A Novel Modal Shift Modelling Framework for Transport Systems (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Faboya, O. T., Siebers, P., Ryan, B., & Figueredo, G. P. (2017, September). A Novel Modal Shift Modelling Framework for Transport Systems. Paper presented at Social Simulation Conference 2017 (SSC2017)

The challenges from transport modes on human environments, health and economy, have called for investigations into how behavioural changes can be achieved for better resource utilisation. Trip makers' travel demands have been identified, and they inc... Read More about A Novel Modal Shift Modelling Framework for Transport Systems.

Vehicle incident hot spots identification: An approach for big data (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Triguero, I., Figueredo, G. P., Mesgarpour, M., Garibaldi, J. M., & John, R. (2017). Vehicle incident hot spots identification: An approach for big data. In Proceedings - 16th IEEE International Conference on Trust, Security and Privacy in Computing and Communications; 11th IEEE International Conference on Big Data Science and Engineering (IEEE BigDataSE); and 14th IEEE International Conference on Embedded Software and Systems, (901-908). https://doi.org/10.1109/Trustcom/BigDataSE/ICESS.2017.329

In this work we introduce a fast big data approach for road incident hot spot identification using Apache Spark. We implement an existing immuno-inspired mechanism, namely SeleSup, as a series of MapReduce-like operations. SeleSup is composed of a nu...

An Immune-Inspired Technique to Identify Heavy Goods Vehicles Incident Hot Spots (2017)
Journal Article
Figueredo, G. P., Triguero, I., Mesgarpour, M., Maciel Guerra, A., Garibaldi, J. M., & John, R. (2017). An Immune-Inspired Technique to Identify Heavy Goods Vehicles Incident Hot Spots. IEEE Transactions on Emerging Topics in Computational Intelligence, 1(4), 248-258. https://doi.org/10.1109/TETCI.2017.2721960

We report on the adaptation of an immune-inspired instance selection technique to solve a real-world big data problem of determining vehicle incident hot spots. The technique, which is inspired by the Immune System self-regulation mechanism, was orig... Read More about An Immune-Inspired Technique to Identify Heavy Goods Vehicles Incident Hot Spots.

© 2017 Elsevier Ltd TNF receptor associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS) is an autoinflammatory disease caused by mutations in TNF Receptor 1 (TNFR1). Current therapies for TRAPS are limited and do not target the pro-inflammatory signalling pathways tha...
