ResNet18 performance: Impact of network depth and image resolution on image classification (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This study explores aspects of using ResNet18 for the classification of biomedical images, using the 2D medical images from the MedMNIST library that is widely used for benchmarking. The number of layers within the ResNet18 was studied. The typically... Read More about ResNet18 performance: Impact of network depth and image resolution on image classification.

Examining neural networks through architectural variation analysis for image classification (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper presents a method for examining neural networks in image classification through architectural variation analysis. Small-scale experiments generate initial insights, and the configurations are further tested on entire datasets. The newly pr...

Enhancing reflective learning experiences in museums through interactive installations (2018)
Journal Article

In this study we examine the effect that several technological affordances have upon the experiences of children while visiting a museum, focusing upon engagement, discussion and reflection. The museum is the Baba Nyonya Heritage Museum in Malacca, M... Read More about Enhancing reflective learning experiences in museums through interactive installations.

Towards computation of novel ideas from corpora of scientific text (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2015. In this work we present a method for the computation of novel ‘ideas’ from corpora of scientific text. The system functions by first detecting concept noun-phrases within the titles and abstracts... Read More about Towards computation of novel ideas from corpora of scientific text.

On the Turing Completeness of the Semantic Web (2014)
Journal Article

© 2014, Springer Science+Business Media New York. The evidenced fact that “Linking is as powerful as computing” in a dynamic web context has lead to evaluating Turing completeness for hypertext systems based on their linking model. The same evaluatio... Read More about On the Turing Completeness of the Semantic Web.

The ethical and social implications of personalization technologies for e-learning (2014)
Journal Article

Personalization in information systems can be considered beneficial but also ethically and socially harmful. Like many other technologies, the uptake of personalization has been rapid, with inadequate consideration given to its effects. Personalizati...

Translation techniques in cross-language information retrieval (2012)
Journal Article

Cross-language information retrieval (CLIR) is an active sub-domain of information retrieval (IR). Like IR, CLIR is centered on the search for documents and for information contained within those documents. Unlike IR, CLIR must reconcile queries and...

HCI and the Web (2012)
Book Chapter

Web browsers have no inherent way of presenting the structure and interrelationships of data of any sort. For example, there is no way to visualize even the simple interrelationships of web documents, such as “Where can I go from here?” or “Which doc... Read More about HCI and the Web.

Generating unambiguous URL clusters from web search (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper reports on the generation of unambiguous clusters of from clickthrough data from the MSN search query log (the RFP 2006 dataset). Selections (clickthroughs) by a user from a single query can be assumed to have some semantic relevance, and... Read More about Generating unambiguous URL clusters from web search.

Evaluating Learning Style Personalization in Adaptive Systems: Quantitative Methods and Approaches (2009)
Journal Article

It is a widely held assumption that learning style is a useful model for quantifying user characteristics for effective personalized learning. We set out to challenge this assumption by discussing the current state of the art in relation to quantitat...

Cultural artefacts in education: Analysis, ontologies and implementation (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Adaptive web technologies are often used in distance learning scenarios with little regard for learners’ cultural background. The CAE questionnaire determines the cultural artefacts that influence a learners behaviour within an educational environmen...

The global perpetual dictionary of everything (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Knowledge organising systems aim to classify, store, organise and structure data for the purposes of retrieval. They usually rely on algorithms designed to automate these functions. However a largely untapped but highly accurate resource which can co... Read More about The global perpetual dictionary of everything.

Disambiguation and unknown term translation in cross language information retrieval (2007)
Book Chapter

In this paper we present a report on our participation in the CLEF 2007 Chinese-English ad hoc bilingual track. We discuss a disambiguation strategy which employs a modified co-occurrence model to determine the most appropriate translation for a give...

Adaptive hypermedia system interoperability: A 'real world' evaluation (2007)
Journal Article

Adaptive Hypermedia (AH) authoring is widely acknowledged to be complex and time consuming, yet this vital process is rarely evaluated. Recent research has approached the authoring problem by ensuring that previously created materials can be converte...

Wang cube simulator for self-assembly (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Self-assembly is a process by which simple objects autonomously assemble into complex system. Self-assembly process is ubiquitous in nature of the world. It may occur in levels ranging from nanoscale to astronomical scale. Self-assembly is an importa... Read More about Wang cube simulator for self-assembly.

Evaluation of interoperability of adaptive hypermedia systems: Testing the MOT to WHURLE conversion in a classroom setting (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The creation process of adaptive hypermedia is rarely evaluated. Moreover, conversion between different adaptive hypermedia systems has barely been proposed, yet alone tested in realistic settings. This paper presents the evaluation of the interopera... Read More about Evaluation of interoperability of adaptive hypermedia systems: Testing the MOT to WHURLE conversion in a classroom setting.

'Authoring once, delivering many': Creating reusable adaptive courseware (2005)
Journal Article

This paper addresses the issue of creating reusable adaptive courseware from the point of view of the author (teacher or instructor). We illustrate the idea of reusability under the motto "Authoring Once, Delivering Many" by showing the conversion pr...
