Delineating anaplasma phagocytophilum ecotypes in coexisting, discrete enzootic cycles (2009)
Journal Article
Bown, K., Lambin, X., Ogden, N., Begon, M., Telford, G., Woldehiwet, Z., & Birtles, R. (2009). Delineating anaplasma phagocytophilum ecotypes in coexisting, discrete enzootic cycles. Emerging Infectious Diseases, 15(12), https://doi.org/10.3201/eid1512.090178

The emerging tick-borne pathogen Anaplasma phagocytophilum is under increasing scrutiny for the existence of subpopulations that are adapted to different natural cycles. Here, we characterized the diversity of A. phagocytophilum genotypes circula... Read More about Delineating anaplasma phagocytophilum ecotypes in coexisting, discrete enzootic cycles.

Development of a species-specific coproantigen ELISA for human taenia solium taeniasis (2009)
Journal Article

Taenia solium causes human neurocysticercosis and is endemic in underdeveloped countries where backyard pig keeping is common. Microscopic fecal diagnostic methods for human T. solium taeniasis are not very sensitive, and Taenia saginata and Taenia s...

A new framework for recognition of heavily degraded characters in historical typewritten documents based on semi-supervised clustering (2009)
Conference Proceeding
Pletschacher, S., Hu, J., & Antonacopoulos, A. (2009). A new framework for recognition of heavily degraded characters in historical typewritten documents based on semi-supervised clustering. In 2009 10th International Conference on Document Analysis and Recognition. https://doi.org/10.1109/ICDAR.2009.267

This paper presents a new semi-supervised clustering framework to the recognition of heavily degraded characters in historical typewritten documents, where off-theshelf OCR typically fails. The constraints are generated using typographical (colle...

Computer network as a force drags its customers to share more and more resources while on the other hand managing such network recourses is a challenging job for an IT professional and perhaps becoming difficult humanly. In this paper, we have prop... Read More about An agent based system for activity monitoring on network – ABSAMN.

A peat profile record of recent environmental events in the South Pennines (UK) (2009)
Journal Article

Connecting for competitiveness: future transport in UK city regions (2009)
Journal Article
future transport in UK city regions. Public Money and Management, 29(5), 321-328

Britain’s major cities have fallen behind the best practice in transport of European and north American cities, and need to address this to compete in global markets. A number of potential mechanisms are available to UK cities, but only if central... Read More about Connecting for competitiveness: future transport in UK city regions.
