Photometric stereo for three-dimensional leaf venation extraction (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 Elsevier B.V. Leaf venation extraction studies have been strongly discouraged by considerable challenges posed by venation architectures that are complex, diverse and subtle. Additionally, unpredictable local leaf curvatures, undesirable ambie... Read More about Photometric stereo for three-dimensional leaf venation extraction.

Exposure to childhood adversity and deficits in emotion recognition: results from a large, population-based sample (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 Association for Child and Adolescent Mental Health. Background: Emotion recognition skills are essential for social communication. Deficits in these skills have been implicated in mental disorders. Prior studies of clinical and high-risk sampl...

Gradient-based particle filter algorithm for an ARX model with nonlinear communication output (2018)
Journal Article

A stochastic gradient (SG)-based particle filter (SG-PF) algorithm is developed for an ARX model with nonlinear communication output in this paper. This ARX model consists of two submodels, one is a linear ARX model and the other is a nonlinear outpu...

Complementary landmarks facilitate ant navigation (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 The Authors Visual landmarks are important navigational aids to many animals, and when more than one is available their juxtaposition can convey valuable new information to a navigator about progress toward a goal, depending on the landmarks’...

Social robots for engagement in rehabilitative therapies: Design implications from a study with therapists (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In this paper we present the results of a qualitative study with therapists to inform social robotics and human robot interaction (HRI) for engagement in rehabilitative therapies. Our results add to growing evidence that socially assistive robots (SA... Read More about Social robots for engagement in rehabilitative therapies: Design implications from a study with therapists.

Automated monitoring of dairy cow body condition, mobility and weight using a single 3D video capture device (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 Here we propose a low-cost automated system for the unobtrusive and continuous welfare monitoring of dairy cattle on the farm. We argue that effective and regular monitoring of multiple condition traits is not currently practicable and go on t...

Effect of pH on the activity of platinum group metal-free catalysts in oxygen reduction reaction (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 American Chemical Society. The impact of the electrolyte's pH on the catalytic activity of platinum group metal-free (PGM-free) catalysts toward the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) was studied. The results indicate that the ORR mechanism is de... Read More about Effect of pH on the activity of platinum group metal-free catalysts in oxygen reduction reaction.

Enhancement of microbial fuel cell performance by introducing a nano-composite cathode catalyst (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 The Authors Iron aminoantipyrine (Fe-AAPyr), graphene nanosheets (GNSs) derived catalysts and their physical mixture Fe-AAPyr-GNS were synthesized and investigated as cathode catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) with the activated car...
