Estimation of end curvatures from planar point data (2007)
Book Chapter
Ma, X., & Cripps, R. J. (2007). Estimation of end curvatures from planar point data. In R. Martin, M. Sabin, & J. Winkler (Eds.), Mathematics of Surfaces XII; Lecture Notes in Computer Science (307-319). Springer Berlin Heidelberg. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-73843-5_19

Given a string of discrete planar points, the estimation of principal curvature vectors using circle fitting and Richardson’s extrapolation principle has been considered by several authors. However, these methods can not be directly applied to end po... Read More about Estimation of end curvatures from planar point data.

An interaction predictive approach to fault-tolerant control in network control systems (2007)
Journal Article
Kambhampati, C., Perkgoz, C., Patton, R. J., & Ahamed, W. (2007). An interaction predictive approach to fault-tolerant control in network control systems. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part I: Journal of Systems and Control Engineering, 221(6), 885-894. https://doi.org/10.1243/09596518jsce377

This paper illustrates some of the capabilities of previously proposed network control system (NCS) architectures to carry on functioning in the event of faults, without recourse to system reconfiguration. The principle of interaction prediction is u... Read More about An interaction predictive approach to fault-tolerant control in network control systems.

The role of active exploration of 3D face stimuli on recognition memory of facial information (2007)
Journal Article
Liu, C. H., Ward, J., & Markall, H. (2007). The role of active exploration of 3D face stimuli on recognition memory of facial information. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 33(4), 895-904. https://doi.org/10.1037/0096-1523.33.4.895

Research on face recognition has mainly relied on methods in which observers are relatively passive viewers of face stimuli. This study investigated whether active exploration of three-dimensional (3D) face stimuli could facilitate recognition memory...

Steering via the image in local, distributed and collaborative settings (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wright, H., & Wood, J. D. Steering via the image in local, distributed and collaborative settings

Computational steering is a valuable mechanism for scientific investigation in which the parameters of a running program can be altered and the results visualized immediately. In a previous paper we put forward an architecture for computational steer... Read More about Steering via the image in local, distributed and collaborative settings.

Smooth piecewise polynomial blending operations for implicit shapes (2007)
Journal Article
Li, Q. (2007). Smooth piecewise polynomial blending operations for implicit shapes. Computer graphics forum : journal of the European Association for Computer Graphics, 26(2), 157-171. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-8659.2007.01011.x

In this paper, we present a new set of blending operations for implicitly defined geometric shapes. The proposed shape operators are piecewise polynomial and blending range controllable, and can be constructed to any required degree of smoothness. Th...

Use of program and data-specific heuristics for automatic software test data generation (2007)
Thesis
Alshraideh, M. Use of program and data-specific heuristics for automatic software test data generation. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4217477

The application of heuristic search techniques, such as genetic algorithms, to the problem of automatically generating software test data has been a growing interest for many researchers in recent years. The problem tackled by this thesis is the deve... Read More about Use of program and data-specific heuristics for automatic software test data generation.

Synthesis and analysis of temporal fault trees with PANDORA: the time of Priority AND gates (2007)

Classical Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) can determine the effects of combinations of failure events on a system but cannot capture the significance of the temporal order of events, which may be critical. In this paper, we propose an extension based on fo... Read More about Synthesis and analysis of temporal fault trees with PANDORA: the time of Priority AND gates.

Immersive visualization with automated collision detection for radiotherapy treatment planning (2007)
Journal Article
Ward, J. W., Phillips, R., Williams, T., Shang, C., Page, L., Prest, C., & Beavis, A. W. (2007). Immersive visualization with automated collision detection for radiotherapy treatment planning. Studies in health technology and informatics, 125, 491 - 496

Intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) is a technique for treating cancer tumours using external delivery of radiation. To create a treatment plan the directions of the external radiation beams (typically 5 to 9) need to be specified. Normally the b...

(2007). Radiotherapy training tools for yesterday’s future. In Imaging and Oncology (30 - 35). Deeson Group

Radiotherapy techniques have evolved rapidly in recent years. However, the uptake and clinical implementation of novel techniques, such as intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), was slower than was initially anticipated. One of the reasons often gi...
