Playing fast and loose with music recognition (2017)
Conference Proceeding

We report lessons from iteratively developing a music recognition system to enable a wide range of musicians to embed musical codes into their typical performance practice. The musician composes fragments of music that can be played back with varying... Read More about Playing fast and loose with music recognition.

Performing Research: Four contributions to HCI (2017)
Conference Proceeding

This paper identifies a body of HCI research wherein the researchers take part in digitally mediated creative experiences alongside participants. We present our definition and rationale for "self-situated performance research" based on theories in bo... Read More about Performing Research: Four contributions to HCI.

Misrepresentation of Health Research in Exertion Games Literature (2017)
Conference Proceeding

HCI often requires scholars to build upon research from fields outside their expertise, creating the risk that foundational work is misunderstood and misrepresented. The prevailing goal of “exergames” research towards ameliorating obesity appears to... Read More about Misrepresentation of Health Research in Exertion Games Literature.

Ways of Spectating: Unravelling Spectator Participation in Kinect Play (2017)
Conference Proceeding

We explore spectating on video game play as an interactional and participatory activity. Drawing on a corpus of video recordings capturing 'naturally occurring' Kinect gaming within home settings, we detail how the analytic 'work' of spectating is in...

A survey of the trajectories conceptual framework: Investigating theory use in HCI (2017)
Conference Proceeding

We present a case study of how Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) theory is reused within the field. We analyze the HCI literature in order to reveal the impact of one particular theory, the trajectories framework that has been cited as an example of b...

Optimising strategy selection for the management of railway assets (2017)
Conference Proceeding

In the railway industry a main concern is how to manage efficiently and effectively the railway assets under budget constraints. Optimal asset management involves decision making and selection of the best inspection, maintenance and renewal intervent...

Railway bridge fault detection using Bayesian belief network (2017)
Conference Proceeding

Bridges are one of the most critical structures of the railway system. External loads may affect the bridge health state, and consequently their safety, availability and reliability can be improved by monitoring their condition and planning maintenan...

Bridge asset management using Petri-Nets (2017)
Conference Proceeding

Management of a diverse portfolio of assets is a demanding and complex task. Although extensive research has been carried out in bridge asset management models, the model developed in this study contains flexibility which is able to model a vast arra...

Exploring the capabilities of Projection Augmented Relief Models (PARM) (2017)
Conference Proceeding

This paper explores the broad capabilities of physical landscape models when augmented by projection, termed Projection Augmented Relief Models (PARM). This includes experiences of developing PARM displays in public settings such as museums and visit... Read More about Exploring the capabilities of Projection Augmented Relief Models (PARM).

Route level analysis of road pavement surface condition and truck fleet fuel consumption (2017)
Conference Proceeding

Experimental studies have estimated the impact of road surface conditions on vehicle fuel consumption to be up to 5% (Beuving et al., 2004). Similar results have been published by Zaabar and Chatti (2010). However, this was established testing a limi...

A big data approach to assess the influence of road pavement condition on truck fleet fuel consumption (2017)
Conference Proceeding

In Europe, the road network is the most extensive and valuable infrastructure asset. In England, for example, its value has been estimated at around £344 billion and every year the government spends approximately £4 billion on highway maintenance (Ho...
