(2021)The twist-bend nematic phase (NTB) exhibits a complicated hierarchy of structures responsible for several intriguing properties presented here. These are: the observation of a fast electrooptic response, the exhibition of ... -
Massive MIMO and Millimetre Wave Technologies: Design, Application and Integration with ML Techniques for 5G and Beyond Networks
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Electronic & Elect. Engineering, 2021)Massive Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (mMIMO) and millimetre Wave (mmWave) are key enabling technologies to realise omnipresent, scalable and dynamic 5-th Generation (5G) and beyond networks that provide seamless wireless ... -
Deep Cross-Modal Alignment in Audio-Visual Speech Recognition
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Electronic & Elect. Engineering, 2021)Modern studies in cognitive psychology have demonstrated that speech perception is a multimodal process, as opposed to a purely auditory one with visual carryover as in the classic view. This led researchers to investigate ... -
Heterogeneous Communication Virtualization for Distributed Embedded Applications
(IEEE, 2021)Distributed embedded applications (DEAs) are typically implemented on diverse embedded nodes interconnected through communication network(s) to exchange data and control information to achieve the desired ... -
Dipole-Dipole Coupling and Other Interaction Effects in Polar Dielectrics and Magnetic Relaxation of Single Domain Ferromagnetic Nanoparticles
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Electronic & Elect. Engineering, 2021)The main purpose of this thesis is to provide the precise details of the very onerous calculations underlying our two published papers [1] and [2]. Thus, the latter can be better understood and utilised later for future ... -
Neural Turn-Taking Models for Spoken Dialogue Systems
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Electronic & Elect. Engineering, 2021)In order to simulate naturalistic turn-taking behaviours, such as fast-turn switches, intentional overlap, backchanneling, and barge-in, spoken dialogue systems (SDSs) will need to have computational models of turn-taking ... -
Network Sharing for Reliable Networks: A Data-Driven Study
(2020)The next generation of mobile networks will bring an appetite for reliable communication, which enables emerging critical-communication services. In this paper, we present network sharing between operators as a way to ... -
Multi-operator connectivity sharing for reliable networks: a data-driven risk analysis
(2021)A key distinction between today’s and future networks is the appetite for reliable communication to support emerging critical-communication services. In this paper, we study multi-operator connectivity as a form of redundancy ... -
Build automation and runtime abstraction for partial reconfiguration on Xilinx Zynq Ultrascale+
(2020)Partial reconfiguration (PR) is fundamental to building adaptive systems on modern FPGA SoCs, where hardware can be adapted dynamically at runtime. Vendor supported reconfiguration is performance ... -
VEGa: A high performance vehicular Ethernet gateway on hybrid FPGA
(2017)Modern vehicles employ a large amount of distributed computation and require the underlying communication scheme to provide high bandwidth and low latency. Existing communication protocols like Controller Area Network (CAN) ... -
Joint caching and communication for future wireless networks
Recently, caching the most popular content at network edges has emerged as a promising technique to avoid serving all requests from the core network through highly congested backhaul links. From the caching perspective, ... -
Preparation and characterisation of metallorganic precursors derived iron oxides on porous silicon layers
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd., Switzerland, 2020)Porous silicon has generated interest in scientific community after its photoluminescence discovery and thereafter, research was focused on to the chemical functionalization of silicon and subsequent anchoring of nanoparticles ... -

The impact of visual speech on neural processing of auditory speech
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Electronic & Elect. Engineering, 2021)When we listen to someone speak, seeing their face can help us to understand them better, especially when there is background noise or other people speaking at the same time. Research examining the neural processes underlying ... -
Uncovering the effects of semantic context on the cortical processing of continuous speech using computational models of language
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Electronic & Elect. Engineering, 2021)The semantic context in which spoken words appear will greatly shape how they are understood by the human brain. This understanding is underpinned by a hierarchical system that processes increasingly abstract features of ... -
