Does Empowerment Maximisation Allow for Enactive Artificial Agents?
Guckelsberger, Christian; Salge, Christoph (MIT Press, 2016-07-01)The enactive AI framework wants to overcome the sense-making limitations of embodied AI by drawing on the bio-systemic foundations of enactive cognitive science. While embodied AI tries to ground meaning in sensorimotor ... -
Does Expression of Grounded Affect in a Hexapod Robot Elicit More Prosocial Responses?
Hickton, Luke; Lewis, Matthew; Koay, Kheng; Cañamero, Lola (EPSRC UK-RAS Network, 2020-05-07)We consider how non-humanoid robots can communicate their affective state via bodily forms of communication, and the extent to which this can influence human response. We propose a simple model of grounded affect and kinesic ... -
“Does it work?” A framework to evaluate the effectiveness of a robotic toy for children with special needs
Ferrari, E.; Robins, B.; Dautenhahn, K. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2010)To evaluate the performance of a social robot, both the aspects of safety and technical efficiency as well as the effectiveness of the interaction with the robot from the users' points of view need to be considered. The ... -
Does the XP environment meet the motivational needs of the software developer An empirical study
Beecham, S.; Sharp, H.; Baddoo, N.; Hall, T.; Robinson, H. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2007)This paper examines how XP practice meets the motivational needs of software developers. Interactions with peers have been identified by others as one potential area of (de)motivation but little detail is known. The nature ... -
'Doing the right thing wrong' : Personality and tolerance to uncomfortable robot approaches
Syrdal, D.S.; Dautenhahn, K.; Woods, S.; Walters, M.L.; Koay, K.L. (2006) -
A domain-specific embedded language for programming parallel architectures
McGuiness, Jason; Egan, Colin (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2013-09)The authors' goal in this paper has been to define a minimal and orthogonal DSEL (Domain-Specific Embedded Language) that would add parallelism to an imperative language. It will be demonstrated that this DSEL will guarantee ... -
Don't Believe Everything You Hear : Preserving Relevant Information by Discarding Social Information
Salge, Christoph; Polani, D. (MIT Press, 2014)Integrating information gained by observing others via Social Bayesian Learning can be beneficial for an agent’s performance, but can also enable population wide information cascades that perpetuate false beliefs through ... -
The dual role of calcium in synaptic plasticity at the motor endplate
Joseph, S. R. H.; Steuber, Volker; Willshaw, D. J. (PLENUM PRESS DIV PLENUM PUBLISHING CORP, 1997)Focal blockade of postsynaptic acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) in a small region of the neuromuscular junction may cause long-term synapse elimination at that site. Blockade of the whole junction does not cause synapse ... -
Dual-polarization multi-band optical OFDM transmission and transceiver limitations for up to 500 Gb/s uncompensated long-haul links
Giacoumidis, Elias; Abdel-karim Jarajreh, Mutsam; Sygletos, Stylianos; Thai Le, Son; Farjady, Farsheed; Tsokanos, Athanasios; Hamié, Ali; Pincemin, Erwan; Jaouën, Yves; D Ellis, Andrew; Doran, NJ (2014-05-05)A number of critical issues for dual-polarization single- and multi-band optical orthogonal-frequency division multiplexing (DP-SB/MB-OFDM) signals are analyzed in dispersion compensation fiber (DCF)-free long-haul links. ... -
Dynamic and scalable storage management architecture for Grid Oriented Storage devices
Deng, Yuhui; Wang, Frank; Helian, Na; Wu, Sining; Liao, Chenhan (2008)Most of currently deployed Grid systems employ hierarchical or centralized approaches to simplify system management. However, the approaches cannot satisfy the requirements of complex Grid applications which involve hundreds ... -
Dynamic bandwidth allocation for OFDMA-PONs using Hidden Markov Model
Kourtessis, Pandelis; Senior, John (2017-10-25)Abstract: Accurate prediction of traffic conditions on OFDMA-PONs is important because of its vital role in network resource management and efficient bandwidth allocation. Given the dynamic and stochastic nature of network ... -
Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation in Heterogeneous OFDMA-PONs Featuring Intelligent LTE-A Traffic Queuing
Lim, Wansu; Kourtessis, Pandelis; Kanonakis, Konstantinos; Milosavljevic, Milos; Tomkos, Ioannis; Senior, J.M. (2014-05-15)A heterogeneous, optical/wireless dynamic bandwidth allocation framework is presented, exhibiting intelligent traffic queuing for practically controlling the quality-of-service (QoS) of mobile traffic, backhauled via ... -
Dynamic bandwidth assignment MAC protocol for differentiated services over GPON
Jiang, J.; Handley, M.R.; Senior, J.M. (2006)A dynamic bandwidth assignment MAC protocol is proposed to facilitate the upstream channel resource sharing and to support differentiated services over GPON. A new procedure for bandwidth reporting and a novel balance ... -
A Dynamic Game with Adaptive Strategies For IEEE 802.15.4 and IoT
Abegunde, Jacob; Xiao, Hannan; Spring, William (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2016-08-26)The problem of selfishness and misbehaviour in wireless networks is well known, as are the associated solutions that have been proposed for it in IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) and Wireless Sensory Network ... -
Dynamic Hierarchical Structure Optimisation for Cloud Computing Job Scheduling
Lane, Peter; Helian, Na; Bodla, Muhammad Haad; Zheng, Minghua; Moggridge, Paul (Springer Nature, 2022-04-15)The performance of cloud computing depends in part on job-scheduling algorithms, but also on the connection structure. Previous work on this structure has mostly looked at fixed and static connections. However, we argue ... -
