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.

Visible narratives (2009)
Presentation / Conference
Rooney, J. (2009, November). Visible narratives. Presented at Typographic Horizons, Birmingham City University

This project is created from digital recordings of the gesture. A Visible Narrative is the unseen path created by the pattern of gesture we make during the moment language. This is a deliberate strategy to place the focus of the viewer on images crea... Read More about Visible narratives.

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.

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...
