Graph based gene/protein prediction and clustering over uncertain medical databases. (2015)
Journal Article
BANO, S. and RAO, K.R. 2015. Graph based gene/protein prediction and clustering over uncertain medical databases. Journal of theoretical and applied information technology [online], 82(3), pages 347-352. Available from: https://www.jatit.org/volumes/Vol82No3/2Vol82No3.pdf

Clustering over protein or gene data is now a popular issue in biomedical databases. In general, large sets of gene tags are clustered using high computation techniques over gene or protein distributed data. Most of the traditional clustering techniq...

Fuzzy ethics: or how I learned to stop worrying and love the bot. (2015)
Journal Article
HERON, M.J. and BELFORD, P. 2015. Fuzzy ethics: or how I learned to stop worrying and love the bot. ACM SIGCAS computers and society [online], 45(4), pages 4-6. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1145/2856428.2856429

The recent death of a Volkswagen worker at the hand of a factory robot has resulted in a number of editorials and opinion pieces discussing moral responsibility and robots. In this short response piece we outline some of the wider context of this dis... Read More about Fuzzy ethics: or how I learned to stop worrying and love the bot..

Visualisation techniques to support public interpretation of future climate change and land-use choices: a case study from N-E Scotland. (2015)
Journal Article
WANG, C., MILLER, D., BROWN, I., JIANG, Y. and CASTELLAZZI, M. 2015. Visualisation techniques to support public interpretation of future climate change and land-use choices: a case study from N-E Scotland. International journal of digital earth [online], 9(6), pages 586-605. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1080/17538947.2015.1111949

Mitigating and adapting to climate change includes a requirement to evaluate the role of future land uses in delivering robust integrated responses that are sensitive to local landscape contexts. In practice, this emphasises the need for community en...

An alternative design for electrostatically accelerated ion beam fusion. (2015)
Journal Article
MACLEOD, C. and GERRARD, C.E. 2015. An alternative design for electrostatically accelerated ion beam fusion. Journal of the British Interplanetary Society [online], 68, pages 336-341. Available from: http://www.jbis.org.uk/paper.php?p=2015.68.336

Inertial Electrostatic Confinement (IEC) is an alternative approach to nuclear fusion which uses electrostatically accelerated ions instead of hot plasmas. The best known device that utilises the principle is the Farnsworth-Hirsch Fusor. It has been... Read More about An alternative design for electrostatically accelerated ion beam fusion..

An energy-efficient full-duplex MAC protocol for distributed wireless networks. (2015)
Journal Article
AL-KADRI, M.O., AIJAZ, A. and NALLANATHAN, A. 2016. An energy-efficient full-duplex MAC protocol for distributed wireless networks. IEEE wireless communications letters [online], 5(1), pages 44-47. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1109/lwc.2015.2492548

In this letter, we present an energy-efficient medium access control (MAC) protocol for distributed full-duplex (FD) wireless network, termed as energy-FDM. The key aspects of the energy-FDM include energy-efficiency, coexistence of distinct types of... Read More about An energy-efficient full-duplex MAC protocol for distributed wireless networks..

Engaging stakeholders during late stage security design with assumption personas. (2015)
Journal Article
FAILY, S. 2015. Engaging stakeholders during late stage security design with assumption personas. Information and computer security [online], 23(4), pages 435-446. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1108/ICS-10-2014-0066

This paper aims to present an approach where assumption personas are used to engage stakeholders in the elicitation and specification of security requirements at a late stage of a system's design. The author has devised an approach for developing ass... Read More about Engaging stakeholders during late stage security design with assumption personas..

Online learning the consensus of multiple correspondences between sets. (2015)
Journal Article
MORENO-GARCÍA, C.F. and SERRATOSA, F. 2015. Online learning the consensus of multiple correspondences between sets. Knowledge-based systems [online], 90, pages 49-57. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.knosys.2015.09.034

When several subjects solve the assignment problem of two sets, differences on the correspondences computed by these subjects may occur. These differences appear due to several factors. For example, one of the subjects may give more importance to som... Read More about Online learning the consensus of multiple correspondences between sets..

Musings on misconduct: a practitioner reflection on the ethical investigation of plagiarism within programming modules. (2015)
Journal Article
HERON, M.J. and BELFORD, P. 2015. Musings on misconduct: a practitioner reflection on the ethical investigation of plagiarism within programming modules. ACM SIGCAS computers and society [online], 45(3), pages 438-444. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1145/2874239.2874304

Tools for algorithmically detecting plagiarism have become very popular, but none of these tools offers an effective and reliable way to identify plagiarism within academic software development. As a result, the identification of plagiarism within pr... Read More about Musings on misconduct: a practitioner reflection on the ethical investigation of plagiarism within programming modules..

A fine-grained Random Forests using class decomposition: an application to medical diagnosis. (2015)
Journal Article
ELYAN, E. and GABER, M.M. 2015. A fine-grained Random Forests using class decomposition: an application to medical diagnosis. Neural computing and applications [online], 27(8), pages 2279-2288. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1007/s00521-015-2064-z

Class decomposition describes the process of segmenting each class into a number of homogeneous subclasses. This can be naturally achieved through clustering. Utilising class decomposition can provide a number of benefits to supervised learning, espe...
