Single interfaces and coupled-waveguide arrays: off-axis nonparaxial analyses (2014)
Presentation / Conference
McCoy, E., Christian, J., McDonald, G., Sanchez-Curto, J., & Chamorro-Posada, P. (2014, September). Single interfaces and coupled-waveguide arrays: off-axis nonparaxial analyses. Presented at 5th European Optical Society Annual Meeting, Berlin, Germany

We report on our most recent results concerning arbitrary-angle spatial soliton
refraction at the interface between dissimilar dielectrics, each of which comprises
both X(3)and X(5) susceptibilities. Attention is also paid to the oblique injectio... Read More about Single interfaces and coupled-waveguide arrays: off-axis nonparaxial analyses.

MRAR : mining multi-relation association rules (2014)
Journal Article
Ramezani, R., Saraee, M., & Nematbakhsh, M. (2014). MRAR : mining multi-relation association rules. Journal of computing and security (Online), 1(2), 133-158

In this paper, we introduce a new class of association rules (ARs) named
“Multi-Relation Association Rules” which in contrast to primitive ARs (that
are usually extracted from multi-relational databases), each rule item consists
of one entity and... Read More about MRAR : mining multi-relation association rules.

A fuzzy method for discovering cost-effective actions from data (2014)
Journal Article
Kalanat, N., Shamsinejadbabaki, P., & Saraee, M. (2014). A fuzzy method for discovering cost-effective actions from data. Journal of Intelligent and Fuzzy Systems, 28(2), 757-765. https://doi.org/10.3233/IFS-141357

Data mining techniques are often confined to the delivery of frequent patterns and stop short of suggesting how to act on these patterns for business decision-making. They require human experts to post-process the discovered patterns manually. Theref... Read More about A fuzzy method for discovering cost-effective actions from data.

A combined model for improving estimation of atmospheric boundary layer height (2014)
Journal Article
Bachtiar, V., Davies, F., & Danson, F. (2014). A combined model for improving estimation of atmospheric boundary layer height. Atmospheric Environment, 98, 461-473. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.atmosenv.2014.09.028

Atmospheric boundary layer height is one of the most important parameters in atmospheric dispersion modelling because it has a large effect on predicted air quality. Comparisons between Atmospheric Dispersion Modelling System, version 4 (ADMS 4) and... Read More about A combined model for improving estimation of atmospheric boundary layer height.

Lateral load bearing capacity modelling of piles in cohesive soils in undrained conditions; an intelligent evolutionary approach (2014)
Journal Article

Adaptive learning with covariate shift-detection for non-stationary environments (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Raza, H., Prasad, G., & Li, Y. (2014, September). Adaptive learning with covariate shift-detection for non-stationary environments. Presented at 14th UK Workshop on Computational Intelligence (UKCI2014), Bradford, England

Learning with dataset shift is a major challenge in non-stationary environments wherein the input data distribution may shift over time. Detecting the dataset shift point in the time-series data, where the distribution of time-series shifts its prope...

Exploratory analysis of the factors involved in the perception of the quality of urban soundscapes (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Garcia-Checa, F., Perez-Martinez, G., Torija Martinez, A., & Ruiz, D. (2014, September). Exploratory analysis of the factors involved in the perception of the quality of urban soundscapes. Presented at 7th Forum Acusticum, FA 2014, Krakow, Poland

The identity of urban environments are largely determined by their history and current use, which should be closely related. Moreover, the particular sound of a specific urban site should be a distinct component of its image and identity, thanks to w...

Analysis of the suitability of using the A-weighting filter for evaluating road traffic exposure (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Torija Martinez, A., Flindell, I., & Ruiz, D. (2014, September). Analysis of the suitability of using the A-weighting filter for evaluating road traffic exposure. Presented at 7th Forum Acusticum, FA 2014, Krakow, Poland

A-weighted sound pressure level is the most widely used descriptor for evaluating noise annoyance. However, strong criticism is associated with the dB(A) scale because it overcompensates for the hearing system’s reduced sensi...
