A multi-faceted formative assessment approach: better recognising the learning needs of students
(2010)Students are increasingly subject to a series of learning pressures that prevent effective engagement in assessment. Thus, the aim of this study was to create a multi-faceted formative assessment approach that better enabled ... -
Multi-fluorescence high-resolution episcopic microscopy (MF-HREM) for three dimensional imaging of adult murine organs
(2021-05-26)Three-dimensional microscopy of large biological samples (greater than 0.5 cm^3) is transforming biological research. Many existing techniques require trade-offs between image resolution, sample size and method complexity. ... -
Multi-frequency Polarization Properties of Blazars
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2005)We have obtained total and polarized intensity images of 15 AGNs with the VLBA at 7 mm at 17 epochs, accompanied at many epochs by nearly simultaneous measurements of polarization at 1.35/0.85 mm and at optical wavelengths. ... -
A Multi-Level Machine Learning System for Attention-Based Object Recognition
(2011-09-06)This thesis develops a trainable object-recognition algorithm. This algorithm represents objects using their salient features. The algorithm applies an attention mechanism to speed up feature detection. A trainable ... -
A multi-level monitoring framework for stream-based coordination programs
(2012)Stream-based Coordination is a promising approach to execute programs on parallel hardware such as multi-core systems. It allows to reuse sequential code at component level and to extend such code with concurrency-handling ... -
Multi-level responses to behavioural issues in schools
(David Fulton Publishing Ltd., 2004)The challenges posed by the behaviour of some pupils can only be properly addressed if support is extended beyond the classroom. Linking theory and practice, this book outlines a range of assessment and intervention ... -
Multi-Link Failure Effects on MPLS Resilient Fast-Reroute Network Architectures
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2021-06-03)MPLS has been in the forefront of high-speed Wide Area Networks (WANs), for almost two decades [1, 12]. The performance advantages in implementing Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) are mainly its superior speed based ... -
Multi-marker longitudinal algorithms incorporating HE4 and CA125 in ovarian cancer screening of postmenopausal women
(2020-07)Longitudinal CA125 algorithms are the current basis of ovarian cancer screening. We report on longitudinal algorithms incorporating multiple markers. In the multimodal arm of United Kingdom Collaborative Trial of Ovarian ... -
A Multi-Mission Catalogue of Ultraluminous X-ray Source Candidates
(2022-01-01)We present a new, multi-mission catalogue of ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) candidates, based on recent data releases from each of the XMM-Newton, Swift and Chandra observatories (the 4XMM-DR10, 2SXPS and CSC2 catalogues, ... -
Multi-object and long-slit spectroscopy of very low mass brown dwarfs in the Orion Nebular Cluster
(2014)We present the results of an H-and K-band multi-object and long-slit spectroscopic survey of substellar mass candidates in the outer regions of the Orion Nebula Cluster. The spectra were obtained using MOIRCS on the 8.2m ... -
A multi-objective approach to optimize the weight and stress of the locking plates using finite element modeling
(2021-10-26)This paper aims to identify an optimum bone fracture stabilizer. For this purpose, three design variables including the ratio of the screw diameter to the plate width at three levels, the ratio of the plate thickness to ... -
Multi-objective optimisation for minimum quantity lubrication assisted milling process based on hybrid response surface methodology and multi-objective genetic algorithm
(2019-04-01)Parametric modelling and optimisation play an important role in choosing the best or optimal cutting conditions and parameters during machining to achieve the desirable results. However, analysis of optimisation of minimum ... -
A Multi-Parameter Empirical Model For Mesophilic Anaerobic Digestion
(2017-01-04)Anaerobic digestion, which is the process by which bacteria breakdown organic matter to produce biogas (renewable energy source) and digestate (biofertiliser) in the absence of oxygen, proves to be the ideal concept not ... -
A Multi-Perspective Evaluation of a Service Robot for Seniors: the Voice of Different Stakeholders
(2017-07-31)Purpose: The potential of service robots for seniors is given increasing attention as the ageing population in Western countries will continue to grow as well as the demand for home care. In order to capture the experience ... -
A multi-perspective view on human - automation interactions in Aviation
(Springer Nature, 2015)Control mechanisms for the evolving potential of autonomous systems are not yet sufficiently established. However, there is a need for control to be allocated throughout organisational and institutional levels of society ... -
A Multi-planar Approach to Encoding Story Worlds for Dynamic Narrative Generation
(Springer Nature, 2021-08-27)Tabletop Role-Playing Games transport the player to a fantastical fictional world. This world is inhabited by characters, players and objects. Prior to the commencement of play, the Dungeon Master prepares not only the ... -
Multi-PON access network using a coarse AWG for smooth migration from TDM to WDM PON
(2007)An interoperable access network architecture based on a coarse array waveguide grating (AWG) is described, displaying dynamic wavelength assignment to manage the network load across multiple PONs. The multi-PON architecture ... -
Multi-PON access/metro network using a coarse-WDM AWG router
