Why they sat still: the ideas and values of long-serving teachers in challenging inner-city schools in England (2010)
Journal Article
McIntyre, J. (2010). Why they sat still: the ideas and values of long-serving teachers in challenging inner-city schools in England. Teachers and Teaching: Theory and Practice, 16(5), 595--614. https://doi.org/10.1080/13540602.2010.507968

Within the UK there are grave concerns about retention and attrition rates within the teaching profession, particularly in challenging schools. These are compounded by worries about the gap that will be left as long-serving teachers reach retirement...

Book
Whitt, R. (2010). Evidentiality and Perception Verbs in English and German. Peter Lang. https://doi.org/10.3726/978-3-0353-0306-3

Evidentiality, the linguistic encoding of a speaker’s or writer’s evidence for an asserted proposition, has begun to receive serious attention from linguists only in the last quarter century. Much of this attention has focused on languages that encod... Read More about Evidentiality and Perception Verbs in English and German.

Aurora kinases play an essential role in orchestrating chromosome alignment, segregation, and cytokinesis during mitotic progression and both aurora-A and B are frequently overexpressed in a variety of human malignancies. In this study, we report the... Read More about The FLT3 internal tandem duplication mutation is a secondary target of the aurora B kinase inhibitor AZD1152-HQPA in acute myelogenous leukemia cells.

A framework for camera pose tracking using stochastic data fusion (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Moemeni, A., & Tatham, E. (2010, December). A framework for camera pose tracking using stochastic data fusion. Presented at 2010 2nd International IEEE Consumer Electronics Society's Games Innovations Conference (ICE-GIC 2010), Hong Kong, China

A novel camera pose tracking system using a stochastic inertial-visual sensor fusion has been proposed. A method based on the Particle Filtering concept has been adapted for inertial and vision data fusion, which benefits from the agility of inertial...
