The transcription factor PPARα is overexpressed and is associated with a favourable prognosis in IDH-wildtype primary glioblastoma (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd Aims: PPARα agonists are in current clinical use as hypolipidaemic agents and show significant antineoplastic effects in human glioblastoma models. To date however, the expression of PPARα in large-scale glioblastoma da...

Locomotion traits of dairy cows from overhead three-dimensional video (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We investigate two locomotion traits in dairy cows from overhead 3D video to observe lameness trends. Detecting lameness -particularly at an early stage- is important in order to allow early treatment which maximizes detection benefits. The proposed...

Advancing whisker based navigation through the implementation of bio-inspired whisking strategies (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

An active whisking tactile sensor array has been
successfully integrated with the RatSLAM algorithm and
demonstrated as capable of reducing error in pose estimates of a mobile robot. A new metric for evaluating the performance of RatSLAM is introdu... Read More about Advancing whisker based navigation through the implementation of bio-inspired whisking strategies.

The techno-economic feasibility of providing solar photovoltaic backup power (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2016 IEEE. The availability of energy is a key factor affecting sustainable development. Consumers losing electricity supply due to constraints on electrical power utilities is very common in developing countries. In this paper, the technical and e...

Sub-toxic concentrations of volatile organic compounds inhibit extracellular respiration of Escherichia coli cells grown in anodic bioelectrochemical systems (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 Elsevier B.V. Low-cost and rapid detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is important for the control of water quality of used water and protection of downstream used water treatment processes. In this work, the effect of sub-toxic conc...

Multi degree-of-freedom successive stiffness increment approach for high stiffness haptic interaction (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In haptic interaction, stability and the object’s hardness perception are of great significance. Although numerous studies have been done for stable haptic interaction, however, most of them sacrifice the actual displayed stiffness as a cost of stabi...

Early and non-intrusive lameness detection in dairy cows using 3-dimensional video (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 IAgrE Lameness is a major issue in dairy herds and its early and automated detection offers animal welfare benefits together with potentially high commercial savings for farmers. Current advancements in automated detection have not achieved a... Read More about Early and non-intrusive lameness detection in dairy cows using 3-dimensional video.

DS-KCF: a real-time tracker for RGB-D data (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 The Author(s) We propose an RGB-D single-object tracker, built upon the extremely fast RGB-only KCF tracker that is able to exploit depth information to handle scale changes, occlusions, and shape changes. Despite the computational demands of... Read More about DS-KCF: a real-time tracker for RGB-D data.

Electricity and catholyte production from ceramic MFCs treating urine (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 The Authors The use of ceramics as low cost membrane materials for Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) has gained increasing interest, due to improved performance levels in terms of power and catholyte production. The catholyte production in ceramic M... Read More about Electricity and catholyte production from ceramic MFCs treating urine.
