Applying machine learning methods for characterization of hexagonal prisms from their 2D scattering patterns – an investigation using modelled scattering data
(2017-11-01)Better understanding and characterization of cloud particles, whose properties and distributions affect climate and weather, are essential for the understanding of present climate and climate change. Since imaging cloud ... -
Applying machine learning techniques to predict laminar burning velocity for ammonia/hydrogen/air mixtures
(2023-06-16)Ammonia utilisation in internal combustion engines has attracted wide interest due to the current trend toward decarbonisation, as ammonia is a zero-carbon fuel with different combustion properties to hydrocarbons. The ... -
Applying meta-abilities to outsourcing: an individual based conceptual framework
(ECIS Standing Committee, 2008)To cope with the current turbulent times, organisations’ are seeking a range of solutions and one of the most publicised strategies for this in recent times is outsourcing. In the Information Systems (IS) area, outsourcing ... -
Applying Mobile Robot Technology to the Rehabilitation of Autistic Children
(1999)The paper discusses the background and major motivations which are driving the AuRoRA--(Autonomous Robotic platform as a Remedial tool for children with Autism) research project. We argue--that mobile robot technology can ... -
Applying Multi-Criteria Optimisation to Develop Cognitive Models
(Birkbeck, 2005)A scientific theory is developed by modelling empirical data in a range of domains. The goal of developing a theory is to optimise the t of the theory to as many experimental settings as possible, whilst retaining some ... -
Applying software metrics to formal specifications : a cognitive approach.
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 1998)It is generally accepted that failure to reason correctly during the early stages of software development causes developers to make incorrect decisions which can lead to the introduction of faults or anomalies in systems. ... -
Applying subclustering and Lp distance in Weighted K-Means with distributed centroids
(2016-01-15)We consider the Weighted K-Means algorithm with distributed centroids aimed at clustering data sets with numerical, categorical and mixed types of data. Our approach allows given features (i.e., variables) to have different ... -
Applying techniques from foreign language teaching to computer science
(University of Hertfordshire, 1993)As increasingly large numbers of students enter higher education, it is necessary to rethink teaching strategies and the allocation of resources to cope with class sizes that are well over the three figure mark. In the ... -
Applying the Motivation, Opportunity, Ability (MOA) model, and Self-Efficacy (S-E) to better understand student engagement on Undergraduate Event Management Programs
(2018-04-11)Considering the motivation, opportunity, ability (MOA) model and the self-efficacy (S-E) component of the social cognitive theory (SCT), this article aims to examine through a series of four research questions whether such ... -
Applying the motivation-opportunity-ability (MOA) model to reveal factors that influence inclusive engagement within local community festivals : The case of UtcaZene 2012
(2013)This paper contributes to the debate on community engagement and participation in local community festivals and events by empirically analysing the factors which either inhibit or facilitate engagement therein. The ... -
Applying the multi-zone model in predicting the operating range of HCCI engines
(2010-09)In this paper, a multi-zone model is developed to predict the operating range of homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engines. The boundaries of the operating range were determined by knock (presented by ringing ... -

(2023-03-10)This article sets out key issues in determining and upholding the best interests of children, in need of social service support, who have family networks that span outside of the UK. These issues are then analysed against ... -
Applying work-based learning practice and theories to the employability skills and learning opportunities of music students
(2013-07)The music industry is a highly fragmented commercial sector, which is facing ma-jor challenges and undergoing rapid change. When evaluating potential employ-ees during a time that key roles are evolving to meet the demands ... -
Applying ‘self-efficacy’ theory to the Motivation-Opportunity-Ability (MOA) Model to reveal factors that influence inclusive engagement within local community festivals
(2013-06)Purpose: This paper makes the case for integrating Bandura’s (1986) theory of self-efficacy within the Motivation-Opportunity-Ability (MOA) model and demonstrates how this could be achieved by applying it to a local community ... -
