 A "Society of Mind" cognitive architecture based on the principles of artificial economics (2010)
Journal Article
Davis, D. N., & Venkatamuni, V. M. (2010).  A "Society of Mind" cognitive architecture based on the principles of artificial economics. International journal of artificial life research, 1(1), 51-71. https://doi.org/10.4018/jalr.2010102104

This research investigates the concept of mind as a control system using the "Society of Agents" metaphor, whereby the whole is described as the collective behavior of simple and intelligent agents. This powerful concept for mind research benefits fr... Read More about  A "Society of Mind" cognitive architecture based on the principles of artificial economics.

A perceptually relevant approach to ringing region detection (2010)
Journal Article
Liu, H., Klomp, N., & Heynderickx, I. (2010). A perceptually relevant approach to ringing region detection. IEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 19(6), 1414-1426. https://doi.org/10.1109/tip.2010.2041406

An efficient approach toward a no-reference ringing metric intrinsically exists of two steps: first detecting regions in an image where ringing might occur, and second quantifying the ringing annoyance in these regions. This paper presents a novel ap... Read More about A perceptually relevant approach to ringing region detection.

Modeling the deposition dynamics of a twin-atomizer spray forming system (2010)
Journal Article
Zhang, G., Li, Z., Zhang, Y., Mi, J., & Grant, P. S. (2010). Modeling the deposition dynamics of a twin-atomizer spray forming system. Metallurgical and Materials Transactions B, 41(2), 303-307. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11663-009-9333-0

A numerical study of the deposition dynamics of twin-atomizer spray-forming of large-diameter billets is presented with a focus on the coupled effect of the twinatomizer scan frequency and substrate rotation frequency. The common period of the two fr... Read More about Modeling the deposition dynamics of a twin-atomizer spray forming system.

Cognition, metacognition agents and architectures: society of mind approach to cognition and metacognition in cognitive architectures (2010)
Book
(2010). Cognition, metacognition agents and architectures: society of mind approach to cognition and metacognition in cognitive architectures. Lambert Academic Publishing

From the past course of 50 years of research, Artificial Intelligence has developed a large number of architectures and tools to solve the most difficult problems in Science and Engineering. Artificial Intelligence has developed in a number of direct...

Extending HiP-HOPS with Capabilities of Planning Preventative Maintenance (2010)
Book Chapter
Parker, D., & Papadopoulos, Y. (2010). Extending HiP-HOPS with Capabilities of Planning Preventative Maintenance. In M. Sarrafzadeh, & P. Petratos (Eds.), Strategic Advantage of Computing Information Systems in Enterprise Management (231 - 245). ATINER

An effective preventive maintenance (PM) policy for components of an engineering system slows down the rate at which component fatigue accumulates, thereby minimising the occurrence of component failure. The benefit of PM at system level is improveme... Read More about Extending HiP-HOPS with Capabilities of Planning Preventative Maintenance.

Spiking neurons and synaptic stimuli: Neural response comparison using coincidence-factor (2009)
Book Chapter
Sarangdhar, M., & Kambhampati, C. (2009). Spiking neurons and synaptic stimuli: Neural response comparison using coincidence-factor. In S.-I. Ao, & L. Gelman (Eds.), Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering; Advances in Electrical Engineering and Computational Science (681-692). Springer Verlag. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-90-481-2311-7_58

In this chapter, neural responses are generated by changing the Inter-Spike-Interval (ISI) of the stimulus. These responses are subsequently compared and a coincidence factor is obtained. Coincidence-factor, a measure of similarity, is expected to ge... Read More about Spiking neurons and synaptic stimuli: Neural response comparison using coincidence-factor.

Enabling personalised learning through formative and summative assessment (2009)
Book Chapter
Gordon, N. A. (2009). Enabling personalised learning through formative and summative assessment. In Technology-Supported Environments for Personalized Learning: Methods and Case Studies (268-284). Information Science Publishing. https://doi.org/10.4018/978-1-60566-884-0.ch015

This chapter considers some ways in which personalised learning can potentially be delivered by means of appropriate assessment and the use of associated technologies. Recognising that for many students, learning is driven by summative assessment, th... Read More about Enabling personalised learning through formative and summative assessment.

Generating and verifying risk prediction models using data mining (2009)
Book Chapter
Davis, D. N., & Nguyen, T. T. (2009). Generating and verifying risk prediction models using data mining. In P. Berka, J. Rauch, & D. Abdelkader Zighed (Eds.), Data mining and medical knowledge management: cases and applications (181-205). IGI Global. https://doi.org/10.4018/978-1-60566-218-3.ch009

Risk prediction models are of great interest to clinicians. They offer an explicit and repeatable means to aide the selection, from a general medical population, those patients that require a referral to medical consultants and specialists. In many m...

Qualitative temporal analysis: Towards a full implementation of the Fault Tree Handbook (2009)
Journal Article
Papadopoulos, Y., & Walker, M. (2009). Qualitative temporal analysis: Towards a full implementation of the Fault Tree Handbook. Control engineering practice, 17(10), 1115-1125. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.conengprac.2008.10.003

The Fault tree handbook has become the de facto standard for fault tree analysis (FTA), defining the notation and mathematical foundation of this widely used safety analysis technique. The Handbook recognises that classical combinatorial fault trees... Read More about Qualitative temporal analysis: Towards a full implementation of the Fault Tree Handbook.
