In the market exists a large variety of media devices, reaching from mobile handsets equipped with headphones up to an ultra-high resolution display connected with a large loudspeaker setup. This makes it difficult for the broadcast industry to provi... Read More about Format-Agnostic approach for 3d audio.

Autonomous geographies in the anti-US military base movements (2011)
Journal Article
Fois, F., & Paragano, D. (2011). Autonomous geographies in the anti-US military base movements. Peace Review, 23(3), 313-319. https://doi.org/10.1080/10402659.2011.596055

The construction of a military base in a foreign country paints a portrait
of international relationships based on a top-down decision-making process.
Despite the huge academic and political debate about the importance of a participative
approach... Read More about Autonomous geographies in the anti-US military base movements.

Modeling batch annealing process using data mining techniques for cold rolled steel sheets (2011)
Presentation / Conference
Saraee, M., Moghimi, M., & Bagheri, A. (2011, August). Modeling batch annealing process using data mining techniques for cold rolled steel sheets. Presented at The 17th Annual ACM SIGKDD Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining, San Diego

The annealing process is one of the important operations in production of cold rolled steel sheets, which significantly influences the final product quality of cold rolling mills. In this process, cold rolled coils are heated slowly to a desired temp... Read More about Modeling batch annealing process using data mining techniques for cold rolled steel sheets.

Examination of the online reputation systems problems and provide solution (2011)
Presentation / Conference
Ehghaghi Kakoli, Z., Nematbakhsh, M., & Saraee, M. (2011, August). Examination of the online reputation systems problems and provide solution. Presented at 13th IEEE Joint International Computer Science and Information Technology Conference (JICSIT 2011), Chongqing, China

Electronic commerce communities are considered to
be communities that provide opportunities for the sellers on
the one hand and include threats for the purchasers on the
other hand. One of the ways to reduce such threats in these
open communities... Read More about Examination of the online reputation systems problems and provide solution.

Intracellular mapping with SERS-encoded gold nanostars (2011)
Journal Article
Rodríguez-Lorenzo, L., Krpetic, Z., Barbosa, S., Alvarez-Puebla, R., Liz-Marzán, L., Prior, I., & Brust, M. (2011). Intracellular mapping with SERS-encoded gold nanostars. Integrative Biology, 3(9), 922-926. https://doi.org/10.1039/C1IB00029B

Here we report on the design, synthesis and application of small, highly bright, star-shaped SERS encoded single nanoparticles with the ability of providing an optical signal upon excitation with near infrared light. These particles are colloidally s... Read More about Intracellular mapping with SERS-encoded gold nanostars.

Nano-structured morphological features of pulsed direct current magnetron sputtered Mo films for photovoltaic applications (2011)
Journal Article

Historically, molybdenum thin films have been used as the back contact for Cu(In,Ga)Se2 based solar cells and as such the properties of these layers play an important role in the overall cell structure. This paper describes the production of molybden... Read More about Nano-structured morphological features of pulsed direct current magnetron sputtered Mo films for photovoltaic applications.

Scattering of Helmholtz spatial optical solitons at material interfaces (2011)
Presentation / Conference
McCoy, E., Christian, J., & Mcdonald, G. (2011, August). Scattering of Helmholtz spatial optical solitons at material interfaces. Presented at First Annual Student Conference on Complexity Science, Winchester University, UK

The behaviour of light at the interface between different materials essentially defines the entire field of Optics. Indeed, the reflection and refraction properties of plane waves at the boundary between two dissimilar linear dielectrics are analysed...

Spatial solitons and instabilities in two-colour Helmholtz light fields (2011)
Presentation / Conference
Bostock, C., Christian, J., & Mcdonald, G. (2011, August). Spatial solitons and instabilities in two-colour Helmholtz light fields. Presented at First Annual Student Conference on Complexity Science, Winchester University, UK

Two-colour optical beams comprise a pair of light waves at two well-separated temporal frequencies, and which are coupled through system nonlinearity (e.g., the Kerr-type response in the host material of a planar waveguide). In addition to their fund... Read More about Spatial solitons and instabilities in two-colour Helmholtz light fields.

Cities and the low carbon transition (2011)
Journal Article

The notion of a low carbon transition is beguilingly simple. We use too much of the wrong sort of energy. We need to use the right sort of energy, and we need to use less of it.

Selecting training points for one-class support vector machines (2011)

This paper proposes a training points selection method for one-class support vector machines. It exploits the feature of a trained one-class SVM, which uses points only residing on the exterior region of data distribution as support vectors. Thus, th...

Substantial temperature dependence of transverse electron g*-factor in lead chalcogenide multi-quantum wells (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We report significant temperature dependence of the transverse electron g*‐factor in symmetric lead chalcogenide multi‐quantum wells (MQWs).
