Polygon smoothing nurbs curves and surfaces (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Li, Q. (2005, June). Polygon smoothing nurbs curves and surfaces. Presented at Applied Simulation and Modelling (ASM 2005), Benalmádena, Spain

In conventional spline geometric shape design, each part of a designed object always evolves the same number of con trol points. This has been a disadvantage of the spline based geometric shape design schemes as much more points than necessary may be... Read More about Polygon smoothing nurbs curves and surfaces.

Advantages of 3D methods for face recognition research in humans (2005)
Journal Article
Liu, C., & Ward, J. (2005). Advantages of 3D methods for face recognition research in humans. Lecture notes in computer science, 3723, 244 - 254

Research on face recognition in humans has mainly relied on 2D images. This approach has certain limitations. First, observers become relatively passive in face encoding, although in reality they may be more spontaneous in exploring different views o...

Computer assisted orthopaedic surgical system for insertion of distal locking screws in intra-medullary nails: a valid and reliable navigation system (2005)
Journal Article
Malek, S., Phillips, R., Mohsen, A., Viant, W., Bielby, M., & Sherman, K. (2005). Computer assisted orthopaedic surgical system for insertion of distal locking screws in intra-medullary nails: a valid and reliable navigation system. International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery, 1(4), 34-44. https://doi.org/10.1002/rcs.54

The insertion of distal locking screws is a difficult task in intra-medullary (IM) nailing operations of long bones and contributes a significant proportion to the overall operating time. The current technique to insert these screws uses numerous flu...

Efficient XPath evaluation (2005)
Book
Wang, B., Feng, L., & Shen, Y. (2005). Efficient XPath evaluation. Springer Publishing Company. https://doi.org/10.1007/11547686_17

Inspired by the best querying performance of ViST among the rest of the approaches in the literature, and meanwhile to overcome its shortcomings, in this paper, we present another efficient and novel geometric sequence mechanism, which transforms XML... Read More about Efficient XPath evaluation.

The development and evaluation of a virtual radiotherapy treatment machine using an immersive visualisation environment (2005)
Journal Article
Bridge, P., Appleyard, R. M., Ward, J. W., Philips, R., & Beavis, A. W. (2007). The development and evaluation of a virtual radiotherapy treatment machine using an immersive visualisation environment. Computers & education, 49(2), 481-494. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compedu.2005.10.006

Due to the lengthy learning process associated with complicated clinical techniques, undergraduate radiotherapy students can struggle to access sufficient time or patients to gain the level of expertise they require. By developing a hybrid virtual en... Read More about The development and evaluation of a virtual radiotherapy treatment machine using an immersive visualisation environment.

A recurrent neural network for sound-source motion tracking and prediction (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Murray, J. C., Erwin, H., & Wermter, S. (2004, July). A recurrent neural network for sound-source motion tracking and prediction. Presented at Proceedings of the International Joint Conference on Neural Networks, Montreal, Que., Canada

Recurrent neural networks (RNN) have been used in many applications for both pattern detection and prediction. This paper shows the use of RNN's as a speed classifier and predictor for a robotic sound source tracking system. The system requires exten...

The use of 3D information in face recognition (2005)
Journal Article
Liu, C. H., & Ward, J. (2006). The use of 3D information in face recognition. Vision Research, 46(6-7), 768-773. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.visres.2005.10.008

Effects of shading in face recognition have often alluded to 3D shape processing. However, research to date has failed to demonstrate any use of important 3D information. Stereopsis adds no advantage in face encoding [Liu, C. H., Ward, J., & Young,... Read More about The use of 3D information in face recognition.

Neural observer by coordinate transformation (2005)
Journal Article
Delgado, A., Hou, M., & Kambhampati, C. (2005). Neural observer by coordinate transformation. IEE Proceedings Control Theory and Applications, 152(6), 698-706. https://doi.org/10.1049/ip-cta%3A20045069

Nonlinear control affine systems with maximum relative degree and a class of nonlinear differential equations can be transformed into a state representation known as the normal form. Based on the normal form an observer is designed using neural netwo... Read More about Neural observer by coordinate transformation.

VRVision: A new tool for the display of 3-D images in behavioral research (2005)

Researchers using three-dimensional (3-D) scenes in their studies often spend a lot of time prerendering the scenes into a set of images for later presentations. To improve efficiency, we have developed a new plug-in program for MATLAB that eliminate... Read More about VRVision: A new tool for the display of 3-D images in behavioral research.
