Towards evolving spiking networks with memristive synapses (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper presents a spiking neuro-evolutionary system which implements memristors as neuromodulatory connections, ie whose weights can vary during a trial. The evolutionary design process exploits parameter self-adaptation and a constructionist app... Read More about Towards evolving spiking networks with memristive synapses.

Critical realism and realist pragmatism in mixed methods: Problematics of event identity and abductive inference (evolving paradigms in mixed methods research) - Paper kindly presented on Dr Lipscomb's behalf (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Whilst mixed method research is not universally accepted as an appropriate research choice (and in certain situations it is, self evidently, an inappropriate choice), mixed inquiry is now widely embedded in and accepted by many disciplines. Indeed, i...

Group dynamics and record signals in the ant Temnothorax albipennis (2011)
Journal Article

Many purely physical complex systems, in which there are both stochasticity and local interactions between the components, exhibit record dynamics. The temporal statistics of record dynamics is a Poisson process operating on a logarithmic rather than... Read More about Group dynamics and record signals in the ant Temnothorax albipennis.

They are cellular automaton analogous of localizations or quasi-loca... Read More about Cellular automaton supercolliders.

Motivational influences of monetary reward and performance feedback on dual-target search performance (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Optimizing employee performance is of general importance, but it is particularly pertinent for socially critical jobs that are especially error prone. For example, it is vital to understand how visual search performance can be maximized for radiologi...
