The efficacy of knowledge management for personalised healthcare (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bali, R. K., Dwivedi, A., & Naguib, R. N. The efficacy of knowledge management for personalised healthcare. Presented at International Workshop on Personalised Health: The Integration of Innovative Sensing, Textiles, Information and Communication Technologies, Belfast, UK

This chapter examines some of the key issues surrounding the incorporation of the Knowledge Management (KM) paradigm for personalised healthcare. We discuss the complex nature of KM, some essential concepts necessary to make personalised healthcare a... Read More about The efficacy of knowledge management for personalised healthcare.

Challenges in the epidemiological investigation of the relationships between physical activity, obesity, diabetes, dementia and depression (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Brayne, C., Gao, L., & Matthews, F. (2005). Challenges in the epidemiological investigation of the relationships between physical activity, obesity, diabetes, dementia and depression. Neurobiology of Aging, 26(SUPPL.), 6-10. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neurobiolaging.2005.09.030

There are many challenges facing epidemiologists wishing to investigate relationships between physical activity, obesity, diabetes, dementia and depression, all of which are complex fields in their own right. There is a large literature investigating...

Clinical knowledge management: An overview of current understanding (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bali, R. K., & Dwivedi, A. Clinical knowledge management: An overview of current understanding

This chapter outlines contributions to a workshop for ICMCC 2005. We details some of the central issues surrounding the incorporation of the Knowledge Management (KM) paradigm for the healthcare and clinical sectors. The complex nature of KM is discu...

Temporal characteristics of neuronal sources for implied motion perception (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lorteije, J., & Jellema, T. Temporal characteristics of neuronal sources for implied motion perception

Viewing photographs of objects in motion evokes higher fMRI activation in human MT+ than similar photographs without this implied motion. MT+ is traditionally considered to be involved in motion perception. Therefore, this finding suggests feedback f...

SuperVise: Using grid tools to simplify visualization (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Osborne, J., & Wright, H. (2005, September). SuperVise: Using grid tools to simplify visualization. Presented at Parallel Processing and Applied Mathematics, 6th International Conference, PPAM 2005, Poznan, Poland

The visualization process is complicated enough for visualization experts but more so for domain specialists. Problems include managing the transfer of large datasets and choosing appropriate techniques. When we consider performing these tasks in a m...

Least squares ellipsoid specific fitting (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Li, Q., & Griffiths, J. (2004, April). Least squares ellipsoid specific fitting. Presented at Geometric Modeling and Processing, 2004., Beijing, China

In this paper, a sufficient condition for a quadric surface to be an ellipsoid has been developed and a closed-form solution for ellipsoid fitting is developed based on this constraint, which is a best fit to the given data amongst those ellipsoids w...

Implicit curve and surface design using smooth unit step functions (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Li, Q., & Phillips, R. (2004, June). Implicit curve and surface design using smooth unit step functions. Presented at ACM Symposium on Solid and Physical Modeling, Genoa, Italy

This paper presents an implicit curve and surface design technique that uses smooth unit step functions. With the proposed method, an implicit curve or surface can be generated by inputting a sequence of points together with the normals at these poin...

The application of sacral nerve stimulation to the disrupted anal sphincter (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gardiner, A., & Duthie, G. (2004). The application of sacral nerve stimulation to the disrupted anal sphincter. Gastroenterology, 126(4), A361 - A361

Background Sacral nerve stimulation has been successfully used in the treatment of faecalincontinence. It has been applied to patients with intact anal sphincters. We have assessed20 patients with either an external sphincter defect or combined EAS a... Read More about The application of sacral nerve stimulation to the disrupted anal sphincter.

Silicon pathology? (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marshall, A., & Tompsett, B. Silicon pathology?

Stereo visualization of 3D trabecular bone structures produced by bone remodelling simulation (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Phillips, R., Grunchec, J. A., Ward, J. W., Fagan, M. J., Dobson, C. A., Langton, C. M., & Sisias, G. Stereo visualization of 3D trabecular bone structures produced by bone remodelling simulation

Adult human bone is constantly being renewed by a process known as remodelling. For cancellous bone this renewal process occurs at the interface between bone and marrow where bone is depleted by osteoclasts and rebuilt by osteoblasts. This remodellin...
