Evolutionary multi-objective design of autoencoder for compact representation of histopathology images
(2021-08-01)
Deep learning can cope with complex tasks; however, it suffers from the crucial problem of high dimensionality which makes it intractable to learn the patterns and classify the data. Importantly, having a fixed model cannot ...
Echo: reconstructing gameplay sessions for analysis
(2021-04-01)
We created Echo, a tool designed to help bridge the gap between game analytics and video footage analysis. Echo reconstructs gameplay sessions from recorded data and presents them with their original graphics. A comparative ...
Group representation learning for group recommendation
(2021-01-01)
Group recommender systems facilitate group decision making for a set of individuals (e.g., a group of friends, a team, a corporation, etc.). Existing group recommendation methods mostly learn group members' individual ...
Empirically detecting colour: can we use solar cells as colour sensors?
(2021-08-01)
The purpose of this thesis was to explore the possibility of using solar cells as a colour sensor. Colour sensors already exist, yet they are either costly or fail at correctly sensing monochromatic light. Our experiment ...
Simulating a virtual drilling task using audio, visual, and mouse movement cues during the COVID-19 pandemic
(2021-04-01)
This work examined whether a real-world drilling task can be successfully simulated using combinations of appropriate audio, visual cues, and basic haptic stimuli obtained with mouse movements instead of a haptic device. ...
Enhanced knowledge distillation by auxiliary classifiers
(2021-08-01)
Deep neural models have shown promising results in various areas, e.g., computer vision and natural language processing, at the cost of high computation and storage resource consumption. These characteristics of deep neural ...
Automatic fall risk detection based on imbalanced data
(2021-08-01)
In recent years, the declining birthrate and ageing population have gradually brought countries into an ageing society. In regards to the accidents that occur amongst the elderly, falls are an important problem that quickly ...
Forensic electrochemistry: time since deposition (TSD) estimation of degrading bloodstains using differential pulse voltammetry
(2021-12-01)
Methods for bloodstain time since deposition (TSD) estimation are still in development. Hemoglobin (Hb) oxidative changes remain one of the primary means of bloodstain aging. This research explores the use of differential ...
Predictive analytics for maintenance activities in nuclear power plants: a feasibility study
(2021-12-01)
Nuclear power plants are known for their use of legacy systems and processes. As plants age, the amount of maintenance increases while resources remain finite, leading to unwanted delays, affecting the health of assets and ...
Conductive Si doped metal oxide fuel cell catalyst supports: understanding the role of Si content
(2021-08-01)
Current proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) catalysts commonly use platinum supported on carbon (Pt/C) which is susceptible to corrosion, thus a highly conductive and stable Ti3O5 doped by Si (TOS) conductive metal ...
