The Automatic Morphological Description and Classification of Archaeological Monuments from Vertical Aerial Photographs.
Redfern, Sam; Lyons, Gerard J.; Redfern, R. M. (OESI/IMVIP, 1998)For most of this century, aerial photography has been an important technique for the discovery, recording and analysis of archaeological sites. For many regions there are vast archives of aerial photographs available; ... -
Autonomous hvac control, a reinforcement learning approach
Barrett, Enda; Linder, Stephen (Springer Verlag, 2015-08-29)Abstract—Recent high profile developments of autonomous learning thermostats by companies such as Nest Labs and Honeywell have brought to the fore the possibility of ever greater numbers of intelligent devices permeating ... -
Emotion Tracking for Remote Conferencing Applications using Neural Networks.
Paul Smith and Sam Redfern; Smith, Paul; Redfern, Sam (The 21st National Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Science, 2010-08-31)In face-to-face work, discussion and negotiation relies strongly on non-verbal feedback, which provides important clues to negotiation states such as agreement/disagreement and understanding/confusion, as well as indicating ... -
Evolving Racetrack Knowledge in a Racing Game.
Redfern, Sam (21st National Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Science, 2010-07-30)This paper discusses the use of a Genetic Algorithm (GA) to evolve waypoint-based racing lines for computer-controlled cars in an online game. One goal is the reduction of developer effort, in order to automatically produce ... -
A learning architecture for scheduling workflow applications in the cloud
Barrett, Enda; Howley, Enda; Duggan, Jim (IEEE, 2011-09-15)The scheduling of workflow applications involves the mapping of individual workflow tasks to computational resources, based on a range of functional and non-functional quality of service requirements. Workflow applications ... -
Particle swarm optimisation with gradually increasing directed neighbourhoods
Liu, Hongliang; Howley, Enda; Duggan, Jim (Association for Computing Machiner, 2011)Particle swarm optimisation (PSO) is an intelligent random search algorithm, and the key to success is to effectively balance between the exploration of the solution space in the early stages and the exploitation of the ... -
Player-Traced Empirical Cost-Surfaces for A* Pathfinding
Redfern, Sam (Eurosis, 2011)This paper discusses the use of empirical cost-surfaces derived from substantial amounts of player-traced movements in an online vehicular combat game, for the purposes of improving A* pathfinding by AI vehicles. The ... -
The WCC Heuristic Evaluation Set - A Methodology for Evaluating the Usability of Web Communication and Collaboration (WCC) Groupware in Teaching and Learning.
Gormley, Paul; Redfern, Sam (EdTech, 2007)A growing number of workplaces and educational environments are implementing virtual teams (VTs) or intend to in the future, and it is likely that most information workers will become part of a virtual team at some stage ...
