Engineering Concurrent Software Guided by Statistical Performance Analysis
Scheuermann, Bernd; Grelck, Clemens; Hammond, Kevin; Hertlein, Heinz; Hoelzenspies, Philip; Jesshope, Chris; Kirner, Raimund; Shafarenko, Alex; te Boekhorst, Rene; Wieser, Volkmar (IOS Press, 2011)This paper introduces the ADVANCE approach to engineering concurrent systems using a new component-based approach. A cost-directed tool-chain maps concurrent programs onto emerging hardware architectures, where costs are ... -
Enhanced Electric Vehicle Integration in the UK Low Voltage Networks with Distributed Phase Shifting Control
Vega-Fuentes, Eduardo; Denai, Mouloud (2019-04-09)Electric vehicles (EV) have gained global attention due to increasing oil prices and rising concerns about transportation-related urban air pollution and climate change. While mass adoption of EVs has several economic and ... -
Enhancement of multimodal biometric segregation using unconstrained cohort normalisation
Alsaade, F.; Ariyaeeinia, A.; Malegaonkar, A.; Pawlewski, M.; Pillay, S.G. (2008)This paper presents an investigation into the effects, on the accuracy of multimodal biometrics, of introducing unconstrained cohort normalisation (UCN) into the score-level fusion process. Whilst score normalisation has ... -
Enhancing Convolutional Neural Networks for Face Recognition with Occlusion Maps and Batch Triplet Loss
Sáez-Trigueros, Daniel; Meng, Li; Hartnett, Margaret (2018-11-01)Despite the recent success of convolutional neural networks for computer vision applications, unconstrained face recognition remains a challenge. In this work, we make two contributions to the field. Firstly, we consider ... -
Entropy Indicators for Investigating Early Language Processes
Lyon, C.; Nehaniv, C.L.; Dickerson, B. (The Society for the Study of Artificial Intelligence and the Simulation of Behaviour (AISB), 2005)We examine evidence for the hypothesis that language could have passed through a stage when words were combined in structured linear segments and these linear segments could later have become the building blocks for a full ... -

Estimation of the rotational terms of the dynamic response matrix
Montalvao, D; Ribeiro, A. M. R.; Maia, N. M. M.; Silva, J. M. M. (2004)The dynamic response of a structure can be described by both its translational and rotational receptances. The latter ones are frequently not considered because of the difficulties in applying a pure moment excitation or ... -

Etidronate rescues cognitive deficits through improving synaptic transmission and suppressing apoptosis in 2-vessel occlusion model rats
Li, Wen; Yuan, Huijuan; Yu, Yao; Cheong, Yuen-Ki; Ren, Guogang; Yang, Zhuo (2017-01-20)Vascular dementia (VD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by the reduction of cerebral blood flow. It shows a progressive cognitive impairment. In our previous study, we found that etidronate (ET) showed neuroprotective ... -
Evaluation of auditory feedback on task performance in virtual assembly environment
Zhang, Y.; Sotudeh, R. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2004)This paper presents our approach for the integration of auditory feedback into virtual assembly environment (VAE), and the investigation of the effect of auditory and visual feedback on the assembly task performance in ... -
Evaluation of flow characteristics that give higher mixing performance in the 3-D T-mixer versus the typical T-mixer
Cortes, Cesar; Azarbadegan, Alireza; Zangeneh, Mehrdad (2014-10-31)A 3-D configuration of a T-mixer is evaluated under normal operating conditions of the called convective micromixers. The design has been called 3-D T-mixer in our previous work [1] as it adopts a three-dimensional structure ... -
