Semi-automatic FMEA supporting complex systems with combinations and sequences of failures (2009)
Journal Article
Walker, M., Papadopoulos, Y., Parker, D., Lönn, H., Törngren, M., Chen, D., Johannson, R., & Sandberg, A. (2009). Semi-automatic FMEA supporting complex systems with combinations and sequences of failures. SAE International Journal of Passenger Cars - Mechanical Systems, 2(1), 791-802. https://doi.org/10.4271/2009-01-0738

Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a well established safety analysis technique used for the assessment of safety critical engineering systems in the automotive industry. Although FMEA has been shown to be useful, the analysis is typically... Read More about Semi-automatic FMEA supporting complex systems with combinations and sequences of failures.

2D piecewise algebraic splines for implicit modeling (2009)
Journal Article
Li, Q., & Tian, J. (2009). 2D piecewise algebraic splines for implicit modeling. ACM Transactions on Graphics, 28(2), Article ARTN 13. https://doi.org/10.1145/1516522.1516524

2D splines are a powerful tool for shape modeling, either parametrically or implicitly. However, compared with regular grid-based tensor-product splines, most of the high-dimensional spline techniques based on nonregular 2D polygons, such as box spli...

Robotic sound-source localisation architecture using cross-correlation and recurrent neural networks (2009)
Journal Article
Murray, J. C., Erwin, H. R., & Wermter, S. (2009). Robotic sound-source localisation architecture using cross-correlation and recurrent neural networks. Neural Networks, 22(2), 173-189. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neunet.2009.01.013

In this paper we present a sound-source model for localising and tracking an acoustic source of interest along the azimuth plane in acoustically cluttered environments, for a mobile service robot. The model we present is a hybrid architecture using c... Read More about Robotic sound-source localisation architecture using cross-correlation and recurrent neural networks.

On the lifetime of wireless sensor networks (2009)
Journal Article
Dietrich, I., & Dressler, F. (2009). On the lifetime of wireless sensor networks. ACM Transactions on Sensor Networks, 5(1), Article ARTN 5. https://doi.org/10.1145/1464420.1464425

Network lifetime has become the key characteristic for evaluating sensor networks in an application-specific way. Especially the availability of nodes, the sensor coverage, and the connectivity have been included in discussions on network lifetime. E...

Quantum recurrent neural networks for filtering (2009)
Thesis
Ahamed, W. U. Quantum recurrent neural networks for filtering. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4209270

The essence of stochastic filtering is to compute the time-varying probability densityfunction (pdf) for the measurements of the observed system. In this thesis, a filter isdesigned based on the principles of quantum mechanics where the schrodinger w... Read More about Quantum recurrent neural networks for filtering.

A language for failure patterns and application in safety analysis (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wolforth, I., Walker, M., & Papadopoulos, Y. A language for failure patterns and application in safety analysis. Presented at 2008 Third International Conference on Dependability of Computer Systems DepCoS-RELCOMEX

Components and families of components in mechatronic systems often exhibit failure characteristics that are independent of system context and repeatable across applications. In this paper, we show that it is possible to capture and reuse such pattern... Read More about A language for failure patterns and application in safety analysis.

Semi automatic failure analysis based on simulation models (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hamann, R., Uhlig, A., Papadopoulos, Y., Rüde, E., Grätz, U., Walker, M., & Lien, R. (2018, June). Semi automatic failure analysis based on simulation models. Presented at Volume 2: Structures, Safety and Reliability

Classical risk assessment and risk management which is gaining importance in many industries is usually based on well defined processes and uses techniques like FTA and FMEA. However, classical risk analysis techniques like FTA and FMEA should ideall... Read More about Semi automatic failure analysis based on simulation models.

Multi-objective optimization of dependability attributes using an asynchronous heterogeneous hierarchical parallel genetic algorithm (2008)
Journal Article
Wenhua, Z., Papadopoulos, Y., & Parker, D. (2008). Multi-objective optimization of dependability attributes using an asynchronous heterogeneous hierarchical parallel genetic algorithm. IFAC Proceedings Volumes/ International Federation of Automatic Control, 41(3), 199-204. https://doi.org/10.3182/20081205-2-cl-4009.00036

The optimal satisfaction of dependability attributes and cost, in the design of engineering systems, is a hard multi-objective optimization problem which requires automated algorithms that can effectively search large design spaces. In this paper, a... Read More about Multi-objective optimization of dependability attributes using an asynchronous heterogeneous hierarchical parallel genetic algorithm.
