Utilizing citizen science data to rapidly assess changing associations between wild birds and avian influenza outbreaks in poultry (2024)
Journal Article
Vickers, S. H., Raghwani, J., Banyard, A. C., Brown, I. H., Fournie, G., & Hill, S. C. (in press). Utilizing citizen science data to rapidly assess changing associations between wild birds and avian influenza outbreaks in poultry. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 291, Article 20241713. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2024.1713

High pathogenicity avian influenza virus (HPAIV) is a rapidly evolving virus causing significant economic and environmental harm. Wild birds are a key viral reservoir and an important source of viral incursions into animal populations, including poul...

Confidence limits for coherence – toward a better understanding of its use as a diffuse field metric for quantifying the quality of Direct Field Acoustic Noise (DFAN) Testing systems (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

To determine the degree of diffuseness of a particular acoustic field, an oft-considered metric is the coherence between spaced pairs of measurement microphones. This is useful because the expected theoretical ‘sinc2’ trend for a diffuse field is wel...

An Improved Routing Protocol for Optimum Quality of Service in Device-to-Device and Energy Efficiency in 5G/B5G (2024)
Journal Article
Bunu, S. M., Alani, O. Y., & Saraee, M. (2024). An Improved Routing Protocol for Optimum Quality of Service in Device-to-Device and Energy Efficiency in 5G/B5G. Future Internet, 16(9), Article 347. https://doi.org/10.3390/fi16090347

Some challenges when implementing the optimized link state routing (OLSR) protocol on real-life devices and simulators are unmanageable: link quality, rapid energy depletion, and high processor loads. The causes of these challenges are link state pro... Read More about An Improved Routing Protocol for Optimum Quality of Service in Device-to-Device and Energy Efficiency in 5G/B5G.

Artificial Neural Network Algorithm in Nutritional Assessment: Implication for Machine Learning Prediction in Nutritional Assessments (2024)
Book Chapter

In the current study, we used an artificial neural network (ANN) machine learning algorithm to construct an artificial intelligence-based nutritional assessment system. The algorithm used information from a user's regular meals as well as their preex...
