Track validation using gradient-based normalised cross-correlation
(BMVA Press, 2011)We develop a gradient-based normalised cross-correlation tracker that is as robust as brute-force template matching while being signi?cantly more computationally ef?cient. The technique serves as the basis of our track ... -
Deployment Strategies for Protected Long-Reach PON
(2012)The mass deployment of ?bre access networks is probably the most important network upgrade strategy for operators over the coming decade. Next generation networks, and in particular the Long-Reach Passive Optical Network ... -
A Combinatorial Optimisation Approach to the Design of Dual Parented Long-Reach Passive Optical Networks
(2011)We present an application focused on the design of resilient long-reach passive optical networks. We speci?cally consider dual parented networks whereby each customer must be connected to two metro sites via a local exchange ... -
A Process Algebraic Description of a Temporal Wireless Network Protocol
(2011)The problem of coordination is central to research in robotics, automatically guided vehicles, autonomous cars, unmanned aerial vehicles, and any other areas in which autonomous agents of any kind operate concurrently. ... -
On stochastic tree distances and their training via Expectation-Maximisation
(2012)Continuing a line of work initiated in (Boyer et al., 2007), a generalisation of stochastic string distance to a stochastic tree distance is considered. Hitheto overlooked modifications to the Zhang/Shasha tree-distance ... -
On order equivalences between distance and similarity measures on sequences and trees
(2012)Both ?distance? and ?similarity? measures have been proposed for the comparison of sequences and for the comparison of trees, based on scoring mappings, and the paper concerns the equivalence or otherwise of these. These ... -
Collaboration and multimedia: identifying equilibrium in the MDT information ecosystem
(ACM, 2012)his study of collaboration among a multidisciplinary team of healthcare workers demonstrates that elements intrinsic to the interaction constitute a delicate ecosystem. As the balance between actors, digital media and paper ... -
Towards Multilingual User Models for Personalized Multilingual Information Retrieval
(ACM, 2011-06-09)The majority of studies in Personalized Information Retrieval (PIR) literature have focused on monolingual IR, and only relatively little work has been done concerning multilingual IR. In this paper we propose a novel ... -
Improving Query and Result List Adaptation in Personalized Multilingual Information Retrieval
(ACM, 2011-07)This research study aims to improve personalization in MIR systems, by improving the relevance of multilingual search results with respect to the user and not just the query. The study investigates how to model different ... -
A comparative survey of Personalised Information Retrieval and Adaptive Hypermedia techniques
(Elsevier, 2012-07)A key driver for next generation web information retrieval systems is becoming the degree to which a user?s search and presentation experience is adapted to individual user properties and contexts of use. Over the past ... -
Language and friendships: A co-evolution model of social and linguistic conventions
(World Scientific, 2012)Human social networks are dynamic, yet the majority of computational models of language evolution operate with either fixed or random interaction patterns between agents. This paper presents a model of lexicon formation ... -
Regular relations for temporal propositions
(Cambridge University Press, 2011)Relations computed by finite-state transducers are applied to interpret temporal propositions in terms of strings representing finite contexts or situations. Carnap?Montague intensions mapping indices to extensions are ... -
Personalised Role Playing Simulations
(2011-06-09)This research explores the use of personalised role playing simulations to encourage active student engagement in the learning process. Personalised role playing simulations could provide educators with an alternative ... -
The Human Computer Interaction issues associated with the creation of personalized role playing simulations
(2011)The human computer interaction issues associated with the creation of personalized role playing simulations are discussed in this paper. This paper is aimed at those who are interested in building authoring ... -
Feedback from students and lecturers: Technology Enhanced Learning improving the learning experience of students
(2011)Technology is pervading all areas of education and training. The use of interactive whiteboards is on the increase in our local primary schools. The use of learning management systems and e-learning platforms are ... -
The Student Perspective: Can the Use of Technologies Transform Learning?
(Information Science Reference (an imprint of IGI Global), 2010)This chapter explores students? perspectives on the transformations that the use of technology has brought to higher education. The use of technologies in higher education facilitates flexible learning environments but ... -
Students' Overview: The impact of technology on learning in higher education
(2010-10-06)In April 2009 this survey was conducted in the Faculty of Business, Dublin Institute of Technology (DIT) and the findings were presented in a chapter of a book. ?Critical Design and Effective Tools for E-Learning in Higher ... -
Students' views of E-Learning: The impact of technology on learning in higher education in Ireland
(Information Science Reference (an imprint of IGI Global), 2012)Students are the end users of the Information Systems that educators use to enhance students? learning experiences. The use of technologies in education has altered the ways in which lecturers and students can interact ...
