Citizen-led emissions reduction: Enhancing enjoyment and understanding for diverse citizen engagement with air pollution and climate change decision making (2024)
Journal Article

Diverse citizens need to be involved in net zero transitions to ensure policy interventions do not entrench inequalities for people from minoritised or disenfranchised groups and ensure public engagement with rapid social changes. This paper illustra... Read More about Citizen-led emissions reduction: Enhancing enjoyment and understanding for diverse citizen engagement with air pollution and climate change decision making.

Optimisation of small-scale aquaponics systems using artificial intelligence and the IoT: Current status, challenges, and opportunities (2024)
Journal Article

Environment changes, water scarcity, soil depletion, and urbanisation are making it harder to produce food using traditional methods in various regions and countries. Aquaponics is emerging as a sustainable food production system that produces fish a...

Convolutional neural network ensemble learning for hyperspectral imaging-based blackberry fruit ripeness detection in uncontrolled farm environment (2024)
Journal Article

Fruit ripeness estimation models have for decades depended on spectral index features or colour-based features, such as mean, standard deviation, skewness, colour moments, and/or histograms for learning traits of fruit ripeness. Recently, few studies... Read More about Convolutional neural network ensemble learning for hyperspectral imaging-based blackberry fruit ripeness detection in uncontrolled farm environment.

Variable autonomy through responsible robotics: Design guidelines and research agenda (2024)
Journal Article

Physically embodied artificial agents, or robots, are being incorporated into various practical and social contexts, from self-driving cars for personal transportation to assistive robotics in social care. To enable these systems to better perform un... Read More about Variable autonomy through responsible robotics: Design guidelines and research agenda.

Tactile-based grasping stability prediction based on human grasp demonstration for robot manipulation (2024)
Journal Article

To minimize irrelevant and redundant information in tactile data and harness the dexterity of human hands. In this paper, we introduce a novel binary classification network with normalized differential convolution (NDConv) layers. Our method leverage...

Development of analytical model for bonding of CFRP rod in concrete subjected to cyclic loads (2024)
Journal Article

Recent material science advances have resulted in the use of High-Performance Concrete (HPC) and Ultra-High-Performance Concrete (UHPC) in superstructures, which were chosen for their superior strength. However, under cyclic loads, these materials fr... Read More about Development of analytical model for bonding of CFRP rod in concrete subjected to cyclic loads.

Seismic performance of structure equipped with a new rubber bracing damper system (2024)
Journal Article

Nowadays, vibration energy absorption devices are widely implemented in many buildings subjected to severe vibration due to natural hazards, such as earthquakes, strong winds, and typhoons. Recently, viscous dampers have been commonly used in many st... Read More about Seismic performance of structure equipped with a new rubber bracing damper system.

Estimating water storage from images (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper introduces a novel approach to estimate domestic water storage within households by leveraging the classical computer vision technique of object detection.
