Journal Article
Qadir, O., Lenz, A., Tempesti, G., Timmis, J., Pipe, T., & Tyrrell, A. (2014). Hardware architecture of the protein processing associative memory and the effects of dimensionality and quantisation on performance. Genetic Programming and Evolvable Machines, 15(3), 245-274. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10710-014-9217-1

The Protein Processor Associative Memory (PPAM) is a novel hardware architecture for a distributed, decentralised, robust and scalable, bidirectional, hetero-associative memory, that can adapt online to changes in the training data. The PPAM uses the... Read More about Hardware architecture of the protein processing associative memory and the effects of dimensionality and quantisation on performance.

Parameters characterization and optimization of activated carbon (AC) cathodes for microbial fuel cell application (2014)
Journal Article
Santoro, C., Artyushkova, K., Babanova, S., Atanassov, P., Ieropoulos, I., Grattieri, M., …Schuler, A. J. (2014). Parameters characterization and optimization of activated carbon (AC) cathodes for microbial fuel cell application. Bioresource Technology, 163, 54-63. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.biortech.2014.03.091

Activated carbon (AC) is employed as a cost-effective catalyst for cathodic oxygen reduction in microbial fuel cells (MFC). The fabrication protocols of AC-based cathodes are conducted at different applied pressures (175-3500. psi) and treatment temp...

© 2013 Taylor & Francis. The standard referring-expression generation task involves creating stand-alone descriptions intended solely to distinguish a target object from its context. However, when an artificial system refers to objects in the cours... Read More about Task-based evaluation of context-sensitive referring expressions in human–robot dialogue.

The psychological well-being and appearance concerns of patients presenting with ptosis (2014)
Journal Article
