Machine learning to determine the main factors affecting creep rates in laser powder bed fusion (2021)
Journal Article
Sanchez, S., Rengasamy, D., Hyde, C. J., Figueredo, G. P., & Rothwell, B. (2021). Machine learning to determine the main factors affecting creep rates in laser powder bed fusion. Journal of Intelligent Manufacturing, 32(8), 2353–2373. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10845-021-01785-0

There is an increasing need for the use of additive manufacturing (AM) to produce improved critical application engineering components. However, the materials manufactured using AM perform well below their traditionally manufactured counterparts, par...

Producing Liveness: The Trials of Moving Folk Clubs Online During the Global Pandemic (2021)
Conference Proceeding
Benford, S., Mansfield, P., & Spence, J. (2021). Producing Liveness: The Trials of Moving Folk Clubs Online During the Global Pandemic. In CHI '21: Proceedings of the 2021 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems. https://doi.org/10.1145/3411764.3445125

The global pandemic has driven musicians online. We report an ethnographic account of how two traditional folk clubs with little previous interest in digital platforms transitioned to online experiences. They followed very different approaches: one a... Read More about Producing Liveness: The Trials of Moving Folk Clubs Online During the Global Pandemic.

Health Care Cybersecurity Challenges and Solutions Under the Climate of COVID-19: Scoping Review (2021)

Background: COVID-19 has challenged the resilience of the health care information system, which has affected our ability to achieve the global goal of health and well-being. The pandemic has resulted in a number of recent cyberattacks on hospitals, p... Read More about Health Care Cybersecurity Challenges and Solutions Under the Climate of COVID-19: Scoping Review.

Creating a Digital Mirror of Creative Practice (2021)
Conference Proceeding
Johnson, C. (2021). Creating a Digital Mirror of Creative Practice. In Computational Intelligence in Music, Sound, Art and Design – 10th International Conference, EvoMUSART 2021 (427-442). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-72914-1_28

This paper describes an ongoing project to create a “digital mirror” to my practice as a composer of contemporary classical music; that is, a system that takes descriptions (in code) of aspects of that practice, and reflects them back as computer-gen...

Adaptive Covariance Pattern Search (2021)
Book Chapter
Neri, F. (2021). Adaptive Covariance Pattern Search. In P. A. Castillo, & J. L. Jiménez Laredo (Eds.), Applications of Evolutionary Computation – 24th International Conference, EvoApplications 2021 (178-193). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-72699-7_12

Pattern search is a family of single solution deterministic optimisation algorithms for numerical optimisation. Pattern search algorithms generate a new candidate solution by means of an archive of potential moves, named pattern. This pattern is gen... Read More about Adaptive Covariance Pattern Search.

Generalised Pattern Search Based on Covariance Matrix Diagonalisation (2021)
Journal Article
Neri, F., & Rostami, S. (2021). Generalised Pattern Search Based on Covariance Matrix Diagonalisation. SN Computer Science, 2, Article 171. https://doi.org/10.1007/s42979-021-00513-y

Pattern Search is a family of gradient-free direct search methods for numerical optimisation problems. The characterising feature of pattern search methods is the use of multiple directions spanning the problem domain to sample new candidate solution...
