Designing motivational games for stroke rehabilitation
Shah, Nauman; Amirabdollahian, Farshid; Basteris, Angelo (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2014-06)Motivation plays in important role in rehabilitation after stroke. Multi-modal games can provide an engaging and interactive platform to motivate people to actively participate in the therapy. Designing games for rehabilitation ... -
Detecting partial occlusion of humans using snakes and neural networks
Tabb, Ken; Davey, N.; George, S.; Adams, R.G. (1999)This paper summarises the development of a computer system designed to detect moving humans in an image or series of images. The system combines the use of active contour models, ‘snakes’, which detect human objects in an ... -
Determinants of associative memory performance in spiking and non-spiking neural networks with different synaptic plasticity regimes
Metaxas, A.; Maex, Reinoud; Adams, R.G.; Steuber, Volker; Davey, N. (2012)Poster presented at CNS 2012 -
Determinants of gain modulation enabled by short-term depression at an inhibitory cerebellar synapse
Bampasakis, Dimitris; Maex, Reinoud; Davey, Neil; Steuber, Volker (2014-07-21)Neurons adapt rapidly the slope, also known as gain, of their input-output function to time-varying conditions. Gain modulation is a prominent mechanism in many brain processes, such as auditory processing and attention ... -
Determinants of pattern recognition by cerebellar Purkinje cells
De Sousa, Giseli; Adams, R.G.; Davey, N.; Steuber, Volker (2008)Poster presented at CNS 2008 -
Developing a protocol and experimental setup for using a humanoid robot to assist children with autism to develop visual perspective taking skills
Wood, Luke; Robins, Ben; Lakatos, Gabriella; Syrdal, Dag Sverre; Zaraki, Abolfazl; Dautenhahn, Kerstin (2019-03-26)Visual Perspective Taking (VPT) is the ability to see the world from another person's perspective, taking into account what they see and how they see it, drawing upon both spatial and social information. Children with ... -
Developing an agent-based simulation model of software evolution
Shallaw Mohammed; Doolan, Martina; Wernick, Paul; Wakelam, Ed (2018-04-01)Context In attempt to simulate the factors that affect the software evolution behaviour and possibly predict it, several simulation models have been developed recently. The current system dynamic (SD) simulation model of ... -
Developing child-robot interaction scenarios with a humanoid robot to assist children with autism in developing visual perspective taking skills
Wood, L.; Dautenhahn, K.; Robins, B.; Zaraki, A. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2017-12-14)Children with autism often find it difficult to understand that other people might have perspectives, viewpoints, beliefs and knowledge that are different from their own. One fundamental aspect of this difficulty is Visual ... -
Developing play scenarios for tactile interaction with a humanoid robot : A case study exploration with children with autism
Robins, B.; Dautenhahn, K. (2010)The work presented in this paper is part of our investigation in the ROBOSKIN project. The paper presents the completion of the first phase towards skin-based robot assisted play that included a literature review, exploratory ... -

Developing scenarios for robot assisted play
Robins, B.; Ferrari, E.; Dautenhahn, K. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2008)This paper describes the user-centred development of play scenarios for robot assisted play, as part of the IROMEC project that develops a novel robotic toy for children with special needs. The project investigates how ... -
Developing Software for Law Enforcement
Williams, Joseph; Stephens, Paul (2019-11-21)This presentation will discuss the development of the Open Source Internet Research Tool (OSIRT) Browser for law enforcement. The browser has been designed from the outset to aid law enforcement officials perform open ... -
The development and application of multimedia in learning: a survey of literature
Barker, T.; Jones, S.; Britton, C.; Messer, D.J. (University of Hertfordshire, 1997)Multimedia applications used in education and training are a relatively recent phenomenon. The development and use of multimedia has been influences by many social and economic factors related to the enormous growth of ... -
The development and evaluation of a software prototype for computer adaptive testing
Lilley, Mariana; Barker, T.; Britton, C. (2004)This paper presents ongoing research at the University of Hertfordshire on the use of computer-adaptive tests (CATs) in Higher Education. A software prototype based on Item Response Theory has been developed and is described ... -
Development of a framework for automated systematic testing of safety-critical embedded systems
Kandl, S.; Kirner, Raimund; Puschner, P. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2006)In this paper we introduce the development of a framework for testing safety-critical embedded systems based on the concepts of model-based testing. In model-based testing the test cases are derived from a model of the ... -
Development of a Gaussian Process – Feature Selection Model to Characterise (poly)dimethylsiloxane (Silastic®) Membrane Permeation
Sun, Yi; Hewitt, Mark; Wilkinson, Simon C; Davey, Neil; Adams, Roderick; Gullick, Darren; Moss, Gary (2020-07)Objectives The current study aims to determine the effect of physicochemical descriptor selection on models of polydimethylsiloxane permeation. Methods 2,942 descriptors were calculated for a dataset of 77 chemicals. Data ... -
Development of a Semi-Autonomous Robotic System to Assist Children with Autism in Developing Visual Perspective Taking Skills
Zaraki, Abolfazl; Wood, Luke; Robins, Ben; Dautenhahn, Kerstin (2018-11-06)Robot-assisted therapy has been successfully used to help children with Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC) develop their social skills, but very often with the robot being fully controlled remotely by an adult operator. ... -
The development of iHARP: a multiple instruction issue processor chip
Steven, G.B.; Adams, R.G.; Findlay, P.; Trainis, S.A. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 1991)During the last decade RISC ideas on processor architecture have become widely accepted. RISC architectures achieve significant performance advantages over CISC architectures by striving to execute one instruction per ... -
Developmental artificial neural networks for shape recognition: a model of the retina
Rust, A.G.; George, S.; Bolouri, H.; Adams, R.G. (University of Hertfordshire, 1996)There has been recent interest in mimicking the self-organising processes of biological development to design artificial neural networks.
