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)
Journal Article
Walker, M., & Papadopoulos, Y. (2008). Synthesis and analysis of temporal fault trees with PANDORA: the time of Priority AND gates. Nonlinear Analysis: Hybrid Systems, 2(2), 368-382. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nahs.2006.05.003

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...

Radiotherapy training tools for yesterday’s future (2007)
Book Chapter
(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...

Fuzzy geometric object modelling (2007)
Book Chapter
Li, Q., & Guo, S. (2007). Fuzzy geometric object modelling. In Advances in Soft Computing; Fuzzy Information and Engineering (551-563). Spinger. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-71441-5_60

Fuzzy geometric object modelling has been one of the fundamental tasks in computer graphics. In this paper, we investigated and developed techniques for modelling fuzzy objects based on fuzzy set theory. With the proposed techniques any conventional...

Transfer between two- and three-dimensional representations of faces (2006)
Journal Article
Liu, C. H., Ward, J., & Young, A. W. (2006). Transfer between two- and three-dimensional representations of faces. Visual Cognition, 13(1), 51-64. https://doi.org/10.1080/13506280500143391

Because stereoscopic depth cues are not present in an ordinary photograph, matching a two-dimensional (2-D) photograph to a three-dimensional (3-D) face requires establishing a correspondence between information derived from monocular depth cues and...

Face recognition in pictures is affected by perspective transformation but not by the centre of projection (2006)
Journal Article
Liu, C. H., & Ward, J. (2006). Face recognition in pictures is affected by perspective transformation but not by the centre of projection. Perception, 35(12), 1637-1650. https://doi.org/10.1068/p5545

Recognition of unfamiliar faces is susceptible to image differences caused by angular sizes subtended from the face to the camera. Research on perception of cubes suggests that apparent distortions of a shape due to large camera angle are correctable...
