The plagiarism panic and the partial academic (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Procter, C. (2007, September). The plagiarism panic and the partial academic. Presented at ECE conference 2007, University of Salford

This paper is concerned with exploring the causes of plagiarism. The author presented his own experience in the investigation of plagiarism over a four year period.

This experience suggests that plagiarism can be the result of poor academic prac... Read More about The plagiarism panic and the partial academic.

A new and robust apple evaluation method using image processing (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Mirzaei, H., & Saraee, M. (2007, August). A new and robust apple evaluation method using image processing. Presented at First Joint Congress on Fuzzy and Intelligent Systems, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Iran

Fruit evaluation is a necessary component of vegetable and fruit sorting system. Recently, machine vision applications for sorting and inspecting some fruit vegetables have been studied by many scientists. In this paper a new and robust computer visi...

Entropy-based epistasy search in SNP case-control studies (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Manzour, A., & Saraee, M. (2007, August). Entropy-based epistasy search in SNP case-control studies. Presented at Fuzzy Systems and Knowledge Discovery, 2007. FSKD 2007., Haikou, China

The purpose of gene mapping is to identify the causal genetic regions of a specific phenotype mainly a complex disease. Most complex diseases are believed to have multiple contributing loci often having subtle patterns which make them fairly difficul...

Investigating the differences in web browsing behaviour of Chinese and European users using mouse tracking (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Griffiths, L., & Chen, Z. (2007, July). Investigating the differences in web browsing behaviour of Chinese and European users using mouse tracking. Presented at UI-HCII'07 Proceedings of the 2nd international conference on Usability and internationalization Springer-Verlag Berlin, Heidelberg ©2007, Beijing, China

The World Wide Web has become a ubiquitous information source and communication channel. With such an extensive user population, it is imperative to understand how users view Web pages. Studies of Web browsing behaviour aimed at different cultures ha... Read More about Investigating the differences in web browsing behaviour of Chinese and European users using mouse tracking.

The object and the event: The power in things (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Fletcher, G., & Greenhill, A. (2007, July). The object and the event: The power in things. Presented at Critical Management Studies, University of Manchester

This paper examines information and communications technology artefacts as a subset of the broader range of cultural items that surround and pervade contemporary experiences of the everyday. Within this context the paper utilises the critical perspec... Read More about The object and the event: The power in things.

Design and manufacture for sustainable development in Wales (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Thomas, A. (2007, July). Design and manufacture for sustainable development in Wales. Presented at Fifth International Conference on Design and Manufacture for Sustainable Development (Sustain 07), Loughborough University, UK

The influence of visual search upon subsequent change detection (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Thompson, C., & Crundall, D. (2007, July). The influence of visual search upon subsequent change detection. Poster presented at Joint Meeting of the Experimental Psychology Society and the Psychonomic Society, Edinburgh, UK

The top-down allocation of attention is based on the goals of the observer, however there is an argument that attention may also be affected by implicit processes. Two experiments paired a visual search task with a change detection task to evaluate t... Read More about The influence of visual search upon subsequent change detection.

An efficient dual-time implicit method for high-lift aerodynamics using differential Reynolds-stress modelling (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Jahangirian, A., & Johnston, L. (2007, July). An efficient dual-time implicit method for high-lift aerodynamics using differential Reynolds-stress modelling. Presented at 2nd European Conference for AeroSpace Sciences, Brussels, Belgium

A method to compute the aerodynamics of multi-element aerofoil, high-lift systems is outlined. The Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations are solved using an unstructured-grid approach, together with a finite-volume spatial discretisation and a du...

Face recognition using discrete cosine transform plus linear discriminant analysis (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Hajiarbabi, M., Askari, J., Sadri, S., & Saraee, M. (2007, July). Face recognition using discrete cosine transform plus linear discriminant analysis. Presented at The World Congress on Engineering (WCE 2007), London, U.K., 2-4 July, 2007., London, U.K

Face recognition is a biometric identification methodwhich among the other methods such as, finger printidentification, speech recognition, signature and hand writtenrecognition has assigned a special place to itself. In principle, thebiometric ident... Read More about Face recognition using discrete cosine transform plus linear discriminant analysis.

The evaluation of camera motion, defocusing and noise immunity for linear appearance based methods in face recognition (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Hajiarbabi, M., Askari, J., Sadri, S., & Saraee, M. (2007, July). The evaluation of camera motion, defocusing and noise immunity for linear appearance based methods in face recognition. Presented at World Congress on Engineering 2007 Vol I WCE 2007, July 2 - 4, 2007, London, U.K, London, U.K

Face recognition has assigned a special place to itself because of its low intrusiveness, low cost and effort and acceptable accuracy. There are several methods for recognition and appearance based methods is one of the most popular one. Unfortunatel...

Construction physics (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Bertelsen, S., Henrich, G., Koskela, L., & Rooke, J. (2007, July). Construction physics. Presented at 15th Annual Conference of the International Group for Lean Construction, Michigan State University, East Lansing

At the 14th annual conference in the International Group for Lean Construction in 2006 the authors presented the concept of construction as a process being fed by a number of flows out of which one is the critical one deciding the speed with which th... Read More about Construction physics.
