Bio-instructive materials that intrinsically inhibit biofilm formation have significant anti-biofouling potential in industrial and healthcare settings. Since bacterial surface attachment is sensitive to surface topography, we experimentally surveyed...

Mojib Luna, S., Xu, J., Tigwell, G. W., LaLone, N., Saker, M., Chamberlain, A., Schwartz, D. I., & Papangelis, K. (2025, April). Exploring Deaf And Hard of Hearing Peoples' Perspectives On Tasks In Augmented Reality: Interacting With 3D Objects And Instructional Comprehension. Presented at 2025 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, Yokohama, Japan

Tasks in augmented reality (AR), such as 3D interaction and instructional comprehension, are often designed for users with uniform sensory abilities. Such an approach, however, can overlook the more nuanced needs of Deaf and Hard of Hearing (DHH) use...

Robots in Pain, Humans in Play: Soma as a Qualitative Method for Investigating Intelligent Human-Robot Configurations (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chamberlain, A., Ngo, V., McGarry, G., Kucukyilmaz, A., Benford, S., & Higgins, A. (2025, February). Robots in Pain, Humans in Play: Soma as a Qualitative Method for Investigating Intelligent Human-Robot Configurations. Presented at Designing for Bodies: Practices, Imaginaries and Discourses, University of Southern Denmark, Kolding

In this piece we start to explore the ways in which we somatise our interaction with robots as a symbiotic system - both as human and robot, and as human-robot. We also consider the ways that we might want to take our physical nature (existence), for...

A method for the ethical analysis of brain-inspired AI (2024)
Journal Article
Farisco, M., Baldassarre, G., Cartoni, E., Leach, A., Petrovici, M. A., Rosemann, A., Salles, A., Stahl, B., & van Albada, S. J. (2024). A method for the ethical analysis of brain-inspired AI. Artificial Intelligence Review, 57(6), Article 133. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10462-024-10769-4

Despite its successes, to date Artificial Intelligence (AI) is still characterized by a number of shortcomings with regards to different application domains and goals. These limitations are arguably both conceptual (e.g., related to the underlying th... Read More about A method for the ethical analysis of brain-inspired AI.

Neural Network Assisted Genetic Programming in Dynamic Container Port Truck Dispatching (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chen, X., Bao, F., Qu, R., Dong, J., & Bai, R. (2023, September). Neural Network Assisted Genetic Programming in Dynamic Container Port Truck Dispatching. Presented at 2023 IEEE 26th International Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSC), Bilbao, Spain

Efficient truck dispatching is crucial for container port operations. Dynamic container port truck dispatching, a complex online optimization problem, poses significant challenges due to its uncertain and non-linear nature. This paper presents a nove...

Two-Level Type Theory and Applications (2023)
Journal Article
Annenkov, D., Capriotti, P., Kraus, N., & Sattler, C. (2023). Two-Level Type Theory and Applications. Mathematical Structures in Computer Science, 33(8), 688-743. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0960129523000130

We define and develop two-level type theory (2LTT), a version of Martin-Löf type theory which combines two different type theories. We refer to them as the ‘inner’ and the ‘outer’ type theory. In our case of interest, the inner theory is homotopy typ... Read More about Two-Level Type Theory and Applications.

Background: Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive fibrotic lung disease with a variable clinical trajectory. Decline in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) is the main indicator of progression, however missingness prevents long-term analysis o...
