'Immune System Approaches to Intrusion Detection - A Review' (2004)
Conference Proceeding
Aickelin, U., Greensmith, J., & Twycross, J. (2004). 'Immune System Approaches to Intrusion Detection - A Review'.

Abstract. The use of artificial immune systems in intrusion detection is an appealing concept for two reasons. Firstly, the human immune system provides the human body with a high level of protection from invading pathogens, in a robust, s...

An Indirect Genetic Algorithm for a Nurse Scheduling Problem (2004)
Journal Article
Aickelin, U., & Dowsland, K. (2004). An Indirect Genetic Algorithm for a Nurse Scheduling Problem. Computers and Operations Research, 31(5), https://doi.org/10.1016/S0305-0548%2803%2900034-0

This paper describes a Genetic Algorithms approach to a manpower-scheduling problem arising at a major UK hospital. Although Genetic Algorithms have been successfully used for similar problems in the past, they always had to overcome the limitations...

'On Affinity Measures for Artificial Immune System Movie Recommenders' (2004)
Conference Proceeding
Aickelin, U., & Chen, Q. (2004). 'On Affinity Measures for Artificial Immune System Movie Recommenders'.

Abstract. We combine Artificial Immune Systems (AIS) technology with Collaborative Filtering (CF) and use it to build a movie recommendation system. We already know that Artificial Immune Systems work well as movie recommenders from previous work by... Read More about 'On Affinity Measures for Artificial Immune System Movie Recommenders'.

'Investigating Artificial Immune Systems For Job Shop Rescheduling In Changing Environments' (2004)
Conference Proceeding
Aickelin, U., Burke, E., & Mohamed Din, A. (2004). 'Investigating Artificial Immune Systems For Job Shop Rescheduling In Changing Environments'.

ABSTRACT Artificial immune system can be used to generate schedules in changing environments and it has been proven to be more robust than schedules developed using a genetic algorithm. Good schedules can be produced especially when the number of... Read More about 'Investigating Artificial Immune Systems For Job Shop Rescheduling In Changing Environments'.

'Artificial Immune Systems: A new Decision Making Paradigm for Operational Research' (2004)
Conference Proceeding
Aickelin, U. (2004). 'Artificial Immune Systems: A new Decision Making Paradigm for Operational Research'.

Over the last few years, more and more heuristic decision making techniques have been inspired by nature, e.g. evolutionary algorithms, ant colony optimisation and simulated annealing. More recently, a novel computational intelligence technique inspi... Read More about 'Artificial Immune Systems: A new Decision Making Paradigm for Operational Research'.

Efficient delivery of Cre-recombinase to neurons in vivo and stable transduction of neurons using adeno-associated and lentiviral vectors (2004)
Journal Article
Ahmed, B., Chakravarthy, S., Eggers, R., Hermens, W., Zhang, J., Niclou, S., …Verhaagen, J. (2004). Efficient delivery of Cre-recombinase to neurons in vivo and stable transduction of neurons using adeno-associated and lentiviral vectors. BMC Neuroscience, 5(1), Article 4. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2202-5-4

BACKGROUND: Inactivating genes in vivo is an important technique for establishing their function in the adult nervous system. Unfortunately, conventional knockout mice may suffer from several limitations including embryonic or perinatal lethality and...
