An architecture to support web‐based information extraction using domain ontologies (2009)
Presentation / Conference
Sugumaran, V., & Meziane, F. (2009, December). An architecture to support web‐based information extraction using domain ontologies. Presented at 8th workshop on EBusiness (WEB2009),, Phoenix, Arizona, USA

The web is the world’s most valuable information resource. However, a wide gap has emerged between the information available for software applications vis-à-vis human consumption. In response to this problem, new research initiatives have focused on... Read More about An architecture to support web‐based information extraction using domain ontologies.

Dataset selection for training one-class support vector machines (2009)
Presentation / Conference
Li, Y., & Maguire, L. (2009, December). Dataset selection for training one-class support vector machines. Presented at International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Software Engineering, Wuhan, China

This paper proposes an efficient training strategy for one-class support vector machines. The strategy exploits the feature of a trained one-class SVM which uses points only residing on the exterior region of data distribution as support vectors. Thu...

Modeling environmental noise using artificial neural networks (2009)
Presentation / Conference
Genaro, N., Torija Martinez, A., Ramos, A., Requena, I., Ruiz, D., & Zamorano, M. (2009, November). Modeling environmental noise using artificial neural networks. Presented at 2009 Ninth International Conference on Intelligent Systems Design and Applications, Pisa, Italy

Since 1972, when the World Health Organization (WHO) classified noise as a pollutant, most industrialized countries have enacted laws or local regulations that regulate noise levels. Many scientists have tried to model urban noise, but the result... Read More about Modeling environmental noise using artificial neural networks.

Extracting temporal rules from medical data (2009)
Presentation / Conference
Meamarzadeh, H., Khayyambashi, M., & Saraee, M. (2009, November). Extracting temporal rules from medical data. Presented at The 2009 International Conference on Computer Technology and Development, Kota, Kinabalu, Malaysia

Trauma is the main leading cause of death in children; we need a tool to prevent and predict the outcome in these patients. Data mining is the science of extracting the useful information from a large amount of data sets or databases that leads to... Read More about Extracting temporal rules from medical data.

Towards best mangement of runoff in new developments (2009)

Studies in modal density – its effect at low frequencies (2009)
Presentation / Conference
Wankling, M., & Fazenda, B. (2009, November). Studies in modal density – its effect at low frequencies. Presented at Reproduced Sound 25, Brighton

The ability to objectively measure the reproduction quality of a small room at low frequencies has long been desired. Over many years, there have been attempts to produce recommendations, metrics, and criteria by which to define a particular room. Th...

Objective quality measurement of audio using multiband dynamic range analysis (2009)
Presentation / Conference
Fenton, S., Fazenda, B., & Wakefield, J. (2009, November). Objective quality measurement of audio using multiband dynamic range analysis. Presented at Reproduced sound 25, Brighton

Ever since the very first recordings were made, people have strived to improve the recording and playback process to a point of ‘complete transparency’. However, in music production, it’s certainly the case that sound-engineers and producers employ t... Read More about Objective quality measurement of audio using multiband dynamic range analysis.

Characterisation of the directionality of reflections in small room acoustics (2009)
Presentation / Conference
Romero, J., Fazenda, B., & Atmoko, H. (2009, November). Characterisation of the directionality of reflections in small room acoustics. Presented at Reproduced sound 25, Brighton

This paper investigates the extraction and analysis of temporal and spatial distribution of early sound decay. A method based on B-format signals is adapted for small rooms. It can map the spatial and temporal distribution of sound energy and its di... Read More about Characterisation of the directionality of reflections in small room acoustics.
