Polarimetry and spectroscopy of the 'oxygen flaring' DQ Herculis-like nova: V5668 Sagittarii (2015).
(EDP Sciences, 2018-09-05)
Context. Classical novae are eruptions on the surface of a white dwarf in a binary system. The material ejected from the white dwarf surface generally forms an axisymmetric shell of gas and dust around the system. The ...
On the role of industry contact on the motivation and professional development of engineering students.
(Frontiers in Education, 2019-10)
This full research paper aims to investigate the nature of industry-related activities engineering students encounter at a Swedish university, as well as the impact these activities have on their motivation to study ...
Using the Agile software development lifecycle to develop a standalone application for generating colour magnitude diagrams.
(Elsevier, 2019-07)
Virtual observatories allow the means by which an astronomer is able to discover, access, and process data seamlessly, regardless of its physical location. However, steep learning curves are often required to become ...
Eye-based continuous affect prediction.
(IEEE Xplore, 2019-12)
Eye-based information channels include the pupils, gaze, saccades, fixational movements, and numerous forms of eye opening and closure. Pupil size variation indicates cognitive load and emotion, while a person's gaze ...
Speech, head, and eye-based cues for continuous affect prediction.
(IEEE Xplore, 2019-12)
Continuous affect prediction involves the discrete time-continuous regression of affect dimensions. Researchers in this domain are currently embracing multimodal model input. This provides motivation for researchers to ...
The self-generating model: an adaptation of the self-organizing map for intellgent agents and data mining.
(Springer International, 2018-04-19)
We present the Self-Generating Model (SGM), a new version of the Self-organizing Map (SOM) that has been adapted for use in intelligent data mining ALife agents. The SGM sacrifices the topology-preserving ability of the ...
Introducing PyCross: PyCloudy rendering of shape software for pseudo 3D ionisation modelling of nebulae.
(Elsevier, 2020-04-29)
Research into the processes of photoionised nebulae plays a significant part in our understanding of stellar evolution. It is extremely difficult to visually represent or model ionised nebula, requiring astronomers to ...
HLAF: heterogeneous-latency adaptive forwarding strategy for peer-assisted video streaming in NDN.
(IEEE, 2017-09)
Named Data Networking (NDN) is a promising Future Internet architecture to support efficient content distribution. Specifically, P2P may gain benefits from NDN, as NDN inherently provides a flexible forwarding plane for ...
Continuous affect prediction using eye gaze and speech.
(IEEE, 2017-12)
Affective computing research traditionally focused on labeling a person's emotion as one of a discrete number of classes e.g. happy or sad. In recent times, more attention has been given to continuous affect prediction ...
Speech intelligibility and quality: a comparative study of speech enhancement algorithms.
(IEEE, 2017-07)
Mobile devices are widely used today for speech communication. The environments in which these devices are used are widely varied and often the level of background noise in the speaker's environment can be significant. The ...
