Physical activity in traumatic brain injury rehabilitation (2010)
Book
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) can result in a range of physical, cognitive, emotional and behavioural problems. Exercise is increasingly advocated in brain injury rehabilitation since individuals with long-term conditions are at particular risk of dec...

Staging criminality and colonial authority: the execution of thug criminals in British India (2010)
Journal Article
This essay examines the spectacular and stage-managed mass executions carried out during the East India Company administration’s campaign against thug criminals during the 1830s. Drawing on Foucault’s concept of the execution as an occasion for the d... Read More about Staging criminality and colonial authority: the execution of thug criminals in British India.
Soldier photography of detainee abuse in Iraq: digital technology, human rights and the death of Baha Mousa (2010)
Journal Article
Digital media technologies provide new opportunities for the recording and publicising of human rights violations. In recent years, soldier photography during military conflicts has become one of the most controversial sources of images of abuse, esp...

International law, the United Kingdom and decisions to deploy troops abroad (2010)
Journal Article
Examines the role that international law plays in UK institutions of government when considering the deployment of armed forces to conflict and post-conflict zones. This is put into the context of the debate in the UK about the introduction of a War... Read More about International law, the United Kingdom and decisions to deploy troops abroad.
Real-world transfer of evolved artificial immune system behaviours between small and large scale robotic platforms (2010)
Journal Article
In mobile robotics, a solid test for adaptation is the ability of a control system to function not only in a diverse number of physical environments, but also on a number of different robotic platforms. This paper demonstrates that a set of behavi... Read More about Real-world transfer of evolved artificial immune system behaviours between small and large scale robotic platforms.
Prospective metanalysis within complementary medicine research (2010)

Journal Article
Detecting anomalous process behaviour using second generation Artificial Immune Systems (2010)
Journal Article
Artificial Immune Systems have been successfully applied to a number of problem domains including fault tolerance and data mining, but have been shown to scale poorly when applied to computer intrusion detection despite the fact that the biological i...

Bidirectional relighting for 3D-aided 2D face recognition (2010)
Conference Proceeding
In this paper, we present a new method for bidirectional relighting for 3D-aided 2D face recognition under large pose and illumination changes. During subject enrollment, we build subject-specific 3D annotated models by using the subjects' raw 3D dat... Read More about Bidirectional relighting for 3D-aided 2D face recognition.
Understanding cardiac alternans: a piecewise linear modeling framework (2010)
Journal Article
Cardiac alternans is a beat-to-beat alternation in action potential duration (APD) and intracellular calcium (Ca²⁺) cycling seen in cardiac myocytes under rapid pacing that is believed to be a precursor to fibrillation. The cellular mechanisms of the... Read More about Understanding cardiac alternans: a piecewise linear modeling framework.
A combined oxygen and silicon diatom isotope record of Late Quaternary change in Lake El'gygytgyn, North East Siberia (2010)
Journal Article
Determining the response of sites within the Arctic Circle to long-term climatic change remains an essential pre-requisite for assessing the susceptibility of these regions to future global warming and Arctic amplification. To date, existing records... Read More about A combined oxygen and silicon diatom isotope record of Late Quaternary change in Lake El'gygytgyn, North East Siberia.
Salinity changes in the North West Pacific Ocean during the late Pliocene/early Quaternary from 2.73 Ma to 2.52 Ma (2010)
Journal Article
Recent research has increasingly advocated a role for the North Pacific Ocean in modulating global climatic changes over both the last glacial cycle and further back into the geological record. Here a diatom δ18O record is presented from Ocean Drilli... Read More about Salinity changes in the North West Pacific Ocean during the late Pliocene/early Quaternary from 2.73 Ma to 2.52 Ma.
A comparison of the Si/Al and Si/time wet-alkaline digestion methods for measurement of biogenic silica in lake sediments (2010)
Journal Article
Existing techniques for measuring sediment Biogenic Silica (BSi) concentrations rely largely on conventional (Si-only) wet-alkaline digestion methods. Although results have provided detailed palaeoenvironmental information, potential errors can arise...

A new penalty term for the BIC with respect to speaker diarization (2010)
Conference Proceeding
In this paper we examine a new penalty term for the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) that is suited to the problem of speaker diarization. Based on our previous approach of penalizing each cluster only with its effective sample size - an approach... Read More about A new penalty term for the BIC with respect to speaker diarization.
Public perceptions of energy choices: the influence of beliefs about climate change and the environment (2010)
Journal Article
Past research has documented high levels of public concern for risks relating to nuclear power, with opposition to nuclear energy particularly being linked with general environmental concern. However recent UK energy policy, and other debates worldwi... Read More about Public perceptions of energy choices: the influence of beliefs about climate change and the environment.
Framing and communicating climate change: the effects of distance and outcome frame manipulations (2010)
Journal Article
Communications regarding climate change are increasingly being utilised in order to encourage sustainable behaviour and the way that these are framed can significantly alter the impact that they have on the recipient. This experimental study seeks t... Read More about Framing and communicating climate change: the effects of distance and outcome frame manipulations.
Interregional synchrony of visuomotor tracking: perturbation effects and individual differences (2010)
Journal Article
The present study evaluated the neural and behavioural correlates associated with a visuomotor tracking task during which a sensory perturbation was introduced that created a directional bias between moving hand and cursor position. The results revea... Read More about Interregional synchrony of visuomotor tracking: perturbation effects and individual differences.
A novel framework to elucidate core classes in a dataset (2010)
Conference Proceeding
In this paper we present an original framework to extract representative groups from a dataset, and we validate it over a novel case study. The framework specifies the application of different clustering algorithms, then several statistical and visu... Read More about A novel framework to elucidate core classes in a dataset.
