Cameras as cultural probes in requirements gathering - Exploring their potential in supporting the design of assistive technology (2011)
Journal Article
Caleb-Solly, P., Flind, A., & Vargheese, J. P. (2011). Cameras as cultural probes in requirements gathering - Exploring their potential in supporting the design of assistive technology. https://doi.org/10.1109/CBMS.2011.5999158

A pre-requisite for a human-centred design approach to technology development is gaining an intimate understanding of not only the people for whom the technology is being designed, but also the contexts within which they will be using it. This paper... Read More about Cameras as cultural probes in requirements gathering - Exploring their potential in supporting the design of assistive technology.

User-centric image segmentation using an interactive parameter adaptation tool (2010)
Journal Article
Pauplin, O., Caleb-Solly, P., & Smith, J. (2010). User-centric image segmentation using an interactive parameter adaptation tool. Pattern Recognition, 43(2), 519-529. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.patcog.2009.03.007

Creating successful machine vision systems often begins a process of developing customised reliable image segmentation algorithms for the detection, and possibly categorisation of regions of interest within images. This can require significant invest... Read More about User-centric image segmentation using an interactive parameter adaptation tool.

Visualisation and categorisation of respiratory mechanism using self organising maps (2000)
Journal Article
Black, A. M., Caleb, P., Steuer, M., Caleb-Solly, P., Drummond, G. B., & Black, A. M. S. (2000). Visualisation and categorisation of respiratory mechanism using self organising maps. IEE Proceedings Science Measurement and Technology, 147(6), 339-344. https://doi.org/10.1049/ip-smt%3A20000856

In post-operative patients it is sometimes necessary to push morphine-like analgesics to their limits for pain relief. Unfortunately, this can sometimes bring a significant risk of disrupting the control of breathing, and of precipitating life-threat...

Self organising maps for the investigation of clinical data: A case study (1998)
Journal Article
Sharpe, P. K., & Caleb-Solly, P. (1998). Self organising maps for the investigation of clinical data: A case study. Neural Computing and Applications, 7(1), 65-70. https://doi.org/10.1007/BF01413710

The clinical process often involves comparisons of how one set of measurements is related to previous, similar, data and the use of this information to take decisions concerning possible courses of action, often with insufficient data to make meaning...

A preliminary investigation into the analysis of electromyographic activity using a system of multiple neural networks (1995)
Journal Article
Caleb, P., Caleb-Solly, P., Sharpe, P. K., & Jones, R. (1995). A preliminary investigation into the analysis of electromyographic activity using a system of multiple neural networks. Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence, 934 LNAI, 439-440. https://doi.org/10.1007/3-540-60025-6_177

Electromyography (EMG) is widely used by clinicians and therapists for diagnosis of certain neuromuscular disorders. This paper describes a preliminary examination of the application of multiple neural networks in the analysis of surface electromyogr...
