Combining experts in order to identify binding sites in genomic data
Rezwan, F.; Sun, Yi.; Robinson, M.; Adams, R.G.; Rust, A.G.; Davey, N. (2008)The identification of cis-regulatory binding sites in DNA is a difficult problem in computational biology. To obtain a full understanding of the complex machinery embodied in genetic regulatory networks it is necessary to ... -
Combining experts in order to identify binding sites in yeast and mouse genomic data
Robinson, M.; Gonzalez Castellano, C.; Rezwan, F.; Adams, R.G.; Davey, N.; Rust, A.G.; Sun, Yi. (2008)The identification of cis-regulatory binding sites in DNA is a difficult problem in computational biology. To obtain a full understanding of the complex machinery embodied in genetic regulatory networks it is necessary to ... -
Combining low-level perception with expectations in CHREST
Lane, P.C.R.; Sykes, A.K.; Gobet, F. (2003)The ability of humans to reliably perceive and recognise objects relies on an interaction between information seen in the visual image and prior expectations. We describe an extension to the CHREST computational model which ... -
Combining machine learning and simulations of a morphologically realistic model to study modulation of neuronal activity in cerebellar nuclei
Alva, Parimala; Kroos, Lieke; Eelkman Rooda, Oscar; De Zeeuw, Chris I.; Adams, R.G.; Davey, N.; Hoebeek, Freek E.; Steuber, Volker (2014-07-21)Epileptic absence seizures are characterized by synchronized oscillatory activity in the cerebral cortex that can be recorded as so-called spike-and-wave discharges (SWDs) by electroencephalogram. Although the cerebral ... -
Common concepts in agent groups, symmetries, and conformity in a simple environment
Moller, M.; Polani, D. (MIT Press, 2008)We analyze representations of the world attained through an infomax principle by agents acting in a simple environment. The representations obtained by different agents in general differ to some extent from each other in ... -
Communication as an Emergent Metaphor for Neuronal Operation
Nasuto, S.J.; Dautenhahn, K.; Bishop, J. M. (1999)The conventional computational description of brain operations has to be understood in a metaphorical sense. In this paper arguments supporting the claim that this metaphor is too restrictive are presented. A new metaphor ... -
Communicative Robot Signals: Presenting a New Typology for Human-Robot Interaction
Holthaus, Patrick; Schulz, Trenton; Lakatos, Gabriella; Soma, Rebekka (ACM Press, 2023-03-13)We present a new typology for classifying signals from robots when they communicate with humans. For inspiration, we use ethology, the study of animal behaviour and previous efforts from literature as guides in defining ... -
Companion robots for elderly people : Using theatre to investigate potential users' views
Walters, M.L.; Koay, K.L.; Syrdal, D.S.; Campbell, A.; Dautenhahn, K. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2013)A theatre production of a play illustrating the functionality, social and ethical aspects of robots helping with aspects of elderly care was presented at a residential care home. The audience consisted of mainly elderly ... -
Comparative performances of stochastic competitive evolutionary neural tree (SCENT) with neural classifiers
Pensuwon, W.; Adams, R.G.; Davey, N. (2001)A stochastic competitive evolutionary neural tree (SCENT) is described and evaluated against the best neural classifiers with equivalent functionality, using a collection of data sets chosen to provide a variety of clustering ... -
A Comparative Study of Hidden Markov Model and Support Vector Machine in Anomaly Intrusion Detection
Jain, Ruchi; Abouzakhar, Nasser (2013-12)This paper aims to analyse the performance of Hidden Markov Model (HMM) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) for anomaly intrusion detection. These techniques discriminate between normal and abnormal behaviour of network ... -
Comparing computational and human measures of visual similarity
Gale, T.M.; Sun, Yi.; Adams, R.G.; Davey, N. (World Scientific Publishing, 2005)There have been many attempts to quantify visual similarity within different categories of objects, with a view to using such measures to predict impaired recognition performance. Although many studies have linked measures ... -
Comparing different control architectures for autobiographical agents in static virtual environments
Ho, W.C.; Dautenhahn, K.; Nehaniv, C.L. (2003) -
Comparing human robot interaction scenarios using live and video based methods: towards a novel methodological approach
Woods, S.; Walters, M.L.; Koay, K.L.; Dautenhahn, K. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2006)This paper presents results of a pilot study that investigated whether people’s perceptions from live and video HRI trials were comparable. Subjects participated in a live HRI trial and videotaped HRI trials in which the ... -
Comparing PCG metrics with Human Evaluation in Minecraft Settlement Generation
Herve, Jean-Baptiste; Salge, Christoph (ACM Press, 2021-10-21)There are a range of metrics that can be applied to the artifacts produced by procedural content generation, and several of themcome with qualitative claims. In this paper, we adapt a range of existing PCG metrics to ... -

Leon, Beatriz; Basteris, Angelo; Amirabdollahian, Farshid (Curran Associates, 2014) -
Comparing the performance of fault prediction models which report multiple performance measures : recomputing the confusion matrix
Bowes, David; Hall, Tracy; Gray, David (ACM Press, 2012)There are many hundreds of fault prediction models published in the literature. The predictive performance of these models is often reported using a variety of different measures. Most performance measures are not directly ... -
