Model fitting for small skin permeability data sets: hyperparameter optimisation in Gaussian Process Regression
(2018-02-14)Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate how to improve predictions from Gaussian Process models by optimising the model hyperparameters. Methods Optimisation methods, including Grid Search, Conjugate Gradient, ... -
A model for handling missing items on two depression rating scales
(2001)A problem in clinical trials for antidepressants is that patient rating scales are not always completed properly. If one or more items are missing, a patient evaluation may be prevented from contributing towards an efficacy ... -
A model for the infrared continuum spectrum of NGC 1068
(1995)We present a model for the nuclear infrared (IR) continuum spectrum of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 1068. The torus emission is modelled in terms of the tapered disc models of Efstathiou & Rowan-Robinson, which give a good fit ... -
A Model for the Infrared Polarization of NGC 1068
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1996)We present a method for calculating the polarization due to absorption and emission by aligned grains distributed in a disk or a torus. The temperature distribution in the torus is calculated self-consistently with the ... -
A model for unsteady sediment transport in degrading alluvial channels
(2010)The collection of data for unsteady/non-uniform sediment transport rates in a river below a reservoir, which arrests sediment from upstream, is very difficult. The establishment of a model for the determination of these ... -
A model linking immediate serial recall, the Hebb repetition effect and the learning of phonological word forms
(2009)We briefly review the considerable evidence for a common ordering mechanism underlying both immediate serial recall (ISR) tasks (e.g. digit span, non-word repetition) and the learning of phonological word forms. In addition, ... -
Model of Coordination Flow in Remote Collaborative Interaction
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2016-09-26)We present an information-theoretic approach for modelling coordination in human-human interaction and measuring coordination flows in a remote collaborative tracking task. Building on Shannon's mutual information, ... -
A Model of the Local WD Population
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2005)We present a model of the solar neighbourhood (d<100 pc) white dwarf (WD) population and show its distribution in e®ective temperature and mass. The WDs are created by the death-rate of a population model matching the local ... -
Model Spectra of Hot Subdwarfs for the Gaia Mission
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2008)The Gaia mission will provide an unprecedented 3D view of our galaxy, it will obtain astrometric, photometric and spectrographic data for roughly one billion stars. We are particularly interested in the treasure chest of ... -
A model to embed clinical simulation training during ambulance shift work
(2013-05)Paramedic education is now commonly delivered by educational institutions, but there is still a continuous need to ensure the competency of experienced staff and to help with orientation to newly adopted pieces of equipment, ... -
A model Type Theory for Formalizing Trusted Communications
(2012-03-01)This paper introduces a multi-modal polymorphic typetheory to model epistemic processes characterized by trust, defined as a second-order relation affecting the communication process between sources and a receiver. In this ... -

Model-driven design and organic computing - combinable strategies?
(IEEE COMPUTER SOC, 2009)This position paper discusses the possibility to combine organic computing and model-driven design. -
Modeling Affect-Based Relationships and Social Allostasis as Mechanisms for Adaptation in Social Groups
(2021-01-29)Artificial social agents are becoming increasingly present in the real world. For these agents, their success is tied to their ability to remain truly autonomous—to appropriately adapt their decisions and behaviours across ... -
Modeling an ontology on accessible evacuation routes for emergencies
(2014-11-15)Providing alert communication in emergency situations is vital to reduce the number of victims. However, this is a challenging goal for researchers and professionals due to the diverse pool of prospective users, e.g. people ... -
Modeling and Calibration of Gaia, Hipparcos, and Tycho-2 astrometric data for the detection of dark companions
(2024-03-28)Hidden within the Gaia satellite’s multiple data releases lies a valuable cache of dark companions. To facilitate the efficient and reliable detection of these companions via combined analyses involving the Gaia, Hipparcos, ... -
Modeling and Control of a UPFC System Using Pole-Placement and Hinf Robust Control Techniques
(2018-04-01)FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission Systems) technology has now been accepted as a potential solution to the stability problem and load flow. The Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) is considered to be the most powerful and ... -
Modeling and control of nonlinear systems using soft computing techniques
(2007-06)This work is an attempt to illustrate the utility and effectiveness of soft computing approaches in handling the modeling and control of complex systems. Soft computing research is concerned with the integration of artificial ...
