    • Exploring Linked Data For The Automatic Enrichment of Historical Archives 

      Lawless, Seamus (2018)
      With the increasing scale of online cultural heritage collections, the efforts of manually adding annotations to their contents become a challenging and costly endeavour. Entity Linking is a process used to automatically ...
    • C-HTS: A Concept-based Hierarchical Text Segmentation Approach 

      Lawless, Seamus; BAYOMI, MOSTAFA MOHAMED (2018)
      Hierarchical Text Segmentation is the task of building a hierarchical structure out of text to reflect its sub-topic hierarchy. Current text segmentation approaches are based upon using lexical and/or syntactic similarity ...
    • Adaptive levels of detail for interactive Collision Handling 

      Dingliana, John Lalzoliana (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2003)
      Collision Handling has long been a major bottleneck in physically based animation. As scene complexity increases the problem becomes critical enough to prohibit real-time performance in the animation system. Previous ...
    • Time Bounded Medium Access Control for ad hoc networks 

      Cunningham, Raymond (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2004)
      The widespread adoption and deployment of wireless local area networking and in particular wireless ad hoc networking poses a number of challenging problems for distributed real-time applications use this wireless technology ...
    • Bounding volume hierarchies for level-of-detail collision handling 

      Bradshaw, Gareth (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2002)
      Enforcing solidity of objects within simulations is a major computational overhead. Detecting interactions between bodies is a large part of this overhead. Many researchers have used hybrid collision detection algorithms ...
    • Formulaic Thought and Expression in Linguistic Politeness 

      Vogel, Carl (Peter Lang, 2019)
      Formulaic expressions constitute a heterogeneous category, in that some exhibit robust re-combinatory potential through modifiable and re-useable internal compositionality. Subcategories of linguistic politeness ...
    • Windfall Scale, Wealth Consciousness and Social Proximity as Influences on Ultimatum Game Decisions 

      Vogel, Carl (IEEE, 2018)
      —The ultimatum game is a construct used to explore factors that influence decision making in economic reasoning. The game involves two players who asymmetrically encounter a windfall, but both knowing the amount of the ...
    • Emotional faces of children and adults: What changes in their perception 

      Vogel, Carl (IEEE, 2018)
      This work investigates disparities between children and middle aged adults in their ability to decode the six primary facial expressions of emotions when portrayed by contemporary children and adult faces. The analyses ...
    • Prior Probabilities of Allen Interval Relations over Finite Orders 

      Vogel, Carl; Fernando, Rafael (2019)
      The probability that intervals are related by a particular Allen relation is calculated relative to sample spaces Ωn given by the number n of, in one case, points, and, in another, interval names. In both cases, worlds ...
    • Stigmergic QoS Optimisation for Flexible Service Composition in Mobile Environments 

      PALADE, ANDREI (Trinity College Dublin. School of Computer Science & Statistics. Discipline of Computer Science, 2019)
      With the increasing number of resource-rich handsets equipped with diverse wireless communication technologies, users within a limited geographical area can share the services deployed on their mobile devices to form ...
    • Naked objects 

      Pawson, Richard (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2004)
      The original concept of object-oriented software development was that the objects would be 'behaviouslly-complete' representations of the domain entities that they model. Although object oriented technologies now pervade ...
    • TRANSIT: adapting the Internet for mobile & ad hoc operation 

      Toner, Stephen (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2006)
      The current Internet struggles to cope with changing demands. Designed for a static network, the techniques that have evolved to configure devices, assign addresses and handle mobility, have proved inadequate in a mobile ...
    • Foundations for semantically enhanced component trading : a component type model 

      Terzis, Sotirios (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2005)
      This thesis introduces the notion of Semantically Enhanced Component Trading (SECT) in order to bring the notion of service discovery, widely used in large-scale networked and distributed systems, into the domain of ...
    • Aggregating case-based reasoners in ensembles : an approach in support of explanation 

      Zenobi, Gabriele (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2003)
      Among the reasons for the success Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) has achieved in tackling supervised learning problems, is certainly the capability to give a ranking to any case stored in the database depending on its similarity ...
    • The Taxy mobility system 

      Walsh, Tim (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2006)
      Mobile agents are entities that have execution lifetimes that axe not confined to a single host. They have the ability to migrate between different hosts in order to execute locally thereby avoiding remote communication. ...
    • Secure group communications in emergency ad hoc networks 

      Verma, Raja Rai Singh (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2006)
      Ad Hoc networks are an ideal way to form interactions between mobile wireless nodes of emergency services from different domains (i.e. organizations or countries). However, due to the frequent topological and membership ...
    • Visualisation and simulation of myocardial infarctions from 12-lead ECG 

      Ryan, John T. (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 2006)
      Myocardial Infarction (Ml) is one of the main causes of death throughout the world. More commonly known as heart attack, it is caused by the occlusion of one or more of the arteries that supply the heart. Cardiac enzymes ...
