matter volume. Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, https://doi.org/10.1002/mrm.30376

Purpose
One possible contributing factor for cerebral blood flow (CBF) decline in normal aging is the increase in partial volume effects due to brain atrophy, as cortical thinning can exacerbate the contamination of gray-matter (GM) voxels by other...

SoftED: Metrics for Soft Evaluation of Time Series Event Detection (2024)
Journal Article
Salles, R., Lima, J., Reis, M., Coutinho, R., Pacitti, E., Masseglia, F., Akbarinia, R., Chen, C., Garibaldi, J., Porto, F., & Ogasawara, E. (2024). SoftED: Metrics for Soft Evaluation of Time Series Event Detection. Computers and Industrial Engineering, 198, Article 110728. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cie.2024.110728

Time series event detectors are evaluated mainly by standard classification metrics, focusing solely on detection accuracy. However, inaccuracy in detecting an event can often result from its preceding or delayed effects reflected in neighboring dete...
