Home activity monitoring using low resolution infrared sensor array (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Tao, L., Smith, M., Volonakis, T., Tan, B., Jing, Y., Chetty, K., & Smith, M. (2018). Home activity monitoring using low resolution infrared sensor array

Abstract. Action monitoring in a home environment provides important information for health monitoring and may serve as input into a smart home environment. Visual analysis using cameras can recognise actions in a complex scene, such as someones livi... Read More about Home activity monitoring using low resolution infrared sensor array.

Effects of salt water on the ballistic protective performance of bullet-resistant body armour (2018)
Journal Article
Dodd, S., Malbon, C., Critchley, R., Lankester, C., O’Rourke, S., Corke, T., & Carr, D. (2019). Effects of salt water on the ballistic protective performance of bullet-resistant body armour. Police Journal, 92(3), 264-273. https://doi.org/10.1177/0032258X18809905

Bullet-resistant body armour is used by law enforcement agencies and military personnel worldwide, often in inclement weather. Some fibre types used in body armour perform poorly when wet, resulting in a reduced level of protection; this is why most...

Dual encoding for abstractive text summarization (2018)
Journal Article
Yao, K., Zhang, L., Du, D., Luo, T., Tao, L., & Wu, Y. (2020). Dual encoding for abstractive text summarization. IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics, 50(3), 985-996. https://doi.org/10.1109/TCYB.2018.2876317

Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) based sequence-to-sequence attentional models have proven effective in abstractive text summarization. In this paper, we model abstractive text summarization using a dual encoding model. Different from the previous work... Read More about Dual encoding for abstractive text summarization.
