2D and 3D face analysis for ticketless rail travel (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Research is reported into the design, implementation and functionalities of a vision system that employs the human face as a biometric for enabling ticketless rail travel. The system has been developed to optimise performance in the relatively unstru... Read More about 2D and 3D face analysis for ticketless rail travel.

Multispectral contactless 3D handprint acquisition for identification (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We present and experimentally demonstrate the potential effectiveness of a photometric stereo based high resolution system for capturing 3D handprints using visible light sources. The sub-surface vascular structures are also enhanced through the use... Read More about Multispectral contactless 3D handprint acquisition for identification.

A framework for semi-supervised adaptive learning for activity recognition in healthcare applications (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

With the growing popularity of the Internet of Things and connected home products, potential healthcare applications in a smart-home context for assisted living are becoming increasingly apparent. However, challenges in performing real-time human act... Read More about A framework for semi-supervised adaptive learning for activity recognition in healthcare applications.

To preliminary test or not to preliminary test, that is the question (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Despite the consequences of violations to the assumptions of statistical tests, there is often neglect in published works to report on the assumptions of the tests performed. Preliminary testing the assumptions prior to preforming the test is done ro... Read More about To preliminary test or not to preliminary test, that is the question.

Biomimetic knee design to improve joint torque and life for bipedal robotics (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018. This paper details the design, construction, and performance analysis of a biologically inspired knee joint for use in bipedal robotics. The design copies the condylar surfaces of...

Teaching machines to ask questions (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We propose a novel neural network model that aims to generate diverse and human-like natural language questions. Our model not only directly captures the variability in possible questions by using a latent variable, but also generates certain types o... Read More about Teaching machines to ask questions.

Combining opinion pooling and evidential updating for multi-agent consensus (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The evidence available to a multi-agent system can take at least two distinct forms. There can be direct evidence from the environment resulting, for example, from sensor measurements or from running tests or experiments. In addition, agents also gai...

Further development of a variable camber morphing mechanism using the direct control airfoil geometry concept (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper reports on the design, manufacture and testing of an improved variable camber morphing wing mechanism following the study by Evans et al. (2016), who employed the so-called Direct Control Airfoil Geometry (DCAG) concept to actuate the trai...

Whisker-ratSLAM applied to 6D object identification and spatial localisation (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018. The problem of tactile object identification has a strong connection with the problem of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) in a physical 6-dimensional environment. Here...
