Environmental auditing of a packaging system for redesign: A case study exploration (2014)
Journal Article
Matthews, J., Parr, C., Araoye, O., & McManus, M. (2014). Environmental auditing of a packaging system for redesign: A case study exploration. https://doi.org/10.7763/JOCET.2014.V2.138

Within the United Kingdom a significant portion of the energy consumed each year is done so through industry. It is therefore desirable to take measures that reduce this consumption. A process common to all manufacturing sectors is that of packaging,... Read More about Environmental auditing of a packaging system for redesign: A case study exploration.

Feature extraction and selection for emotion recognition from EEG (2014)
Journal Article
Jenke, R., Peer, A., & Buss, M. (2014). Feature extraction and selection for emotion recognition from EEG. IEEE Transactions on Affective Computing, 5(3), 327-339. https://doi.org/10.1109/TAFFC.2014.2339834

© 2014 IEEE. Emotion recognition from EEG signals allows the direct assessment of the 'inner' state of a user, which is considered an important factor in human-machine-interaction. Many methods for feature extraction have been studied and the selecti... Read More about Feature extraction and selection for emotion recognition from EEG.
